I think he might rest some of the players who are going to the world cup.
Also aren't Thompson and Williams injured?

Both left the field with concussion injuries against Quins, no HIA assessment just straight replacement.

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Depends how their return to play procedures went. We'll have to wait and see. Williams shouldn't be playing anyway.WhitecapTiger wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 8:21 pmBoth left the field with concussion injuries against Quins, no HIA assessment just straight replacement.
For me the pack should be;
1. Genge
2. Kerr
3. Cole
4. Spencer
5. Wells
6. Thompson
7. Reffell
8. Kalamafoni
Doubt we'll see it though. Kitchener and Williams will start instead.
Re: Tigers vs Bath
Eastmond, Thompson and Williams could all play.

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Barff merit their season on how well they stuff Tigers.
Its the two days in the calendar that means so much to them. Its history. The whole club is pumped for this one.
To say its a non game is a disservice to both clubs. No matter what table positions - its honour.
For me Matt Ban' was the difference. If we go into this game half cocked then we will get a stuffing.
The mindset should be - next season starts at WR this weekend against the Old Enemy
Matt Smith as Captain please.

LE18 has kindly posted to correct my spelling mistake. I don't do that sort of thing anymore as spelling correctors and predictive texting occasionally embarrass us all. I have to smack my hand when people post "of" instead of "have". But if it makes you feel better??
A life long Tiger

TBH that is their problem. I could be wrong but I expect most of our fans in interested in a broader success than beating Bath on Saturday.wellstiger wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 11:48 am Barff merit their season on how well they stuff Tigers.

The reality is let's get this season over and done with... say our thanks and goodbye's to those moving on, have a holiday and then start to get our act together.wellstiger wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 11:48 amThe mindset should be - next season starts at WR this weekend against the Old Enemy
Re: Tigers vs Bath
I'm sorry Smudge, i'm old and spellings like steak just amused me, no offence intended, I also have to confess annoyance at the use of of, instead of off or have, its the way they speak that sounds like that, but that just goes back to an old guy's up bringing. Sorry again.Smudge wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 12:42 pm LE18 has kindly posted to correct my spelling mistake.

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Let me be clear...this game is about whether I can walk around with my head held high (unlike most of this season) or if I have to hide my colours. So, it may not mean anything to the players (doubtful) but it means a hell of a lot to me and my pride.
There is never any points for 2nd place...

Re: Tigers vs Bath
Smurf says he's going to play the leavers and the youngsters! Feel unhappy with not turning out the strongest possible side?
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Hell no...I was thinking more of the humiliation factor.
