Tigers v Newcastle Falcons

[wardy]

Forget the weather! Factor in the following:- Luke Pearce is sir, Wigglesworth is running one of the lines, and Terheege (who likes a bit of an interventionist role) is TMO.

[JP14]

Ooo that’ll be good an interventionist TMO

[HantsTiger]

Tough first half, seem to have the upper hand in the scrum and BOC is a causing havoc at the breakdown but man alive the lineout is a mess and some of one out running lines are laboured. We had real fizz a few weeks ago, with the forwards leading the charge but that's sadly missing.

Lets see how we start the 2nd half

Got more of a Bath feeling about this than a Saints.

Should come on strong in the second half.

[Rugbyflanker]

Got a really bad feeling about this!

[LE18]

Umm a few wrong results throughout the season, missed bonus points, all cost us, very disappointed, we were out muscled as i feared.

[Crofty]

Well played Newcastle but Pearce won that for them in the end

[Skin_and_Muscle]

"Try yes or no."

- Not the last man in the previous ruck
- No conclusive evidence of grounding
- Knees on the floor before taking another go

"I can't see any reason not to award the try" (new question, new answer).

The one we had to win. Sad sad day for the club.

[DeadlyDunc]

Toomua goes off and defensively we go to pot. Not entirely sure it was the best decision to change the props either.

Easy to criticise after the event of course and the ref was “interesting” in his interpretation of various laws throughout the game.

[ourla]

Well played Falcons.

Not a lot else to say.

[G.K]

Newcastle will play regardless. It's what we do that worries me. Kicking back to their back three and if the kick chase isn't spot on then we're in trouble.

It wasn't and lost us the game

[Big Dai]

The game is now decided by a bunch of primadonnas with microphones and cameras. Goodbye rugby. I once knew you well.

I've done with it.

[TigerAwood]

New slant on "Forwards win the game backs decide by how many" Should now be "Ref decides who wins and TMO by how many"

[Rugbyflanker]

Reap what you sow. Remember? I told you when he came in that MOC would destroy this club and boy was I right. That's some sort of set of records he's broke! Get him out now!!!
