Tigers vs Brive

[Big Dai]

Let's hope it's not a repeat fixture of the last time we played Brive, this was way before my time but weren't we massive favourites going into the '97 final?

Yes. A point not lost on Madame Carbanneau when I met the supporting entourage in the Tav Bav in Toulouse the day after.

I remember Kazala.... Crawling all over Johnno and Monsieur Travers who's been seen lurking on touchline recently.

She was complimentary about our support though. Couldn't be anything else after such a win....... Pace. Tigers out done by pace. Mr Carrat!?

Would like to see Bonilla start with White at 9, Taute & Porter in the centre, our Fijians on the wings with Steward at 15.
Up front a bit of rotation maybe, depends who us actually fit & healthy. Loose head could be tricky unless DuBruin is ready to go.

I'm feeling stangely upbeat with this one.

Sebastian, I think. Ran like the :censored: wind.

He probably doesn't know who Jasper Carrott is.

Yes, Sébastien “24” Carrat was rapid!

Might be a chance we'll see Moroni for the first time.
I'm guessing the England players might have arrived back late this week, so may not start. So I'd go for the above but with Scott and Moroni, with Porter on the bench.

[Wayne Richardson Fan Club]

The Mercury article seems to suggest we can choose the 2 week England player break, these two games might be best for us overall.

Believe it would be good for Bonilla to start - different proposition from coming on and having to force the game or orchestrate a retrieval mission.Both The Club and player could benefit.....

Was I dreaming or were we supposed to be getting another Argentinian back coming in?

Tigers were favourites, although maybe not massive favourites, and were well beaten by a more than lively Brive team.
That day rests in my memory, albeit a bit vague, having gone to Cardiff on a chartered train packed with Tigers supporters and no shortage of beer. I believe we took the train to come home, but that part of the memory seems to have been erased!!

I went to Cardiff for this game. We were easily outplayed on the day. Dreadful experience.

Oh ye of little faith! I know the man who halted drivers in Jersey by offering them fish and chips, had a unique style of mole hunting and rode a funky moped! (Real interest, Majic Roundabout on the B side.)

Bonilla doesn't look like the type of 10 to change a game, he looks like a closer (he looked really good when he came on against Glaws) or a steady 10 who will move the team around the pitch, give him a start & say go run this team.
