Re: England v Wales

Photo in today’s Times of Marler tweaking a team mate in the changing room. It’s obviously a habit of his which was going to cause a problem one day. 12 weeks may be the starting sanction, but Marlers disciplinary record is hardly faultless, so bet on longer. AW-J deserves some consideration for his...

Coronavirus: Sarries know best!

Better than the government's medical advice anyway. The RFU decided to follow the advice and so Mako Vunipola, having stopped over in Hong Kong on his way back from Tonga, was made unavailable for England selection, and we were told he was self-isolating. No he wasn't. He was training with Sarries, ...

Re: Were Exeter robbed?

Very poor decision by the ref, but the right result, based on the game as a whole. Ref panicked after failing to allow advantage from an earlier scrum, thus denying a walk in try. Thereafter, all his scrum decisions went against Exeter, right or wrong. Baxter showed real class in his post match inte...

Re: Change of Tune

everyone would join in. :smt045 Not everyone! Agree with Whitecap Tiger. Why do people, (LE18 for example), assume that everyone has the same appalling taste as themselves. “Sweet Caroline” is a soft poppy song, totally unsuitable for a team with a solid pack. Heavy rock, heavy metal a better fit. ...

Re: Kyle Eastmond

Don’t blame Eastmond for the way in which the players play. He has shown he is prepared to get stuck in, but has been frustrated by all round him, coaches and players, not providing the kind of structure and ball that would allow ANY back to perform at their best.

Re: Change of Tune

The old chestnut! One wonders if the original poster has bothered to read any of the légions of threads on this subject. The arguments remain the same, as does the song. We're getting Led Zeppelin?? :smt002 Look at my byline too! I don’t want a change, but the start of « Kashmir » would do at a pin...

Re: Murphy's "vision".

Seems like a lot of overreacting on here. Club and GM both state that day to day coaching is not GM's strong point. Club find and sign what the majority of rugby fans feel is a very good coach on the up to take over the coaching team. Players etc sing GM's praises when it comes to vision etc and fa...

Re: Change of Tune

^^ Yes, lots!

Basically lacks a strong rhythm, and difficult to loop sensibly. For two.

Re: Tigers vs Worcester

It hardly matters who plays, if the defensive structures are as leaky as last week, and the attack so unconvincing. Individual players may bring skills and vision, but as a whole, the team did not function last week, but it must do this week if Tigers are not to end the season as the true bottom team!
