Re: Return of Champions Cup - Tigers v Stormers - Sunday 10th December 2023

I thought Kata had a good game but again our wingers were starved of ball in space until right at the end. Hope that we can believe in the contribution on the ball that they can make - but the result is by far the most important thing given the results elsewhere. Need to build on this next week and ...

Re: Return of Champions Cup - Tigers v Stormers - Sunday 10th December 2023

Don't know enough about the individual Stormers players but I certainly don't recognise many names in their team but do recognise some of the ones who are not there - Evan Roos, Manie Libbok to name 2. We should win this one but I am getting excited again with this cup and want to see how far we can...

Re: Farrell out of Six nations

My concerns about Faz getting a central contract have to some extent been eased as the contacts don't start till next season and he has only withdrawn from the 6N so will probably have returned to the fold.

Re: Wayne Barnes

As an ex-teacher who reffed both rugby and football school matches - I will give you this example. I also trained the U14 rugby team and we won the county cup many many years ago at Oabdy Wiggs ground. Several of the students played both sports at the school level and of course, were watched by thei...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle Falcons (H) - Premiership - Sunday 3rd December 2023 - KO: 3-00pm

Great result and a most impressive performance - felt really sorry for Moroni when in the last 5 mins he "chased" a kick in front of the Crumbie and to say it was half-hearted would be an emormous over exaggeration and when he ambled back he looked a broken man. Sad to see a great ex-Tiger...

Re: Farrell out of Six nations

Given that Smith totally outplayed Ford yesterday, it is hard to see that the captain's armband will be given to Ford but not out of the question as Ford is more likely to be able to implement Borthwick's game plan than Smith. It would take a change of plan from Borthwick to go with Smith as the FH...

Re: Farrell out of Six nations

I hope he enjoys the time away from the England set-up and I am sure he will be back but in the meantime - Next England Captain????? The easy choice in Otoje but who else would be in the running - Genge? George? Chessum? I hope that when he has decided on the squad he picks a player who the whole sq...

Whatever we do we must not underestimate Falcons.- They gave a good showing against Chiefs and could easily have won. Lets make sure that we can get another 5pts and then bring on the bench to rest important players.

Re: Tigers v Gloucester (A) - Premiership - Saturday 25th November 2023 - KO: 14:30

Based on what I saw over the last 3 games, I would certainly start with Kata and Scott in the midfield and leave the rest alone unless Martin is ready for a bench slot. Dan Kelly is not firing yet for me although it could be argued that he needs game time against the weaker opposition in order to ge...
