Austin said in the 2nd half commentary that he thought Munster could get TBP win at Welford Rd.

Looked at odds this morning and for all on here noting Tigers at 6/4 is value... looks like the money hasn't followed as we now 7/4. Hills have us shortest at 11/8, 8/13 Munster. I think if your backing Tigers: 1 to 12 points margin at 11/4 with Sporting Bet is the one to be on.
Thankfully "odds" play no part in the game. I'm desperately hoping to witness a performance that the team and us supporters shall be very proud of. :smt023
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

The flaw with blaming the injury crisis is that we were hardly flying before the injuries.

Apparently Kitto is out after having his face cut open by someone throwing a table tennis bat. Judging from Thacker's snapchats this was likely Genge.

Owen Williams and George Worth have been dire

Owen Williams offers nothing in attack and has made so many unforced errors

Genge is great

Worth has just pasted the Munster receiver to force the dropped ball for Thompstone. He's been solid all game and is only 20.

Owen Williams is moving the ball around nicely and keeping us in decent field position. Solid.

Agree on Genge.

You are very easily satisfied, our attack is diabolical and Worth has dropped ball 3 times

So, in victory, Southern, would you describe yourself as:
A) Still unhappy
B) Less unhappy
C) Happy
D) More than happy
E) I'm so happy I'm off to Next or M&S to buy a new coat and then to my golf club for a snifter or three

I didn't care if we won or lost, I just wanted to see progress

And there was none, why would any back want to come to Leicester we can't string three passes together


Answer definitely A

I want to see good rugby and progress

Much better spirit, hopefully this will kick start the season.

Still daft penalties.

The forwards are unable to defend a driving maul, wrong body positions and lack of organisation.

Tom Youngs needs to stop moaning and focus on his own game.

Three? I think he's dropped one under the high ball and lost out on one other. He's the development cover whilst the senior players are injured. He's made all his tackles, got stuck in and linked alright in attack.

Clearly you're on your own with your views on Owen as he's just won man of the match.

We are far too flat in attack. Which is forcing a lot of the handling errors. It means that the passes behind the forwards to Owen is also really easy to read. That's a system that needs improving.

What concerns me far more is the mystifying decisions athat the lineout. Youngs struggled throughout the second half and should have been subbed long before being binned. Fitzgerald was largely irrelevant and his choices not to commit in the air meant that the poor referee would always ping us all the way to the try line as soon as we had to defend the maul. Kitchener should have stayed on.

Scrappy game but much more heart from the Tigers than last week as expected.
Munster didn't look as accurate as last week and I thought Munster's Zebo was very unlucky to be yellow carded, was right in front of me and no way could he pull out of that, the pace he was travelling at was absolutely unbelievable and he did everything right.
Clinging on really from Leicester's perspective and that final scrum was a clear penalty against with what was the worst feed I've seen for a while although those around me all knew it was coming and fortunately the ref didn't get picky.
A win is a win, no-one getting sacked this week campers ( :smt019 ) but seriously highlights how much responsibility is down to the players regarding consistency!

A win is a win and take it every time.
Williams every time over Ford and the proof is the kick. Memories of Stimson?
Worth played better and a few good catches but does need some leadership in positioning.
Referee played a blinder, only thing missing was his dog!

Saw something about a fight in the ground after the final whistle. Anyone see anything?

So you saw that game and saw progress?

Did you see that game and genuinely think we can win a title?

Mystified
