Backline possibilities:
Youngs, Ford, May, Tuilagi, Nadolo, Holmes & Veaunu, what a centre partnership that would be!
Tuilagi at 12? No!

Liking the Mamukashvilli signing, good bit of thinking outside the box.

Nadolo signing could be great as well. Looking forward to seeing him smash some defences.

I know theres going to be a lot of moaning after the next 2 games but I think these signings are showing things are looking up.

Good news then. People talking about Mamu's scrummaging, but let us hope he can also throw in accurately at the line out.

Looking forward to seeing Nadolo.

Excellent news, both potentially great additions, this probably means Singleton isn’t going to materialise but I guess Tigers won’t prepared to have just as a loan and also run the risk of potentially having both him and Kerr away for the Six Nations.

Do you really think May will still be here? I truly hope he is, but I won't be holding my breath

If the only deal available for Singleton was a loan, I'm glad he's likely not coming.

Nadolo is a great signing that will lift the spirits and generate excitement when he gets the ball like Telusa. Just hope he actually gets the ball to strut his stuff.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

YBY also resigns, if he’s on a pay cut that’s a good deal

Who says there is no Club Loyalty left surely the Young bothers and Manu have now proved to some players it does still exist. If they read this Forum and some of the comments made how easy it would have to say "stuff you lot don't seem to be wanted here I'll take the money and go elsewhere. I say thanks guys true Gents, Tigers and all round good blokes

I hope so, but Nadolo is better known as a wing so he could be May's replacement

Oh I have no doubts that he’s been signed as a winger so yes, he could be May’s replacement but also he may not be his replacement.
