Was just thinking exactly the same thing!
Ref is from their league, why is this allowed? It’s such a simple fix

Tigers look under-powered not helped by White killing any momentum at every breakdown.

Difficulty handling their mid field especially 12 and Navadi winning the breakdown.
Clancy is clueless at scrum time pings us for early push then resets theirs.
Half time they knock on before 40 minutes, scrum to tigers, but he decides its half time.
All to play for second half, I’ll be happy with a win at the moment

Well this is pretty awful (yet again), many don't seem that interested and I have to keep checking I'm not playing it in slow motion (Ben White must have been the champ at statues at school). Still Tigers are still in the game (just).
Nowadays referees decide matches, players by how much.

Agreed. 6 seconds left when he awarded the scrum. Fingers crossed for a better second half in all respects

REALLY!!!! Not interested, how about scratch combinations no gelling at the moment.
Many forecast this , I’m surprised tbh. But to claim they’re not interested is wide of the mark.

Clancy is also letting them slow the ball down constantly at ruck and preparing for line outs

So I got slagged for saying I wasn't happy with the team, underpowered etc etc? And I have never rated White. I just hope Tigers get an injection of speed off the bench.
I told you Blues backs would be mustard!

Watching without commentary is strange, not helped by the overall quality of the game. I still think we'll sneak it in the second half with our bench but it's not been particularly inspiring.

You did and you were right, re their backs, underpowered it would be nice to see all the forwards competing, only real Youngs , Wells and Lewis putting their hands up at present with a bit from Batley.
Navidi is giving Reffell a lesson at present

Not wide of the mark and won't improve much until Murphs is shown the door.

White did well there that Maul could have been lost

That was better. Lineout maul forces the penalty then launch a backs move whilst having the advantage. Good backs move and easy score in the corner.

Restart not dealt with though...

I think White has been pretty good so far, he’s only 21
so should have plenty of development potential. Not though much of Batley or Hughes so far. Positioning hasn’t been great but hasn’t had much of a chance ball in hand.
