Re: Other games - 17th-19th February 2023
Stains got the benefit of some very dodgy refereeing today. The forward pass before the fourth try was plain to see and the dozey TMO dismissed it. Then Healy , having called it, dismissed it..Wiese's yellow card wasn't even a penalty Sanderson doing all he could to keep his disgust in check at the ...

Re: Who should be the next Head Coach / DoR at Tigers?
Erasmus would be a disaster . How on earth can you say that? An international, world cup winning coach with a great CV. The only black mark he has against him is the complaint against refereeing and who hasn't felt the same as him after poor officiating has cost us? Any lingering concerns about tha...

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
So you don't want him because he is likely to bring those South African ways to Leicester?
Try telling that to Jasper and co.

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
Much of what is being said about Rassie was said about Steve. Cheap shot merchant, bully boy, Saracens cheater etc etc. They also claimed he couldn't put two words together for an interview. Yet he turned out alright. Look back a bit further when Bob Dwyer, the Australian world cup winning coach cam...

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
Rassie's off field "antics" shouldn't really be a problem. As has been said, he's a winner. Some would argue that it is his passion that boiled over in the face of some pretty severe provocation. Whatever the case, do we want a sporting gentleman who speaks nicely to the press and public o...

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
It's good to hear we are looking at coaches of this standard. A world cup winner no less.
After previous supposedly worldwide searches were damp squibs I was not confident.
Makes you wonder why Woodward never looked at the job a few appointments ago.

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
There was much despair expressed at the exodus of SB and KS at the time and people feared the RFU would take them all. So despite assurances to the contrary, now they have done exactly that. I agree with Big Dai, the club has been treated appallingly by the RFU. As for what happens now? Those of us ...

I was pleased to see Tommy Reffel get on the pitch for Wales. Unfortunately it was too late for him to shine.

Tigers support at home
As a season ticket holder for many years I have been aware of a slow change in the home support but watching an old game on video today, it brought it home to me just how much. The game I watched and greatly enjoyed was the last home game of the 1999/2000 season against Bath. The noise, from 17,000 ...

Re: Tigers v Saints (H) - Saturday 28th January 2023 - KO 14:00
Yet again we lose a game we should have won but for the fact our internationals were away.
I simply hate the autumn internationals and how it affects us.
The sooner they scrap them the better.

Re: England squad
Some interesting views on the squad selection. Personally, as a Tigers supporter, I don't give a fig about the 6N and look upon it as a ridiculous intrusion in the season. Football stopped playing the annual games against the other home countries years ago as they were meaningless. What other sport ...

He was one Englishman the "Taffs" grudgingly admired. I can't think of any others.
