Leicester Tigers

On a positive note I did think that Ben and Lawes were exceptionally good. Ford fantastic too. On a negative I was incredibly frustrated that once we had regained our lead we didnt make some positive subs and try and score some points. Bringing Cipriani on for 3 minutes was utterly pointless, and fo...

Having recently played National leagues level it goes on there. There is plenty of testing but people risk it. Somone who was at my club got caught by the tests and lost his teaching job and obviously his contract at the club as a result. Ive heard that a big Wales player who was out of contract for...

I'll be really disappointed if we lose Adam Thompstone as well. For me hes outstanding whenever he plays and should be a shoe in in our first XV

Every restart he put up was excellent wasn't it downbathway? You must surely be able to see that? I find Toulouses attacking shape baffling though, floods at his best hitting angles and dropping players off his shoulder or pulling it back, they just loop the ball from side to side and wait for an in...

Yeah, Croft played well last night, ran out of steam towards the end but thats to be expected. I'd keep him, the 2 years lost may extend his playing period further. Maybe wishing for a little much! Rehab from serious operations is hardly a year off in the sun im afraid! More of a grind than the reg...

Couldn't believe we kicked it out either. When chasing qualification you have to back yourselves (as we did in every other facet) rather than worrying about the worst case scenario. Other than that very good performance. Still so frustrated by the performance away at Scarlets, which may be the decid...

Burns performance tonight was him at his best. If only he could be more consistent then we would already have the perfect replacement! I still feel Slade is probably the closest thing we could sign to a young Floody though.

[/quote] They are such different styles of player. Robshaw actually does the work required at test level - Armitage gets played out the game by better sides (even us on current form kept him quiet for both legs of the Toulon double header.[/quote] I'm afraid I've got to disagree here. We kept him qu...

Henry Slade would be my ideal signing but I can't see him wanting to leave Exeter for Leicester at the moment sadly!!

Seems like the doors open for France based players to take part in the World Cup pre-season training squad. I remember Toby saying that he had been told by Lancaster that there were 'certain squads' he might be looked at in when he signed for Toulouse.

He's probably been our best back this season, certainly was on Saturday. Really hope he stays too.

Cockers says he wants to keep him, Croft says he wants to stay. On top form he is one of the best in the world. Unfortunately we havent really seen that for a couple of years in a tigers shirt. Fantastic in the lead up to the Lions tour and hopefully the World Cup as a carrot can produce that kind o...

I feel we really miss Floody this season. Williams has done a fantastic job, but I feel Flood was slightly under appreciated on here and he had a great blend of attacking threat combined with good game management. I think its disappointing we lost Bowden as well as he was a good attacking ball playe...

I think if Floody and Ben can get on the front foot and play fat we have every chance of it. This will come from the pack but with Allens form I really think he could benefit from some of Floods usual half breaks and be in for one.

Lancaster has confirmed Haskell is available and will be joining them, so I imagine he will start at 6 with Robshaw continuing at 7. The papers seem to think Lancaster is going to overlook Steffon. I cant understand why, hes in cracking form. And I can safely say Lawes wont be playing 7 1)because th...
