Listening on Radio heard origin Country Road beinging played maybe now to get OUR Version recorded and played after / before game. Tom will most probably be cited for his English language slip up.

Fair play to Pat Lam, trying take amends here possibly? Praised the WR crowd, wished Tom Youngs well and us good luck in Europe next week. Good on him

He was quite complimentary overall, great fans, Tigers a great team but the scoreboard didn't reflect the effort and they were punished for some individual errors.WhitecapTiger wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 4:53 pmWaiting for it now. That result won't have done Lam's ticker any good
"We'll bounce back"
Had a few nice words to say about OTY and wished Tigers well carrying the Prem torch in Europe next week.
Did look a bit like someone had put vinegar in his water bottle

Anyone got the tackle stats? Moroni was like a rash!

Was a MOTM given? I must have missed it on the broadcast.

Ashton interviewed afterwards, he really speaks well. Easier to like him when he's wearing your colours
A slight reference to earlier 'troubles' maybe, when he's in an environment he likes and where he feels everyone is pushing and wants to get better then he's happy. Had no hesitation in coming to Tigers from the moment SB called him.
Possibly a culture at some of those other clubs wasn't as 'driven' as he wanted and easier to blame the player. Who knows, I'm sure it wasn't as cut and dried as that in reality, old news maybe.

Re: Bristol (Home) - 30th April 2022 KO 15:00
I actually really like this about him. I've heard a few interviews with him about this and basically he didn't want to be in a side where the aspirations weren't particularly high. He's admitted to making mistakes but he's said himself he needs to be in a disciplined environment where the expectation is to win.WhitecapTiger wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 5:09 pm Ashton interviewed afterwards, he really speaks well.

I think it was Ashton but every player was superb. I thought Moroni and Tommy were just brilliant and I love Hanro - never has a bad game. Ford's tactical kicking was on the money and Freddie dominated in the air. Ben Youngs had his best game for a while and dominated his battle with Randall. Wiese was awesome, the seconds rows were pretty much perfect and the front row set the platform. Harry Potter was outstanding and Porter seemed to make metres with every carry. Apart from that....no-one really stood out for me

I couldn't be at game today, great win and great comments on here, especially nice to read the good comments about Dickson.

A good win, but Borthers knows full well that next week will be much more demanding and Tigers’ defence will have to be much better than it was this afternoon.
Semper in excretia
Re: Bristol (Home) - 30th April 2022 KO 15:00
I agree but I think it'll be a very different game. We played a wide, expansive game - I doubt we'll play in a similar style next weekend.Robespierre wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 5:35 pm A good win, but Borthers knows full well that next week will be much more demanding and Tigers’ defence will have to be much better than it was this afternoon.

Execution of chances (lineouts in red zone for example) will have to be right on the money too, cannot afford to waste chances against a Province of Leinster's quality. Fordy will hopefully sharpen his kicking sights too, every single point will be critical.Robespierre wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 5:35 pm A good win, but Borthers knows full well that next week will be much more demanding and Tigers’ defence will have to be much better than it was this afternoon.
Sounds harsh after today's score/result but it's a reality. SB, KS, AW and the players will be better aware of what's needed than this armchair pundit

Whitecaps cannot recall exactly but was an expressive expletive I think it began with either a B or a F
