Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
Umanga, Nonu started on the wing, Julian Savea is playing 12 these days, Bryce Heem is playing inside as well, only ever seen as a 14 when up here. Think David Havalli played wing early in in his career... The one thing that links them all along with Jordie Barrett (who can play 10-15 & maybe ha...

Re: Leinster mind games begin? - Champions Cup (A) - Saturday 06th April 2024 - KO:8:00pm
Just go back to how rucking used to be...a decent ref can work out what is a rucking motion & what isn't. There aren't rucks anymore it's a pile of bodies that becomes a Caterpillar, the number in the 6N with 5, 6 or more players of the team with the ball in a "ruck" with no opposition...

DMK seems like a bloke who spouts less nonsense than some other coaches, I get the feeling that he would be even more candid, but is not allowed to be/or is good at keeping himself in check. That for me is some progression & to be fair to the bloke bar a missed Quins kick he hasn't had much good...

Re: Other European games - 05-07th April 2024
RG Snyman has been ruled out for Munster tomorrow. One fan has posted that he's played in 1 Champions Cup game for Munster in his time there, with that game coming away from home. In total he's made 7 appearances for Munster and 11 for South Africa. Possibly the worst signing of all time, finance w...

Whitcombe is an interesting one as when he was understudying Genge he looked, not quite the heir apparent, but not far off.
As for youth on the bench today...not much option.
Bare minimum today is to make Leinster win the game.

You can flip that statement to say what have Cronin & Van Wyk done to get selected over Whitcombe.Rugbygramps wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 10:45 am Not sure what Whitcombe has done to prove at this stage of his career that he’s better than either Cronin or Van Wyk.
All this tosh about Mckellar not trusting youth

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
Not playing for the Scarlets could be seen as beneficial at present...
Always rated Jones, he might just need a change of scenery. It should be noted he has been playing a bit of TH as well.
Nothing against Smith's signing just personally rate Jones higher.

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
Ospreys have replaced Nicky Smith with Steff Thomas from the Scarlets, BBC report also stated Wyn Jones is leaving, destination unknown...think we might have signed the wrong Welsh LH.

Re: Leinster mind games begin? - Champions Cup (A) - Saturday 06th April 2024 - KO:8:00pm
I won't be watching, as I consider, and have done for some time, that this is a massively biased/fixed/uneven etc competition. I also hate the baloney about Leinster - they have huge advantages that can only be nullified by the big money French. I remember Donncha O'C commenting on how they'd never...

Re: Leinster mind games begin? - Champions Cup (A) - Saturday 06th April 2024 - KO:8:00pm
The whole competition is a mess now, it should have gone back to how it was pre covid, but 2 of the 3 competitions that make it all up don't need those extra games to some extent, a 10 team league obviously does...& unfortunately as the RFU has never been great at bridge building the English tea...

Once Tommy went off at WR it was game over.
Few round pegs in square holes in that starting XV.
Hatherell in second row
Kelly at 13
That centre partnership doesn't look right.

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
I would guess the Toby Booth connection might have had a bearing on a move to the Ospreys, plus there is a George North hole that needs filling there. Like OHC not sure moving from LI style rugby to Tigers's has been easy or possibly pleasurable. But they knew which club they were signing for and h...

If we are truly honest how many Tigers would actually get into Leinster's best XV, Pollard for certain, any others would be 50/50 calls at best & as that includes Montoya & Wiesse it shows the quality of Leinster.
