Tigers vs Ulster - Teams up!!
The Montpellier game is still in play whilst I write this but in my opinion we can out scrummage them buy their half backs are class - need some serious pressure on them as Pienaar and Jackson are quality. Would love to have a SH that kicks so intelligently

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
Not over yet but thought their back line has looked patchy
Re: Tigers vs Ulster
I sincerely hope that they will rue the missed bonus point tonight.
Come on Tigers: BP needed tomorrow!

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
No BP - yah.
Definitely beatable - stop the half back partnership and we definitely have the beating of them but we will need the back row to perform as Pienaar is better than YBY.

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
9 points and we are through can even afford to let them have a lbp now if we get 5 points tomorrow

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
Assuming we can do the business tomorrow .......(c'mon Tigers) ......... It is in the words of our American cousins - going to be awesome next Saturday evening. Glad I have a ticket - feel sorry for those people who seem to be mortally offended that games don't kick off at 3pm as a Saturday evening H-Cup head to head certainly floats my boat
Re: Tigers vs Ulster
To be fair, Pienaar is better than most 9's in the world. On another note, Montpellier's hooker was immense tonight.Greenwhiteandred wrote:No BP - yah.

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
You are not wrong - he's brilliant (Pienaar that is) and I can't disagree that the Montpellier hooker had a great game but he's not OTY is he

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
The Pienaar point got me thinking - he is "world class" and I am defining "world class" as being of suitable ability that they would get into a current World 23. Who do we think is "world class" in the Tigers team. I can think of one player who definitely is and I could think of at least 2 more who I would argue are borderline - opinions?
Re: Tigers vs Ulster
Would love to say Tom Croft and Manu but there's some serious competition at 6 and 13. having said that, OTY couldn't be far away and Marcos never comes off second over 80 minutes.Greenwhiteandred wrote:The Pienaar point got me thinking - he is "world class" and I am defining "world class" as being of suitable ability that they would get into a current World 23.

I also think Welford would be in with a shout: serious skills!

Re: Tigers vs Ulster
Marcus is definitely in the squad for me - OTY and Salvi are borderline - I was discounting Tom and Manu as they are injured. Personally Tom would be in my squad and as much as I love him - Manu is on standby. 13 is a very competitive position.
