I would love to do what he did, always been a fan of the French culture and language, unfortunately because of A Levels taking priority I have lost a lot of the French I learned at GCSE, therefore to go to France to play rugby and pick the language back up would be great!

Great to see Whitecombe get his debut, looks a lot leaner than from what I saw of him training on matchdays last year.

Fantastic result - showed grit and determination. The depth in squad that Tigers have now is incredible. Selection must be so difficult for Borthwick. If we get injuries as least we know the rest of the squad can step up. Onwards to Newcastle!!

Re: Bayonne - next opponents
Don't get me wrong I am very happy with the outcome but he took way longer than the allowed 5s and given how hit and miss the ref was I could see him getting pinged for taking too long trying to run 10s off the clock. He played very well though don't worry JvP14.. I wasn't having a dig

Yes he pushed his luck, but unfortunately 99/100 times ref will not ping you for it anymore.OakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 9:35 amDon't get me wrong I am very happy with the outcome but he took way longer than the allowed 5s and given how hit and miss the ref was I could see him getting pinged for taking too long trying to run 10s off the clock.

Re: Bayonne - next opponents
Very impressive win given the statistics: 33% possession, 25% territory, 15 penalties conceded and 3 yellow cards. Well done!

Leaving a bad taste - for the second time this year - Jordan Taufua returns home to find he's been burgled. Pity the scumbags don't turn up when he's home!
Happy days clearing straw from the pitch before the Baa-Baas games! KBO

Can I suggest if they find the perpetrators the police should give them community service. I have the perfect thing... Assist with Tigers tackling practice for a few weeks, would save o wear of tackle bags too... Would love to see JT, Wiese, Nadolo etc smashing them.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Or better yet when Nems and Kini are round for a cup of tea. Maybe it's time he moves to a different neighborhood, I'm sure the club will help settle into somewhere nice where he can settle for the next few years.strawclearer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 3:30 pm Leaving a bad taste - for the second time this year - Jordan Taufua returns home to find he's been burgled.

Re: Bayonne - next opponents
Its hardly going to help getting him to stay....do you think if he caught them it would be like the infamous burglary at Duncan Ferguson's house?
To win is not as important as playing with style!
Re: Bayonne - next opponents
Always a good sign to be able to win games that statistically you should probably lose. Clearly a lot to do if we want to keep winning though - you aren't going to win many games with 25% territory and 3 yellow cards!
Re: Bayonne - next opponents
So sorry to hear JT has been burgled, must have really taken shine off his superb performance in France, trouble is if you have been burgled once, very high % that they will come back again. Tigers please find him a safe home, the best, we want to keep him and if you did i'm sure it would help. I know a nice 5 bedroom house that has just become empty but I think it is rather expensive.

JT, move to near Nemani lives, its just round the corner from us and we work from home so will keep an eye on the place for you during games so you can stay at Tigers!LE18 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 9:53 pm So sorry to hear JT has been burgled, must have really taken shine off his superb performance in France, trouble is if you have been burgled once, very high % that they will come back again.

Re: Bayonne - next opponents
I don't know where JT lives but what I am certain of that there will be Tigers fans who live close by who could keep an eye out for him when he is away with Tigers. Let's hope our police do the same and they catch the scumbags involved. Not interested in how old they are, ethnicity, or their history, lock them up and take their property from them to the value of what they have taken.
Hehehehehehehehe
