Incoming cries of "It should have been Goneva" on social media.

Well deserved IMO imagine what his stats would've been without the injury.

The ungracious headdress wearers are all crying and saying at least Tigers have won something! Really hope they don't win the AP,they need to be brought down a peg or two!

TBH we are the only team AFAIK with a 'legitimate' name :smt002
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

It's disappointing how this thread titled "Veainu wins RPA player of the year" has gone off topic where people are talking about club names. :smt012

Congratulations Telusa,
I only hope that we have him on a long contract and not the short one Cockers told the forum about.
This award is going to make his agent happy as the contract prices zoom up!
I just hope he remembers it was Tigers that gave him the chance to improve his game. :smt023

Fantastic attacking player, and a deserved award!

Would still like to see him working hard on his tackling though in pre-season. The complete full back he is not.
