Well I accept our lads look fitter than of old. Difficult to see any other changes.

Off the back of this any hope that we'll not be involved in the relegation scrap next year has left me. We are going backwards rapidly...
I’ve no doubt we will be,we will definitely be in the bottom 3 anyway

I'd guess because we don't have any attacking imagination.

Helps when he's in an absolutely dominant pack being spoon fed penalties.
He is part of why the pack is dominant. It's too easy to say that all the Tigers are playing poorly because they are "in a weak team". They ARE the team.

Disagree with some of that.
Kerr was playing awful
Wells been a improvement on chessum (Who granted is even more out of position)

Im taking a few positives. Covid will probably prevent me watching Tigers whilst sitting in the rain or snow

Apparently the biggest score Wasps have put on us in the premiership era, another record broken...
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

54 unanswered points, the coaching staff MUST issue an apology for this, frankly they should hand back their wages too

So pathetic, no wonder season ticket holders have left in droves. Every team this season have smashed record's against us. No fight, no ideas, no care, absolutely clueless

Barbeary was lucky that his dominant pack caused him to create a try with a one handed off load while being tackled by two opponents. :smt005
