We're heading rapidly for a new record defeat in the Premiership, I see no reasons to be cheerful here...
No, not that one!

No likelihood of injuries to players to be involved in European matches?

So what has this game and team selection achieved other than surrendering a record Bath thrashing at Welford Rd???

It seems any result for Tigers simply does not matter anymore this season.

Comedy optimism, we have been shambles and a laughing stock for years, I don’t see LI or Worcester getting crushed at home like this, a joke of a club!! Hotel and Car Park on the way tho 👍

That was probably the easiest length of the field try ever scored in a Premiership match.

No, not that one!
