Half-time talk:

"Now lads, you're doing really well. That nasty oval lumpy thing? It's got Covid on it. Make sure you let them have it as much as you can. Don't handle it if you can help it. Don't even touch it. The winner of this game is the one who makes the other side hold it most. You are doing really well."

Over the games played since the resumption I think we see a definite improvement in fitness and an improvement in the line out. Our defence is still lacking, our attacking tactics seem to be completely absent without Nadolo and decision making is a concern.

Most annoying thing is we’ve learnt nothing about the backs, every time we get the ball we’ve kicked it away! What can we say about Worth or Kelly in the centres, don’t think they’ve had a touch.

I cannot understand how Geordan and the coaches expect to win games with no intention of attacking the opposition with some running rugby!
Tigers had nothing to lose yet again we play dumb rugby.
I’m trying to remain optimistic but must admit I’m glad I’m not able to go the matches at the moment!!

I think we can say that the coaches don't consider they have the pace or skill to run the ball and beat their opposite number.

Henry misses the kick 21-3 HT
Clear Yellow that, the lack of handling in the wet has been an issue for years for Tigers.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Think he doesn't offer enough bulk in the scrum for the Tighthead.
Doesn't really seem to be offering anything special in the lineout.

IDK would rather see 18stone 8 Chessum in his natural position lock with Henderson and Lewis on the flank.
Think it's still a bit early to write him off yet, Wallabies don't just hand out caps and with SB he has a decent mentor, lets see if he can improve as he settles.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

I like David Flatman but he really is rubbing up Bristol.
