Struggling to see the alleged attempted wrap tbh.

Has now! But it'd be nice to see what he can do from further out

Have you seen the weather.

Might not be to everyone taste but this has been an A1 display of wet weather Rugby. Score 40 points on a day like this is top level rugby.
10 minutes to go 5 match points and all the big guns off uninjured

Brown puts the icing on the cake and despite having a bandaged head gets his head slapped by all and sundry. Lucky guy.

7 tries, in the rain, win by 44, nobody injured, nobody facing a disciplinary, got to be happy for that, break out the premium spirit of choice!
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?

Newcastle 14/1 to win

Handicap betting, Tigers to win by 19 points
I know the etiquette these days is to say “all games are tough and take nothing for granted, etc.” - but in reality Tigers should probably be disappointed if they only win by 19. A side with aspirations to get to top 4 should be aiming to win this by 30 or 40.
Looks like you underestimated us in the end there Chris...
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Yes and I think that’s OHC 4 tries in the last 3 games.

It was a bit one-sided eventually, but well done team.

Remy time.

It would have been easy to take the foot off the gas when the subs came on. But momentum was maintained.

Credit to the bench.

Seven points separate the top seven teams in the table...it's going to be interesting.
