You’re right but the away match vs Calvisano was on the EPC rugby website, but the others weren’t. Seems they nominate about 6-8 games that they will cover so worth checkingJimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Tue Jan 07, 2020 7:14 pmnone of the games at Welford road have either been on TV or streamedOakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 07, 2020 6:36 pmhttps://www.wheresthematch.com/live-rugby-union-on-tv/
Not on TV but as mentioned below it will most likely be live on the EPC Rugby website. They will announce which games are being shown within the next few days.

I agree. That makes a lot of sense.Hot_Charlie wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 9:35 pm I think it’ll be a fairly strong side named to play Cardiff, serving the purpose of continuity and also ensuring a relatively decent gate.
The trip to Pau I suspect will see a more varied side, possibly even the one we can expect to see during the 6N.

Re: Tigers vs Cardiff - 12th January 2020
I’d probably like us to put out the strongest team we can, minus the England internationals. Should give us some momentum going into the premiership games.
Bateman Kerr Leatigaga
Lavanini Green
Lewis Reffell
Thompson
White Reid
Eastmond Taute
Olowofela Veainu Thompstone
TPN, Gigena, Heyes, Wells, Coghlan, Simmons, Hardwick, Worth

We have to win against Cardiff and finish top, once that is done then we can dilute the teamLeicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2020 12:19 pm I’d probably like us to put out the strongest team we can, minus the England internationals.

Re: Tigers vs Cardiff - 12th January 2020
Strongest team would surely include Kalamafoni and Taufua. I’d like to see the England players in the match day squad, be it starting or on the bench to ensure we come away with the win. If Cardiff win this, the last round will be very tricky and Cardiff play Calvisano so will most likely pick up 5 points. They will know this and I’m sure will give it a go on Sunday. The key players can be rested away to Pau assuming we win this oneLeicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2020 12:19 pm I’d probably like us to put out the strongest team we can, minus the England internationals.

Yeah strongest team but those two definitely need a rest would have thought. Same for Youngs, some players will need to recharge.OakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2020 12:38 pmStrongest team would surely include Kalamafoni and Taufua.

Big Tomas posted a picture of a drink by a sunny pool on Instagram today, but it doesn’t make it clear if he’s there at present

Wouldn’t be surprised if he is. He arrive pretty swiftly after the RWC so these European games are probably a good excuse to let him get away for a week or two.

Re: Tigers vs Cardiff - 12th January 2020
Positive news via BBC Leicester sport:
Murphy confirms Jonah Holmes could be available again next week. "Jonah's back training with the squad. He's done a little bit with the team but not a huge amount of high speed running and loads. If everything goes well he may be in contention next week."
Will Spencer is available for the game against Cardiff, but Ifereimi Boladau is 50/50: "'Bola' played in the A League and had an exceptional game but got a bang on his knee which we've been managing since. He's touch and go for the weekend."

Take care of top spot qualification with in the group if at all possible.Strongest possible side - get into the habit of winning.

Re: Tigers vs Cardiff - 12th January 2020
Assuming nothing has changed from early on in the season “we’ll look to go strong at all home games and rotate during the away fixtures”. Strongest possible side for this one I recon.
