Leicester Tigers

Tin hat on here… never been a big fan of Pollard.

Did George Barton extend with Gloucester? Agree on Burns, love having him back around the club, but not sure he’s your starting 10

That’s a good shout

Otere Black would have been high-ish on my list to replace Ford were he to leave, but he’s apparently signed for NTT Shining Arcs. There’s not many Prem options… Lozowski?

Forget that Ford is still only 28. He’s got years and years left at the top.

Welcome to the club Richard Wilks, now get Ford extended on a long term contract and nip all this in the bud!

The Telegraph now reporting that Sale are in advanced talks with Ford and confident of taking him north

Would he be able to take a marquee slot at Sale? Anyone?

Can we safely assume that if Mr Jaco Taute doesn’t show up in the squad this weekend that it may be curtains for him? Not a single mention of him since the end of last season! Sale in the PRC, I’d like to see JVP, Lancaster, Socino 9,10,12 with Kini Saumaki and Browning covering the back 3. Guy at 1...

Anyone know if there’s TV rights associated to PRC and if so what channel?

Looking forward to this comp. Lancaster apparently good for Nottingham yesterday, with Burns injured would like to see him given a shot at 10

Steve Hackney? Stuart Potter?

Looking at how SB has managed similar situations in the past, it may be a redundant point - he seems to know his team on Monday and works with that through to game day - but would be a major boost if MvS and George Martin were available for Bath!! Think Dolly will be involved for sure this week.

Still none the wiser!

You'd have to think - if that clause was correct - that he'd be in the back-up 3...

Someone put me out of my misery...

van Staden omitted from the Boks match day squad... is he eligible for Tigers Friday?! Wiese on the bench with Vermeulen starting at 8.

Agree on giving Reffell the armband on second thoughts. Hasn’t played too many minutes with the recent Bok bases back row. Be really good to see the likes of Whitcombe, Vanes, Ilione and Browning get a hit out if poss with the pressure off to a degree. Although am sure that SB will still have them a...

I know it’s a couple of weeks off yet, but really interested to see the make up of the squad Vs Sale at MWWR. Hoping to see a handful of youngsters get some time, as well as some of the guys who have had limited Prem minutes. We’re really starting to see the benefits of the like of JVP, Martin, Ches...

Hanro came over at the end of the game, arm pinned under his jacket and wasn’t moving overly comfortably, fearing the worst. Wells and Steward the stand outs for me today. Green also really solid. Was surprised by Sale, didn’t really threaten and only seemed to have the ‘Manu on the crash up the mid...

Looking at the cross over with the Saints and more importantly Bath fixtures, I’m wondering if Borthwick sticks with his recent plan of not playing recently released internationals. Can see Martin being released from AI match day duty for example. Positive news for us on Nadolo and Kini. Just hoping...
