Tigers v Australia
Does anyone know if the Australia match covered under season tickets?
Re: tigers v australia
No it isn't, but ST holders get a discount if you book your tickets this month.
Re: tigers v australia
Very unlikely. It was all pay for the Boks match last year (which I recall we won!).
I suspect Wallabies will have been paid a guarantee to appear.

If it is anything like the Boks game last November - it should be a cracking game and a cracking night for all concerned. Bring it on.

Re: Tigers v Australia
Well considering how often they choke when it really matters they should have a free schedule next autumn.Duncan B wrote:Are we gonna book the all blacks for next season too!

Surely he should replace Pieterson!

Re: Tigers v Australia
As this game is sandwiched between 2 LV Cup group matches, something will have to give.
I suspect the LV Cup won't be taken seriously again this season, even though we have reasonably weak opposition, and it will again be the domain of the Academy squad.
Hopefully we won't be so injury ravaged against Australia, that we will again need to draft in cover from Nottingham.

Well, to be honest the nottingham players we drafted in did look very good, and it obviously worked out well.Tigerbob wrote:

Re: Tigers v Australia
I thought Craig Hammond was magnificent.

Re: Tigers v Australia
My comment was not that the Nottingham players drafted in weren't effective.
Indeed, I agree, Craig Hammond had a superb game, and wouldn't mind if he became a full-time squad member.
It was more a hope that Tigers would not be depleted due to a large injury list when the fixture came around, so that we could potentially put out our strongest squad of players, and give Australia a good run for their money.
Tigers have a good record when it comes to playing touring sides, and I would love it to continue!

Re: Tigers v Australia
Well with 2 LV cup games either side of the fixture, we could indeed be seeing some big names.
I reckon if we have a close to top strength pack, and a 2nd or even 3rd choice backline, we could definitely win.
