Got a bit of the Mad Dog in him
Scotty that is!
Full of Moody's heart and drive today. One of the few bright lights today. Certainly didnt miss Moody on the kick chase!
Missing him at 7 is another matter... Give Pienaar at go at 7?

Is Everard up to it yet? I hear good things about him, but maybe too young still?
Re: Got a bit of the Mad Dog in him
Would like to see either of them given a go against Leeds. Not saying Woods was diabolical but he wasn't great and would give a bit of competition to the shirt.
Re: Got a bit of the Mad Dog in him
Whoever plays 7 is going to suffer comparisons to Lewis Moody, the problem is Woods is a pretty average player who's hands let him down regularly. Tigers need their back-row to start performing because at the moment apart from Croft they disappear when the going gets tough.

Re: Got a bit of the Mad Dog in him
Likely the best candidate for 7 in the Tigers squad is T. Croft Esq.
And I was never convinced that Moody was a 7.

Difficult to fly off the tail of a line-out and harass the opposition 10 when you are also the main (only?) line-out option. Moody was not the classic 7, but did pretty well over the years.Bill W (2) wrote:Likely the best candidate for 7 in the Tigers squad is T. Croft Esq.

Re: Got a bit of the Mad Dog in him
In repsonse to the original post = I agree Scotty had a good (chase) game today - as did 36 whilst at centre.
On the Woods point - he does not seem on a par with most Prem 7s at the moment, Moodos or others ..... not sure Pienar is any better, but worth a change ..... worked today with Slater over Green.

On the first depends who is chucking it in.
