No more premiership rugby until 20th Oct 19.

Save our last game at home vs Bath.
So do you welcome this or do you mourn it?
Its going to be a long summer, that said, the World Cup starts in September as does the Premiership Rugby Cup.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

After the way this season has gone I'm considering getting out of rugby and into something more relaxing. Lawn bowls maybe.

A nice civilised game of winter croquet pethaps? It's a beggar in the snow.

I don’t know my brother in law places for Leicestershire and they take it very seriously

Although they did get to the national finals

I for one am glad to have a bit of a break.
Then the WC, which I am very much looking forward too, then onto next season with my new seats in the crumbie. Looking forward to it, but glad to have a few months off.

I think the Premiership Rugby Cup coming before the Prem will work in Tigers favour. There's a lot of new players coming in, most of whom will be available during the RWC, and will be new coaches at yet to be seen position instilling new systems.

It will be a much needed and interesting chance to see the new signings mixed in with a good group of re-signed development players.

1.Gigena 2.Kerr 3.Heyes 4.Spencer 5.Green 6.Reffell 7.Thompson (c) 8.Liebenberg
9.White 10.Hardwick 11.Olowofela 12.Reid 13.Taute 14.Aspland-Robinson 15.Worth

16.Youngs 17.Leatigaga 18.Feao 19.Lewis 20.Tuilagi 21.Simmons 22.Costelow 23.Viljeon

I'd be very happy seeing that have a real crack in the PRC. We need to get some momentum early and mixing talented youngsters with experienced signings would be a good way to do so. In particular I'd really like seeing Hardwick playing inside Reid and Taute or Reffell partnering Thompson in the flanks.
