Re: Premiership Week 18

Quins were fortunate, the officials missed a head shot on Taylor at a ruck in the first half when their communications with the TMO seemed to be down. Maybe a citing and another suspension to come then? :smt017 :smt018 Maybe, it took them a long time to get word on and Taylor off for an HIA.

Re: Itoje article

Its a very good read thank you, I cant agree with his Jeremy Corbyn support, but also very surprised that you failed to mention his schooling, was he a privileged boy to go to Harrow, did you approve? I'm sure you didn't! I did, like I have argued many times on here, Private education usually teach...

Re: Who’s your pick for Lions 2021

I think perhaps parts of this Lions squad is picked with the added need of versatility compared to previous tours.
It's not like they even know for sure what the situation might be around travel and quarantine requirements if they need injury replacements.

Re: 7th May - Sale Away

A few positives: - Scrum was dominant once again despite a few big names missing - Kelly and Moroni linked up well and looked like a good centre pairing - Steward looked sharp as did JvP - Muri had a great game and made some cracking breaks and looked strong in defense. Will be tough picking betwee...

Re: 7th May - Sale Away

I thought that Leicester were way off the Sale pace up front for 30 minutes, after this Sale slowed up a bit and it became a more even contest.
Decent game to watch though.
M60 looked fairly quiet for a Friday evening.

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2020/21 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD EPISODE VI: The Return of the Burns

I reckon Olowafela just needs to play somewhere. What does not fit now could fit in the future. The fact is that the Tigers could not defend and that was more than just one individual. Defence had to be the starting point, what is going to be interesting to see is how or if that evolves into somethi...

Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS

I watched our semi-final against Ulster and thought that Cooney getting injured was a big turning point. The fella was playing out of his skin in my opinion, it was one of those performances that you see every once in a while and can only WOW at. Great comeback from Tigers though to take advantage ...

Re: American Investors for Tigers?

The fact that you think of a rugby as a "fraternity" tells me everything I need to know . Did you know that women are allowed to play rugby now? And vote too? I bet you put your blazer on just to write that post, and then congratulated yourself on your 100th "glass half empty" c...

Re: PREMIERSHIP ROUND 17

Spot on again. You lot Simmonds bashing again! :smt015 He played really well last night in my opinion. Massive workrate and high energy that England could do with a bit of, and another player with the ability to play through the centres when Manu isn't available to truck it up for them. He isn't th...

Re: SAINTS AT HOME 24TH APRIL 2021

I thought it was a good game to watch and that Leicester might grab the win near the end but just too many errors today. Credit where it's due though Saints were decent and after a lot of disruption losing the likes of Painter and Harrison before kick off and the injury to Mitchell when he was play...
