Difficult conditions in the 2nd half into the wind & rain. Plus Cockers used all the subs to give him chance to rest the front 3, Deacon & Moody in the forwards and Allen, Youngs and Flood in the backs.
It made the game a little disjointed but gave good game time to Johne Murphy as well as the subs and a welcome return for Lucas Speedy Amorosino.
Sorry Bleth but your commentary, expecially in the second half when you were trying to piece together a Tigers 15 who now play for other Premiership teams, was at times painful to listen to. Constant drivel indeed lol
There's no point busting a gut and increasing the risk of injury when you are playing in poor conditions. The job was done in the first half and a number of key players were rested in the second - great day at the office IMHO.
Not too sure how many matches I have been to this season, but i suspect it is a fair few. Anyway, at every match I always see Billy 12trees warming up before hand. Why is this? no other player seems to have to warm up then not play, so not too sure why he has been singled out?
Andy Goode wrote the Bible, and Sam Vesty replaced Jesus!
Listening to the game on the radio it was very apparent just how significant Lewis Moody's contibution to today's game was - we're going to miss that fella next year!
How sweet for all concerned if Leicester could finish the regular season with 2 bonus point wins against Harlequins and Saracens. Nothing is impossible and Leicester are in great order after that win at Newcastle today. Next game against Quins - bring it on.
