I don't want payback, I want focus on a win. One point will be enough for me as nerve-racking as that will be

So not a broken rib. I don't know how long rib cartilage takes to heal.

Good luck listening to it on Radio Leicester! - At one point during Saturday's game Bleddyn Jones said we were playing against the Irish and they were down to 12 men! I often wonder if he is commentating on a different game?!

On the other hand it could just be a repeat of what we suffered last autumn, sorry to be a killjoy, but unless we manage to play out of our skins and achieve scrum domination, I fear the worst. Still the lads have done well to even qualify for the top 4 given the position we were in at one time (was it8th or 9th)?

Did the Tigers not reach the dizzy lows of 10th for one week?

Really? Honest? Cross your heart and hope to die? I've been mis-judging you these last few months Noddy :smt003

Unfortunately Bleddyn is on the same tablets as Noddy and does not engage the brain before speaking or responding but Bleddyn can still spell Guinness correctly.

Generally, cartilage takes longer than bone, due to the poor blood supply.
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

I'm sure we've been 11th on at least two occasions in past seasons! :smt003 :smt003

On a different note, though still on subject ...
Will the Final Whistle be open and showing the game this weekend?

If we play like we did at Wasps (which lets be fair was by far the best we have this season), we stance a chance.. Part of me thinks we may have had a small hangover from that against Saints but lets see, remember saints were under no pressure at all and I thought when they went down to 13 we looked a touch panicked like we had to make sure we used this 10 minutes to ensure qualification was secured!

I dont see it as payback or whatnot just simply we need to go out and win.

Despite our performances our current record is good, you never know

But I do not think a repeat is coming

Two of their back row blokes get sent off. George Ford (and family) get an exceptionally nasty tummy bug and Wooly-Pully runs in the match winner from a half way line intercept, running over the ailing Ford as he does so.
