Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
I would start Manu and Eastmond personally.
Olowofela looks very good especially in attack BUT still has a bit to learn in defence.
Also think Tait might be injured.

Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
I'd probably bench Cole,start Bateman at TH and give Feao a runout too.

Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
I'd let Bateman concentrate on playing loosehead because that's where he's going to be for the next few months until Genge is fit. Cole and Cortes are both specialist tightheads and Fe'ao is supposed to play both sides.Rugbyflanker wrote: ↑Mon Aug 20, 2018 6:36 pm I'd probably bench Cole,start Bateman at TH and give Feao a runout too.

Is he, we might have to start Eastmond, only being precautious.RagingBull wrote: ↑Mon Aug 20, 2018 6:01 pm I would start Manu and Eastmond personally.

So many injuries!
As Gene Kranz, Apollo13 Flight Director, famously said:
"What have we got that works?"

Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
Any chance of a stream for this game? It was interesting seeing Connor O'Shea jabbering away in Italian even if we did get pumped in Treviso.

Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
Looking at the training pictures it seems that Kalamafoni, Spencer and Eastmond are all fit for the weekend.
Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
I’m thinking Fe’ao will be starting and that Bateman is not fit

Re: Final Preseason Game vs London Irish
You'll know on Friday. Mind you, it may well be that Tigers will save some firepower for Falcons.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.
