Leicester Tigers

But we have shown this season when it's not working we just carry on regardless, Sale at home, Bristol & Irish away. Not every team is going to fall at the feet of our almighty driving maul.. As for WW on the bench he isn't exactly going to change a game..possibly shut the game down but on the ...

The selection of WW on the bench is very strange, I have a feeling we aren't going to be trying to play any rugby on Sunday. The lack of a genuine 10 for Bath in the starting XV is a bonus. Seeing how Weisse does against that back row will be interesting, Underhill doesn't miss many tackles. Why it...

Yes best 8 in the Premiership. No international age grade history. Considered hanging up his boots. I really enjoyed the expression of appreciation when Callum Chick put a big tackle on him in the first meeting with Newcastle a few weeks ago, and then Wiese went after more again and again. Proper r...

The things that excites me about the current situation is that for the first time in years we won't have two thirds of a squad leaving and two thirds joining. Of the 'key' players is it just - Le Bruin, Lavanini going? There will be others no doubt but they've barely played. Conversely just a small ...

Interesting post-match interview. Ben Youngs had started more games for Tigers than the rest of the entire starting team combined. The contrasting ages of the bench. Tigers: one 19, one 20, four 21, one 22, one 27. Connacht four 23, one 26, three 27. A Tigers front row, aged 21, looked composed agai...

Very sorry Traveller I'm obviously very wrong with my assessment, and no one else thinks anything like me. :smt022 No need to apologise. It's a forum isn't it? We express opinions, arguments for and against. That's the whole point. I often start with my contributions we two words - I agree - I don'...

If Jones wasn't so stubborn and continues to pick his favourites, I would accept him staying on, but surely he has to change his selection policy? I can only see the Sarries and his Captain getting less match fit etc playing in the Championship :smt017 Stubborn. I am not begrudging Wales their 6N v...

Whilst the Head Coach role is obviously important for England, I was initially thinking in terms of what options there were around to refresh the playing squad. Whether or not EJ stays on is a mute point in this context, although he has previous for some perverse selections. I’m not sure the talent...

It's not taken long for the other clubs' supporters on social media to revert to the "same old cheating Tigers" nonsense, I would revel in the jealousy except for the fact we're only 7th and that it's just plain hypocrisy and ridiculousness, especially from Falcons supporters baying for W...

This is Deano's comment after the Carreras 9 week ban for the 'deliberate' eye contact in the Wasps game: There was no intention to hurt anybody. He said he wanted to annoy the guy on the floor, which was Bassett, and that was it. Sadly, a finger caught an eye and big deals have been made of it by ...

I think in fairness I have to agree with Dean's comments. if you are talking about the Wiese incident, go cannot go down the road of giving cards based on the outcome, his actions weren't overly dangerous its a freak occurrence for Welsh to dislocate his shoulder I have to agree with this. “He land...

Barnes is the best referee in the world, but I do disagree with some of his decisions yesterday evening. Even so, to call his actions "criminal", "disgusting", "biased" and "awful" is just outrageous. It's not Barnes who needs to have a look in the mirror, it...

I have rarely seen such biased refereeing as from Barnes last night, he is a referee who I have the greatest respect for but his performance was shocking, consistently favouring the Scots, his refusal to check the first try was strange to say the least, his refusal to yellow card a Scot after 3 con...
