Pre-season friendly - Nottingham - 1st September 2023 KO: 7:30pm

[No6_Flanker]

Does anyone know if the game will be streamed anywhere?

[johnthegriff]

I see that the friendly is preceded by an Academy match v Sale.kick off 4.00pm. Only North Stand open for that match, need to move to your regular seat for the Nottingham game.

Are we expecting a team announcement at midday today?

A few more ex-Tigers on their bench too - Yarnall, Pohe and du Randt certainly.

Just a shame this wasn't announced until yesterday. Difficult to change plans at such short notice.

Yarnell was our first player born after Jan 1st 2000 IIRC when he made his AWC debut v Wasps several seasons ago. Looks like he's been off to Uni in Exeter since but was at Doncaster last season.

[TigerFeetSteve]

Ok so a few thoughts

Gone 2 two complete 15's there so expect a 2nd half team

Gone strong first half team

Still an exciting 2nd half team

Looking forward to when we finally announce some of the guys in our team as actually joining the squad at some point...

9, 10, 12 axis could be a really important one for us

Richardson on the TH side again, so his role that side is expanding, I do hope he can push Hurd this season on that side of the scrum

Interesting guys missing, likes of Hurd, Dolly, Shillcock, Porter & Hatherall. Wonder if they may get a run out early in the PRC
