Re: Tigers vs Bath
Given the context of the game and the need to provide encouragement to younger players and a 'thank you' to fans, I'm really not sure about selection this week - so I'm just going with the 'definites'.....

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Fingers crossed we can pull something out of the bag for Smithy's last game. To be honest I wasn't planning on going until he announced his retirement, hopefully it'll give the boys something to play for.
Re: Tigers vs Bath
Has there ever been a match that has been more meaningless and played under more of a cloud than this one.
Re: Tigers vs Bath
How could Tigers v Bath not be meaningful? We played for the best part of a century with nothing more at stake than pride.
Hopefully, both teams will play an open and expansive game to the enjoyment of all.

I hope that steak was not eaten before the match, or they certainly would not have had a stake in the game, bellies too full!

Re: Tigers vs Bath
There is never a meaningless game when we play Bath.

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Let's hope that now the pressure is off we can see a team rather than individuals and the departing players can go in style and those that are staying set a tempo for next season.
Re: Tigers vs Bath
You are kidding yourself. This game is meaningless.

Re: Tigers vs Bath
I'm sorry if I appear negative, but the threat of relegation didn't appear to motivate most of them sufficiently to get their backsides into gear, so I'll be unlikely to be holding my breath. That doesn't apply to all the players, because some continued to try. We all know who they are and there wasn't many of them. Hopefully normal service can be resumed after a summer shake up.CitizenSmiff wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 9:32 am Fingers crossed we can pull something out of the bag for Smithy's last game.
