Re: pre-season friendlies

What!! No pre-season friendlies? How can a supporter go into a full prem season without at least one pre-season beer session. Yes I loved my Friday night WR warmup games! They are the only games I can attend due to work. The Friday night games in preseason. I had an excellent time last year with a ...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2019/20 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD

May seem a silly question but we have lost one of our 2 marquee players and don't seem to have signed anyone who would be a marquee player so who is our 2nd one or is that signing still to be announced? I imagine Ford or Cole will have been moved into the marquee spot to free up cap to spend on new...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2019/20 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD

He started against Scarlets and did well in the scrum against an international loosehead. About the only area we did well that day. Heyes has generally been good off the bench there's some work to do but considering he's only 19 I'd say he's doing ok. At that age Dan Cole was not as accomplished at...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2019/20 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD

I think Kerr should start as 1st choice Hooker next Season - we need to move on . The same with Hardwick - he needs game time to improve and get experience . For me Heyes is completely unproven at Premiership level - a few brief cameo appearances not all of which have gone well . He needs to start ...

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2018-19

Tonks and Hamilton would be decent signings i think for us. Give us good depth in positions needed. Yes Luke Hamilton was a good player at Tigers and what ever the reason he left, ~ in my mind he had more to offer in another season with us, but he joined Cockers in Edinburgh. In December v Glasgow ...

Re: Smithy

I hope he will be captain vs Bath, a true Tiger, his obvious passion when playing the sinners & his dislike of Callum Clarke speak volumes for the man. We await the appearance of "Dossers Grandlads" +1 :smt038 :smt038 You know - we buy players in but you cannot buy attitude and commit...

Re: A team up

The potential of being 12th is pretty rough! Agree though, maybe he’ll feature in the last 3 rounds. Might depend on Eastmond. If he's not fit then the options are running thin. Move Owen to 12, keep Toomua at 15 then bring the new boy onto the bench. It's that SAR into the back three, Toomua at 12...

Re: Positives

George Ford played out of his skin IMO! We have missed the creative spark of T Veianu at FB he gives us broken field threat. Tomoua at FB is a no go.

Also rumour that Exeter might be looking at bringing in Kitchener.
I bet he will flourish under them.

Re: Jimmy Gopperth

He's re-signed along with 4 others including TT and Johnson Cool that Wasps announced this on Xmas day! Was kind of hoping Tigers we’re going to do something similar. Alas not to be..... It's Christmas Day. Have you been at work today? Can see the logic of a player like Gopperth for us and 3/4 year...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 3

I really hope this doesn't block Harry Wells development as a player as I really do think he has the potential to be an outstanding Tigers player.
