Re: 1 Round to go what we need
REALLY hope you’re correct. Frankly, I simply want to enjoy the game without being concerned about the final league position. Recent Tigers results have been a bit stressful to say the least!Scott1 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:42 amIt's too big a turnaround mate I believemarkharbtiger wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:41 amNo I think Newcastle could in theory still overtake us if they win well and overcome the points difference...

Re: 1 Round to go what we need
If Tigers don’t qualify now then we really shouldn’t be thinking of Europe.

They have lol! Feel for LI and Gloc,both have lost out on RCC now and the latter were in form too and you wouldn't have betted against them winning their last 2 with TBPmarkharbtiger wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:47 amREALLY hope you’re correct.

Re: 1 Round to go what we need
I back Saints to beat Bath and Quins to beat Newcastle so reckon LI will still make top 8, in fact they could be very grateful to get 2 points against a strong Bristol team...Scott1 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:49 amThey have lol!

Re: 1 Round to go what we need
You think so re Quins? I haven’t checked the selections, but I can’t imagine they’ll put out anything other than a weakened team as they’ll be looking ahead to the playoffs...TigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:58 amI back Saints to beat Bath and Quins to beat Newcastle so reckon LI will still make top 8, in fact they could be very grateful to get 2 points against a strong Bristol team...Scott1 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 9:49 amThey have lol!

Re: 1 Round to go what we need
Quins seem to have put out a relatively first team. Probably to give them all a runout before the playoffs.

Re: 1 Round to go what we need
I’m not surprised Quins has, like Bristol and Sale put out almost first choice squads. I remember going down to Twickenham for the Premiership final ( in those days you became Champions of the league then could win the Play offs) the week before the Stade, Paris Final, we put out a full side to go on to beat Bath for the first time at Twickers. I also remember Pat Howard and Oz saying a few players were carrying knocks but it was important for both continuity and the psychological effect to win ready for the week after.
Good luck Quins for the rest of the season; Sale too. Come on Manu.
