Pleased to see Malouf rather than Joe Ford on the bench - Toomua and Harrison cover 10. Agree that we have the better bench - just. I think a lot will depend on Luke Hamilton.
Happy days clearing straw from the pitch before the Baa-Baas games! KBO

Really looking forward to this match.!! The last home match I went to was Sarries at Christmas so a win would be good especially as Falcons may well put Saints to the sword!

Good team disappointed a breakdown specialist isn’t starting to be honest, I’ll be catching up on the game from the Barcelona

Here is what Will Greenwood thinks about him in today’s Labourgraph a propos his (WG’s) selection for the SA tour -Soggypitch wrote: ↑Fri Mar 23, 2018 12:09 pm Good side but very disappointed no BOC, anyone know what's wrong with him?
“7. Brendon O'Connor (Leicester)
This is a close call between O’Connor and the two excellent Curry brothers. Ben has been on fire for Sale while Tom has been injured but O’Connor - who learnt his rugby in New Zealand and qualifies for England through his grandmother - just edges it for me. He took Saracens to the cleaners pretty much on his own at Allianz Park and is a brilliant breakdown operator who in my view is the best openside in the country. Sam Underhill should go to show he can play with ball in hand, while I would also give Ben Earl of Saracens a seat on the plane.”

Re: Tigers v Wasps Sunday March 25th
Agreed. I'd feel a lot more confident with BO'C in the side or Evans. It's a strong looking line up but that back row looks a bit light and that worries me.
I'm absolutely desperate to see us beat Wasps. They've had a real hoodoo over us for a few seasons and I'd love to see us put one over them for once tomorrow.
I saw Marika Vunibaka play

Re: Tigers v Wasps Sunday March 25th
Bad feeling about today,our defense has come on leaps and bounds off multi phase play but Wasps are just too good off first phase,we have to be wide awake from minute one,can't be a slow start.

Re: Tigers v Wasps Sunday March 25th
looks like Manu has injured his peck, Jonny May was knocked cold
Re: Tigers v Wasps Sunday March 25th
A try from a line out, a missed penalty from bang in front, a try 'open goal' butchered and May and Manu off injured. And we're only 11 minutes in.
Re: Tigers v Wasps Sunday March 25th
Wow. Ford misses a kick in front of the posts, then Tigers butcher a 4 on 1 (and get turned over). Shame, although still 7-0.
Tuilagi and May both off injured. Yikes.

Murphy just said Manu coming off was precautionary, and described it as a "bang"
