Tigers v Toulouse

[Tiger_Dad]

Two strong line-ups. Tigers to squeeeeeze through, so long as we don't give them too many early points

BTW - What's up with Smurf?

[GT1]

It's his knee TD he told us in Italy that it's being held together with tape!! So limited game time.

[Tiger_Dad]

It's games like these where we could do with his leadership and words of 'encouragement' in Sirs ear...

Just checked on East Midlands airport live & planes from Paris arriving, albeit 90 minutes or so late
Toulouse BE8326 due to arrive 1400hrs rather than 1100hrs

Fingers crossed Toulouse will be here for the beating

[bluntiger]

I would like to bet that the team that takes the field on Sunday will NOT be the team that was posted on the website yesterday. A bit of kidology me thinks.

I would bet that Manu will not be in the squad.

Pipkoi - Also flights from Toulouse to Heathrow & Gatwick yesterday/today so they may already be here!

Landed so match on

Mafi's hamstring gone. Huge blow hopefully it doesnt affect us too much.

Morris should've scored a great try, couldn't hold onto a pass which ripped the defence apart.

Nothing wrong with the pass - just couldn't hold it in the cold wet weather

[DaveRave]

Since Flood's penalty after a good start Toulouse are playing all the rugby* and we are conceding all the penalties. Thankfully they've missed all 3 kicks at goal so far.

*apart from one break where we dropped the ball.

[DaveRave]

A much better few minutes culminates in a Flood pen. 6-0. Come on!

[kingol22]

Toulose may be playing all the rugby but we are 6-0 up.

[kingol22]

toulose held up over the line then penalty Tigers from the 5m scrum, lines cleared.

[Tiger_in_Birmingham]

Will Toulouse push straight in any scrum? The only time their tight head doesn't go in at 45 degrees he's drops or pops

[DaveRave]

Monster kick! 9-0.
