Tigers v Bath (A) - Premiership - Saturday 28th October 2023 - KO:15-05

Post by tigerburnie »

Need to make a statement here I think, is Sam Carter training/ available, not seen his name being mentioned, will Harry Wells be fit?

Wells has been back in pics this week, so may be fit again, Carter also in training pics so think he is also fit too.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Another very difficult game as I think Bath only have Will Stuart missing and Lawrence missing.
The way Bath finished last season and have started this means they are full of confidence. Then of course there’s Finn Russell.
It’s going to be interesting to see what teams are put out the week after by Tigers and Sarries: a bottom of the table clash. I can’t get to Bath but will be at Sarries.
Take into account the injuries we have too then I just hope we can be competitive!

A very tricky game ahead and I will not be confident as I travel to Bath. I understand there is plenty of space on the G and G coach if any.one wants to travel at a reasonable price and in good company.

Very difficult game coming up Underhill Lawrence and Stewart missing, as against 2 thirds of Tigers.
Look to build on last week and assuming both Hatherall and Porter injured and return of Cronin I’d go.

Carter came on off bench last Saturday.

It is posted on the Bath unoffy that extinction rebellion will be in town and the game is likely to be disrupted, those travelling to the city may find travel disruptions to, so plan ahead.

Same 23 as I’d have TFS, though I may be tempted to go Rogerson on the bench if it’s going to be a wet match

I agree, but has Porter recovered?

I think we really need to win this one, but with Bath not as impacted as us with international absences, and all the new players/coaches still getting used to each other at Tigers, I am not optimistic. It took a while for Borthwick to settle in, so it would not surprise me if we’re well off the pace this year…

McKellar has said, Cronin Porter & Reffell are all available for this weekend, saying Hatherall & Kata are unavailable
