Tigers v Northampton (A) - Saturday 29th April 2023 - KO: 2-00pm

[Rugbygramps]

Blimey Saints really do want to win, guess their side picked to boost their gate unlike ours which was a very poor turn out, cannot have paid us especially as it was a Monday night after a game on Sunday.

Maybe but I think it’s as likely e fact that this is their last competitive game before a likely semi at Saracens

That was a good tackle from Finn Carnduff on a full tilt Juarno Augustus in the buildup to Saints 2nd try

There's one thing for sure, Saumaki and Browning is not a wing combo for defence!

[kpj tiger]

As expected Saints making a lot of meters out wide, Browning's defensive positioning isn't great but he's actually put a couple decent tackles in. The young forwards have shown up really well so far too.

[RagingBull]

Big ask for the backs against that saints back line

Forwards extremely promising though

[kpj tiger]

Illione with a great break and Carmichael breaks 2 tackles to get over from 10m out

Halftime 31 Saints : 14 Tigers.

Double plus ungood.

I missed the first half, what are the chances of a second half recovery and win?

I was thinking the same. Nowhere near Premiership standard in defence. They are both getting gassed by nearly everyone, and they are constistantly standing in the wrong place! I can see them both leaving. I would wish them the very best, but we won't miss them.

Cokanasiga also not looking great IMHO. He is also getting gassed by the whole Saints backline.

If they take more of their 1st teamers off, maybe. Our defence today reminds me of the Saints first team!

30 or so seconds in to the 2nd half and they're knocking on the door already. Squeaky everything time.

I think Browning is quick enough he's just positionally all over the place in defence, I'd keep him given he'll likely be on peanuts. Cokanasiga to me is a 12 that can fill in at 13, he seems to bite a bit in defence leaving the outside a bit exposed
