Yep, should have moved Martin to the BR when they brought Chessum on.

Oh well. England played well. Did better that everyone thought they would before the tournament.
Absolutely

Re: Tigers v Sale (H) - Premiership - Saturday 21st October 2023 KO:15:05

Underwhelming pack I always going to struggle against the likes of Sale. Getting Cole, Montoya, Martin, Chessum, Reffell and Wiese back will make a huge impact. Backs are always going to struggle unless the pack delivers better ball. That said the backs didn't look that menacing and too many handlin...

Re: RWC 2023 Fixtures and results

Dan Cole sadly looks like a competition winner who won a place in the team …something must be wrong with Sinkler and Stuart if Cole played for an hour and did what he did Sinckler looked to be struggling in the scrum. I actually don't think England have had a top class tight-head since Cole was in ...

Re: Play Off Semi-final - Sale - 14th May 2023 - KO 3-00pm

Two missed penalties to touch is dreadful at this level.

Loss of Pollard certainly did not help. Thought the pack fronted up well.

Re: Tigers Coaching Team - 2023/2024 Season

Everard was brought in as an academy coach, he's got experience as an academy transition coach which is where we might move him back to. Will depend on who McKellar wants and who is available as well as how McKellar wants to play. Everard is a really useful option to have on the staff with that ver...

Re: Tigers v Saracens (H) - Sunday 19th February 2023 - KO 3-00pm

Agree about West - very solid performance- and that’s what I first and foremost want from a prop Agreed West had a good game, but we could really do with Cronin back asap, he can scrum and is very good in the loose. I've also been impressed with Heyes scrummaging in recent weeks, but he definitely ...

Re: Tigers v Saracens (H) - Sunday 19th February 2023 - KO 3-00pm

One slightly unnoticed thing, Pollard yesterday with their intercept try. Never going to get there, never tried, but he busted a gut to run the inside line and stop it being under the posts. Genuinely think if that conversion is landed they go for points not the corner with 6 minutes to go and a wh...

That was pretty much self inflicted, dropped passes, missed kicks and lack of thought.
