At least one part of Tigers seems interested in forward planning!. :smt002

Tent? Tent??? What happened to the straw?!
Time moves on. Thank you for your service. You are redundant. Did you get the watch?

Irony is that if we lose, that will probably knock the Saffas out of the competition....every cloud has a silver lining...

Decade ago this weather would have been right up our street. These days I suspect we are better with the sun on our backs.

Apparently, there's a last minute change! Tuilagi is replaced by Gareth Owen.
No reason for the moment!

If Gareth Owen is fit why on earth isn't he getting the 22 shirt ahead of Joe in the first place?

Presumably because MOC wants a specialist 10 and place kicker on the bench irrelevant of whether he's out of his depth or not.

Busy down WR then. Conditions should suit us but 0-7 already. When did our forwards last turn up and put in a shift?
