Re: Rob Baxter to be sacked

For SouthernTiger you are completely wrong about Harry Thacker if he is not premiership material, why did so many (4 to my knowledge) premiership clubs make enquiries as to his availability in the last off season? I'll tell you why they watched him when he played against therm and were so suitably ...

Re: Rob Baxter to be sacked

Southerntiger - tell that to any of Jack Roberts, George Catchpole, Will Evans, Harry Thacker and Harry Wells, and ask yourself where the equivalents of Ben & Tom, Tom C, Dan and Manu are from other clubs - Jack Clifford is 23 already so hardly this year's graduate. And while you are about it te...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread

This from twitter @midi_olympique claims that Mourad has made it his "personal challenge" to bag Ford & bring him to the Mayol The bell has tolled, and not for Tigers. Only the RFU stands in his way (well, England caps, or so we are led to believe). Personally, quite happy without For...

Re: Seven matches in - reflections

Couldn’t disagree more about Bath. They have achieved what they have so far without their starting backrow – Denton, Louw and Faletau. Also Fruean will tear up as long as he stays fit and Watson has barely played for them either. I think Bath are outsiders for the title, their starting XV is frighte...

Re: Bring on Sarries! - Teams Up

Am so tempted to write a template for posts on here, so many one-note trumpet solos. Then some could just post "No 4" or "no 7", doom posts by number. One has to go back to the days of the (then) much derided Flood and co for the remnants of the 'never-say-die' collective effort...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread

Bloke called Waldrom breaking through tackles for fun for Exeter against Bath

Banahan would be a more effective 8 than any of our current options

Morgan over Fearns

James Chisholm, the 21 year old, has looked very good for Quins

Re: Bring on Sarries! - Teams Up

Anyone who is saying Jack Roberts had a good game today are clueless Never drifts in defence, culpable for Wyles try and made no impact in attack. Are we seriously using a 5ft 8 centre as a crash ball merchant? I dread to know what Tolofua is going to do to Tom Young's in the scrum next year. Man vs...

Re: The Play Offs are short changing the supporters

I find some of these views absolutely baffling. Removing the playoffs would punish teams who produce England players and incentivise teams who have non-international players i.e. Has Beens like matfield and de VILLIERS. Also I think we are extrapolating a Leicester problem to the whole of England, L...

Re: Could we afford a Halfpenny??

Halfpenny is Not worth the 500k a year Toulon are paying him.

We need a ball carrying 8 and a quality 12.

Veainu is good enough at 15

Re: Does Cockers get the boot if we get smashed again this w

Good performance, limited attack but got the points. No need to see if we can cut the mustard away from home. This week is the best possible time to play Sarries with all their injuries Do you think we are in a better place regarding injuries/selection after yesterday? We are than Sarries - no Asht...
