Worcester (A) 16th October - 3pm

Confession time - I posted here at the start of the season expressing some doubt as to whether Nadolo was quite right for Tigers, and especially how he might struggle to adapt to rule changes. Happy to go on record now to admitting how little I know!

This^, Worcester desperately need a new defence coach on this viewing

Need a new everything.
2 British and Irish lions and highest paid in their positions and it’s the players signed from the champ that are standing out for me

Agreed, when I saw they signed Duhan I laughed, exactly what they didn't need

Could have gotten 2 really good locks and maybe have some money spare what with Covid plummeting the wages of most non top tier players

5 from 5 awesome!

how long since we've had start like that?

Not since 1997

What was the team that day?

Points difference between Tigers (1) and Bristol (12) after 5 games?

Here's a stat just 2 years ago Tigers finished the season with
6 wins, 1 draw, 15 loses, 1 TBP and 29 points
This season so far
5 wins, 0 loses, 3 TBP and 23 points

Is that all?

What a job Borthwick is doing. Don't know how long his contract runs for but whatever it is, extend it! He's done an incredible job in no time.

2023 scares me! I'm not sure if Rugby works like football but extend his contract now and if England do come calling they have to give us silly money!

That’s a great stat RB! Highlights both how bad we were and far we have come!

Amazing to see the boys playing well, supporting each other and enjoying their rugby! I bet OP is buzzing in training and I can’t wait to see them at home again next week!

[OakhamTiger32]

7 tries to none today away from home.. and 7 separate scorers! And we had one chalked off and left I’d say at least 3 tries out there.. a proper demolition

In other stats news, re: Tigers away wins in the Premiership:

2020-21 season = 3
2021-22 season (by mid October) = 3

Not that I’m getting excited, mind.

[OakhamTiger32]

Another pretty impressive stat worth mentioning is regarding our defense.. clearly our attack was fantastic as we scored 7 tries and won 48-3 but during the first 15 minutes of the second half Worcester had 89% possession and 70% territory.. we made 57 tackles in that period and didn’t concede a single point

[DeadlyDunc]

Unbelievable result - didn’t expect us to lose but equally didn’t expect this scale of victory

Ominous for Warriors
