And now we're losing thanks to another complete gift.
Unless it's disallowed for a high tackle.

Dan Cole is starting to worry me, he is not the player he was is he.

Saints try. 3 points in it. Either side could take 5 points from this. Unthinkable after 25 minutes.

Another dreadful turnover turns attack into defence. Another penalty levels the score. What on earth are they playing at?
And now Burns misses a long range drop goal with 3 minutes left. There was plenty of time to get closer.

We seem to be lacking a leader on the park.
27-27 and it's pretty much in our hands

PENALTY TIGERS! on the 22. 10 seconds left.

Burns nails it. We win! A second half that was exciting for nearly all the wrong reasons. I'm off to empty my underpants.

4 points. 3 try's after 20 minutes should have led to a BP. Don't think cockers will be very happy.

Phew, we did everything to give that away, worrying to lose Owen.

It was the careless mistakes and soft penalties that let Saints into the match. Tighten up on them and Tigers will be a tough team to beat.

Clear water now between the top four and the rest.

All I want to say is hat I'm in a nice warm pub and the beer tastes even better after that!

I'm sure that plenty on here will want to dissect the game but let's not forget we just beat our local rivals with the last kick of he game having lost key player to injuries and having to front up with 14 men in the 2nd half. Does it get any better than that as a Tigers fan?

Now all eyes on hoping Munstet at least deny SF 5 points. 10-0 so far but only 1 try and it must be half-time.

As others have said we did our best to loose that by playing too much rugby. Lawes was just dull at the end ok Wayne may have been conned a little but he should never have put himself there.
Injuries wise likely broken jaw for Owen Williams, O'conner looking to be icing his hamstring both were big losses on the day.

Early injuries caused a lot of havoc on our game plan.

How Jammy are the Tigers!! And same old Leicester, always cheating!!

Deliberately tripped Courtney Lawes up as he went through the ruck to kick the ball out, and Barnes a Tigers fan typically missed it, incompetent as usual!!

Also Tiggers should play tag Rugby, high tackle what a laugh, even Healey / Kay said it was soft!! Paul Hill scored a perfectly good try!!

We'll see you at a packed Gardens, where hopefully you won't have 16 men with Wayne Barnes!!

Come on you Saints!!!!! :smt027
