Just home. That was a thoroughly dominant win, we played them off the park.
On another day, without buttering our hands first, we could have scored six tries easy.
It's starting to come together boys!

A good test at home, but winning away will be key

Just home too. A very good effort by the whole squad.
Mike Brown’s turnover at the start of the second half was huge as after that the excellent forwards turned the screw.
On another day Kelly would have had two tries but he was back to his best.
Another poor performance from Sir who ignored several high tackles to stop us!
He also missed both sides knocking on!
Steward did incredibly well to stay on and Whiteley has probably shown he should be first choice until JVP is back. Wells too made a difference when he came on.
Personally I still believe our line out is far better when Wells plays!
Quins away will be a lot harder than Sarries today and The Saints really are marching on!
For now Happy New Year.

How many penalty kicks have we taken at goal this season?? Can't remember the last one.

Copied from Stopsy on the Unoffy to explain Itojo's yellow:
With regard to Maro’s yellow card, it was because he tackled Wiese having not retreated behind his goal line.
Healey was wrong, plain and simple.
OPPOSING TEAM AT A PENALTY OR FREE-KICK
When a penalty or free-kick is awarded, the opposing team must immediately retreat 10 metres towards their own goal line or until they have reached their goal line if that is closer.
Even if the penalty or free-kick is taken quickly and the kicker’s team is playing the ball, opposing players must keep retreating the necessary distance. They may not take part in the game until they have done so.
If it is taken so quickly that opponents have no opportunity to retreat, they will not be sanctioned for this. However, they may not take part in the game until they have retreated 10 metres from the mark or until a team-mate who was 10 metres from the mark has moved in front of them.
The opposing team may not do anything to delay the kick or obstruct the kicker, including intentionally taking, throwing or kicking the ball out of reach of the team awarded the penalty.
Thanks for that Stopsy

Big slice of humble pie now eaten that was a super old school victory such a shame we squandered so many bonus point opportunities by fumbling at critical times and in critical positions and that BY pass to the head of Wiese was a disgrace from a 9 of his class and experience. Thought Chessum was immense and Whitely had his best game for Tigers. Kata is the signing of the season worrying to see Freddie was seriously struggling badly with his shoulder / arm. If we can cut out these handling errors imagine just how good we could be.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

Was Healey genuinely arguing it shouldn't have been a card? I'm not sure how it's even a question, or why someone with Healey's rugby experience needs to have it explained to him.sapajo wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 6:24 pmHealey's constant and playing TMO does my head inparvacat wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 6:21 pm Copied from Stopsy on the Unoffy to explain Itojo's yellow:

Itoje had got away with murder throughout the game prior to his yellow, I think Pearce had his eye on him!
Re: Tigers v Saracens (H) - Premiership - Saturday 06th January 2024 - KO- 3-05pm
Great win. Great atmosphere. From where I was sitting the common denominator for the dropped passes was that the passer was the replacement Number 9….

his point was Jasper had run 5m, that's the rule for returning kicks not so sure it applies to offside from a quick tap penaltyTiglon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 6:33 pmWas Healey genuinely arguing it shouldn't have been a card?

Seemed relatively innocuous at the time but he did seem to be carrying it but braved it out for some time. Good job we've got an experienced fullback turned wing to turn on if he is struggling

Congrats to the whole squad and all the staff at Tigers. Things really are coming together. I really thought this season would just be Dan McKellar getting his feet under the table and going for glory next season.
We have a chance so good luck to all.
