So what’s your definition of a stamp? I would say the application of the studs with force to to the body of an opposing player. And before you say that wasn’t with force, it was. Remember, a thrown punch does not have to land or be with much force to be deemed a punch.

Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
My Glaws supporting friend reckoned they were missing:
Heinz, Polledri, Singleton, Alemanno, Rees-Zammit, Harris, Varney, Balmain, Morgan, May, Thorley
Hrinz, Polledri, Singleton, Alemanno, Rees-Zammit, Harris, Morgan, May and Thorley would have made a helluva difference today. But, you look at the other side of the coin at the ones we have missing and they more than offset their absentees.
A proper team performance all round. Just need City and the Miami Dolphins to win and that's a fair perfect weekend for me!

Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
& Slater being a proper player just got up & carried on, it still grates him not playing for Tigers.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
Hopefully Wigglesworth doesn't get a long ban now.
Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
Doubt they will be banned, probably heavily fined and not selected to Barbarians

In relation to the BaaBaas incident?
Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
Surely they can’t ban them from club rugby anyway?

Absolutely, that trade of him for May has turned out as exceptionally poor value, sadly.Wayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 6:47 pm& Slater being a proper player just got up & carried on, it still grates him not playing for Tigers.
No, not that one!
Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...
I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
Can they get match bans for a breach of contract?

The big difference is that Leicester won and won well and so the bar is set.
Re: Tigers vs Gloucester - Teams Up
The question is, will those returning play like these (generally) new boys or revert to previous ways?

Bizarrely they didn't try that until Kelly came on. Taute is obviously a bit slower but the didn't fancy it. Woodward put the burners on and Kelly cut him down very nicely the helping Taute get the turnover.RagingBull wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 6:09 pmBit of both.Moose wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 6:04 pm How much was it Glaws not offering much first half vs us putting in a great shift in defence to close them down early? Line speed and quality of tackling was miles ahead of where we've been. I think that dropped off slightly in the 2nd half which allowed them back in.
I said before the game that Gloucester lack of pace would benefit us, our biggest weakness so far has been a pace guy running a channel between the 13 and Wing.
That being said the hits that did go in was with actual purpose and wasn't just around the tackles and lose a meter.
Generally the defence looked better but the side channels still the weaker area. Always difficult to defend out right pace but hopefully Moroni will help that.

If they revert then they lose the shirt, simple.

And Taufua, Moroni, De Bruin, Lavanini, Leatigaga.. strength in depth.. finallyWhitecapTiger wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 5:06 pm Not saying those today didn't play well but add Ford, Genge, MuriMurivalu and Nadolo into that mix and things look pretty tasty (long way to go yet and not getting carried away).
Youngs on the bench good backup when legs are tired late on.
