Tigers v Sale

Re: Tigers v Sale
Harrison will be back on the bench probably, Wells performed better than Kitchener when he came on despite the latter running the lineout quite well. Stevens injury is disappointing as Youngs is nowhere good enough at the moment.

Everything will be alright again, Mavis9 can go on the Tigers To Be Crowned Premiership Champions topic and tell everyone that she told them so, a Young'un will tell us it's all back on track and Diamond will blame the ref, all back to normal!

Re: Tigers v Sale
Would play Eastmond and Owen in the centres
Re: Tigers v Sale
I'd be amazed if Eastmond doesn't start.

I don't know what to think. Maybe I'll give up thinking......let's leave that to the experts.

Re: Tigers v Sale
I don't know what to think any more either, we get battered even with our full strength squad so what's the point pondering over who plays lock or blindside.

Yet another Sunday game and I do hate them,

Re: Tigers v Sale
...who knows what’ll happen with Sale. I think we all thought the last game would be a win. I hope we do NOT add significantly to the 158 points already conceded. Just can’t believe that number after 4 games: hope it’s pinned up somewhere prominent at Welford Road...
Re: Tigers v Sale
Until someone puts some structure into the shambles of what is supposed to be a defence, then the 'A" column will continue to increase rapidly. With players like Ross etc, Sale will be chopping at the bit and probably take the 5 points.
Keep going like this and come February the Tigers will be fighting to avoid the relegation place, Europe goodbye by Christmas and top six finish just a dream!! IMO, clear the decks and get a fresh set of coaches in that really do know how to run a Prem side. The 'nepotic' attitude of the club has failed the supporters and players alike for too many seasons to the point of embarrassment.

Re: Tigers v Sale
We need a defence coach. We need some luck with injuries. And the BoD need to accept they've caused the whole scenario by failing with the provision of top coaching staff from when MOC left the first time.

Re: Tigers v Sale
We also need the players to buy in to whatever that defence coach requires.
Without that buy in from players a coach is left with two choices, get new players or get a new job!
I get the impression certain players here are only prepared to buy in to whatever their Dad might tell them!

Re: Tigers v Sale
Tempting fate again but maybe things aren't all that rosey at the Sharks
Of course the article is very one sided and Diamond isn't everyone's cup of tea.
On another note is rumoured Dorian West is going to be given a job there.

Dorian confirmed. That's Sale's staff beer allowance doubled, then........
