Preseason match 1 - Jersey - Friday 19th August 2022 - 5pm

Post by No6_Flanker »

It’s been a long summer without rugby.

Is it too early to speculate who we’ll see in this fixture? I can’t remember how the coaching staff played it last year.

Also is the match being televised?
Cheering on the Tigers in Detroit.
Previously a slower, shorter, less good looking version of Tom Croft.

£10 seems a bit steep. PRTV was what a fiver per league game?

Obviously they're trying to fundraise but think streaming prices tend to be a bit cheaper now?

Off to Jersey today just hope the flight isn’t cancelled. Looking forward to seeing the boys again especially interested in seeing the new signings.

Who knows but good to speculate. Only this and the Falcons games pre season so would expect all the new players to get some decent game time to get them used to the systems. Would also expect Taufetee to get some decent game time as I think he will important for us the first few games.

Especially considering last years coverage seemed to be a bloke on a platform pointing a camcorder in the general direction of play

Still think we'll have a game vs Nottingham, we announced one, then it dissappeared when LCFC had a game vs Man Utd on the same date. Just probably working out details even if it is played behind closed doors

Does anyone know when the players involved are likely to be announced? Can’t recall if pre-season teams are normally announced the day before or on the day.

Thanks!

It is unlikely that the players will be announced as it likely to involve the majority of the playing squad, given what has happened in previous years

Nothing on the Nottingham site about playing against the Tigers.
