[TRF_Olyy]

I mean Ojomoh is primarily a 12 and Dingwall a 13 so why not just play them there?

Too normal for SB

I mean someone on the Tigers forum the other day posted

"
I'm reminded of 2005 when we beat Wasps on the final day of the season, then lost the final to them; and 2010 when we lost to Saracens in the final round, then revenged that in the Hipkiss final.

2012 we beat Quins in the penultimate round away, then lost the final to them (admittedly that was more down to the Flood injury the next week I feel than any kind of "learning").

So basically, probably better if we do lose tomorrow looking at those three pairings!"

Cheering for Lyon next weekend

 

[Ddanno]

Brutal.

I mean... You may very well win a potential final between these two, you're a very good team.

But I don't think that losing 43-15 to us a few weeks earlier is particularly helpful towards that goal, especially in the knowledge that Bath left a few tries out there with handling errors (some forced, some over-excitement), and we're resting the likes of DeGlanville and Reid/Bayliss

Not sure if I've been oblivious to this, but anyone notice when Canterbury have suddenly started sponsoring prem rugby on TNT?

I find that odd considering they don't have any kits in England nor the English international team anymore.

Can't say I've noticed - but they do make this year's Lions shirt

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Odds on a DC9 dropgoal from the base of a ruck for old times sake?

 

[ShropshireAllBlack]

Soft soft try. This could be a spanking…

 

[TRF_Olyy]

It's an interesting tactic leaving like 40% of the width of the pitch uncovered...not working so well so far

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Red, for me, but based on this season probably a yellow

Edit: good call,
Like this ref so far - good to see some new blood coming through

 

[Ddanno]

God we're doing some brainless stuff

 

[TRF_Olyy]

"No foul play" as the replays show Roots elbowing him in the face

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Quins look rattled, losing the physicality battle, second half gonna be interesting

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Terrible ruck security from Quins
