Death by pragmatism. DMK has to have more than this up his sleeve, because the rest of the league already figured us out when Borthwick was still here. We're always told that this approach is driven by what the data says. Well... Tigers analysis team, please can you add a note to last night's data t...

An awful performance with the most limited game plan you'll ever see. All we had was box kick after box kick. The kicks weren't any good, the chase wasn't any better, and Glos handled them comfortably.

And yet... we just carry on doing the same thing over and over.

I'm furious.

Half a dozen games left, I don't suppose we need depth beyond Cole, Heyes, Hurd and Hoyt.

With ball in hand, Cokanasiga is deadly. Him, Kata and Perese feel similar stylistically.

The big challenge for him is the tactical side of his defence. There have been some big holes in our line when he's played.

Over to you, Matt Everard!

DMK - Dan McKellar

And an oldie but a goodie...

TTTE - Thomas (The Tank Engine) Waldrom

I've been trying to find out how many senior games Beets has played, but can't seem to find anything. The only stats are for his SA U20s appearances.

Anybody know?

I'm very excited by signing SA's best U20 player.

The context of our squad is important, though. I don't think we can 'make do' with Hanro or Hatherell as a no.8. We need a starter. If Beets is that already (and CCS pretty much is for Quins), then it could be a shrewd signing.

Your so right they just can’t all play together it just doesn’t seem to work, the back row look so much better with a breakdown threat in it, obviously raffell it 1st choice, but I think it looked better when ilione came on aswell as he did attack the break down but offer a slightly wider runner. I...

My niggling worry with this DMK team is that we have one plan of attack: box kick and bosh. When we're physically bettering teams it's simple and effective. But when we're not more physical (Sale, Sarries, Exeter, Europe, tonight), we're reduced to almost no threat. Just waiting for a dropped box ki...

Tigers offered Scott a deal on reduced terms and he refused. That might also point to us having centres signed up for next year who are considered higher picks...

Yep, Scott is moving back to Scotland.

Any ideas as to whom the club selected to be on this Forum? I was wondering the same thing, appears to have gone very silent on this. You would’ve expected some of the “new offerings” that Andrea has been emailing about might’ve been discussed with the new forum as it’s supposed to represent a cros...

Brave to come out with that prediction when we know there's likely 2 more extensions announced today plus rumours of other centres going...

It's come from a reliable source!

Matt Scott will be leaving and returning to Edinburgh (the city, not necessarily the team) at the end of the season.

Good news about Whiteley - he's been one of our most consistent performers. Invaluable in the absence of YBY and JVP. Cronin and van Wyk will both be 33 by the start of next season, so I'm happy if we give a contract to one of them and aim to get in a replacement in their mid-/late-20s. That'd compl...
