In spite of the score, this is a quite good performance by Tigers. 4 tries with minimal possession and a man down.

Not really sure there any need for the first half of this comment.. the second half however I agree with

There are some hard working performances being given by players who care about their club. They, at least, deserve our respect.
Can't speak for others but for me it's off not because of our lads but the farcical one-sided refereeing...
I cringe when I read posts like this when we’re losing, and they happen too often. They show us, as supporters, in a terrible light. I don’t know if other forums suffer to the same extent. Yes, there are officials who perform poorly but I’d question any bias. At the end of the day, their jobs are on the line.
Can't recall a referee ever losing their job without putting in years of poor performances...
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?

I have felt over the last 3 games we have started to try more in attack.

Last 2 kicks sensible, get it off the park.

Some of the earlier comments on this thread not backing our lads are so disheartening ! If you have played sport to a good level you will know you have to dig in when things aren’t going to plan ! If you don’t you get nothing back ! I get the feeling that those who expect things to go right all the time, every time have never played many “competitive” games in their lives !! Well done Tigers for such stoic commitment ✊

I also asked for dogged defence with turn overs.

We have been absolutely fantastic at the breakdown today.. and Porter has looked very sharp since coming on which is great to have him back with Kobus facing a ban and Nadolo still not 100%
