Tigers v Sale (H) - Saturday 08th October 2022 - 3-00pm

Yeah, we've got to be favourties at home.

[mightymouse]

I would rather be underdogs .. And I hope the crowd treat it as such … we are always louder when we think we could lose

[Qbec]

Tigerbeat: What do they know? Are the ones that classed as the experts in BT's Panel that predicts the outcome before each game?

Thats just a joke at the start of one So & So was 79% gonna win by Half time they reduced to 19% winners.
Thats not experts predicting anything, thats just watching the game unfold, Still keeps people like Dayglo employed, shame it doesnt pay enough to keep him voice from any commentry.

Surprised with some of the comments tbh. Montoya and Wiese both back in the pack will be massive. Yeah we’re missing Chessum but that’s almost our best 1-8 on the field. Plus we’ve got great quality on the bench. Not saying it’s going to be an easy game, but at home, I’d be shocked if we didn’t win.

Tuilagi vs Gopperth

[Smudge]

That looks a strong side on paper but Manu. on the day, could make it all turn sour.
I detested the way he left, unwilling to take a pay cut etc. I wonder how he feels now that Warriors have gone under
and Wasps are in trouble?
I understand he still has a love for the club that did so much for him and the city where his family still lives but
I wonder how the supporters feel about him now?

Yes the family did a lot for the club but the name Tuilagi will always be tainted for me. As an aside I’m unsure how many of the family still live here.

With our pack, Manu will hopefully rarely get the ball. Is this one of his 3 games this season? (harsh!)

[markharbtiger]

Just looking at our 23 - not looked at Sale - it looks stronger than the team v Sarries. But this might be due to returning internationals.
I take it from previous posts Manu is starting for Sale? I hope our centres bring their A games...

TBH I’m surprised he’s come back from England fit.

Haha... that is an achievement in itself!

Typical Tigers fan reaction I’m afraid, we were awful last week therefore we are going to be awful this week.

Good job Newcastle didn’t think that after losing to Worcester or they wouldn’t have had a cat in hells chance against un beaten Bristol

Err...where did I say that? All I said was I hope our centres bring their A games - how is that saying we are awful (in any week?!)
