Never Give Up, Never surrender! :smt005

Lots of doubts crept in during that game but the lads came through in the end, somehow. WHAT a finish from Saumaki, WHAT a pass from Kelly.

Wiese's ball carrying was immense.

Connacht not fit enough to resist a final onslaught. Their supporters can boo all they like, the officials got that last call spot on, fine margin maybe but never in touch.

Roller coaster stops, the grin carries on. :smt026 :smt026

Was shouting in the refs face after the final whistle about how Saumaki was out (he clearly wasn't) and that he should apologise for getting it wrong, thats what I caught anyway

What's the betting there's no follow up scrutiny, as there was with Tom Youngs.

Always funny reading back this forum at the end of the game - oh yea of little faith :smt018

Never a dull moment being a Tigers fan :smt026

Credit to Connaught though. They’ve given us two very tough tests.

Big shout for Kini. Our most under- rated player ?

Well I never. The Tigers roller coaster might frequently make its passengers feel sick and want to get off but it's never a dull ride these days.

Yup. Haven't seen the teamsheet for the Bordeaux game but it's got a whiff of 2018 about it, I'm sure... :smt004
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?

The worst performance I have seen this year, wild passing. dumb penalties, incompetent and fumbling...
.. and then 10 mins at the start and the end . Excellent - we love 'em.

Charlie Clare and Hosea Saumaki deserve huge praise. Changed the game for us.

The bench made a big difference especially Kelly, his running and passing was great today and had their defence in bits
