Having watched both teams play this weekend I'd say we might as well put the kids out. If Marler and Sinkler get their hooks into our scrum it could be a cricket score.

The only thing I'm NOT worried about is the scrum,we had them on toast at WR,they didn't wanna scrummage in the end. As for the rest,a poor second best in everything. I'll be surprised if we get a BP out of it. Let's hope Gloc do us a favour,my nerves couldn't handle a last day shootout!

We have to go for the win and pick up anything we can and not have to rely on other results....put out the best available team and not send just the youngsters.
Gloucester will want to get back to winning ways and finish on a high in their final home game of the season....nerves cant take much more....lets sort it on our own terms.

Well, I will need a few stiff whiskies en route to this match. Not driving of course.

Can't make a Friday night otherwise i'd go. Think it's beyond us but will be watching from afar and getting behind the lads in the simple hope they pull something out a hat...any hat will do.

Like Scott1 said, not worried about our scrum, Sinckler or Marler...far bigger concerns that could all fall apart.

Hope Blommetjies gets another go, loved his attitude running kicks back.

Would probably leave Veainu on bench and start Aspland-Robinson on wing, works both ways I know but he might have some inside knowledge and a point to prove.
Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

Genge will do a mental and physical number on Sinkler, Sinkler will get binned. DC will sort out Marler no probs! So it will be up to the back five forwards to do their bit, which for me is where the Tigers game falls down?

Well I hope I'm back here Friday night having been proven wrong, but our front three looked badly unsettled vs a newly promoted team and theirs got right under the skin of the current champions.

I don't think we need to worry too much.

Whether we get 10 points or 0 points from the next 2 matches, we won't get relegated as Falcons won't pick up 10 points.

Sorry but why do Newcastle Falcons need 10 points? 9 would do if we lost both games. As I’m off to Quins I want Tigers to really turn up and put any relegation fears to bed. This team has the talent but recently, apart from Newcastle away and Wasps at home, has not played as a team. If, as I hope the players do, they really care about the club, they will surely want to get two wins from the last two games.
Genge and Cole have to really step up because Mahler and Sinckler will be out to wind both up.
If they need to listen to anyone, replay the Les Cusworth interview on Radio Leicester.
Come on Tigers show all the critics that lessons have at last been learned.
