[TRF_Olyy]

will be coming on at 10 for tigers

and then 10mins later at 15, and you'll be finishing the game at tighthead prop

 

[Geordie]

Really hope Watson isnt serious again....he's just got back and is playing brilliantly...

Still better than Sinckler ...

 

[Scotty]

Has burns gone off now?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Has burns gone off now?

Lower leg injury (achilles?) in the build up to McIntyre's try

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Oh Byron, one pass and that's an easy run in but he steps inside instead

 

[Geordie]

Greedy

 

[Geordie]

Didn't realise Ohgre was at Tigers

 

[TRF_Olyy]

If only that 50-50 Curry threw to Simpson had gone to hand,

Taking a conversion after assisting with a huge miss pass not a bad way to bow out though

Is that his last game?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Is that his last game?

Yeah, technically retires tomorrow

Said he's taking a few months to work out what he wants to do post rugby, I do wonder whether he might show up on Wasps' coaching staff in the championship next season

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Yeah, technically retires tomorrow

With how many transfers/loans he’s had in the last couple of seasons I wouldn’t be surprised to see him pop up on someone’s bench tomorrow for a last hurrah.

Wouldn’t surprise me if that was short term for Leicester, imagine if JVP & Youngs both out for 6 nations.

So Burns Watson Pollard Porter all went off injured? How badly are they looking?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Porter I think was a head injury - I think he got knocked out and it was picked up on by the pitch side doctors
Pollard no idea but he didn't look comfortable after the run in for his try, possibly precautionary if he felt something twinge? (edit: apparnently pollard was a pre-planned sub as part of his return from injury)
Watson went off at half time so no indication of what it was
Burns looked bad - was on crutches at the end of the game

Cracknell failed a HIA too, so he's on a minimum 12 day stand down now too

 

[Which Tyler]

That Sale attack in the red zone may well have been the most dire attacking effort I’ve ever seen.

Presumably you've avoided all Bath matches for the last 26 months

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Presumably you've avoided all Bath matches for the last 26 months

For the sake of my love of rugby I’ve chosen to forget that Bath exist.

[TRF_Olyy]

He had a tooth ache from too much Christmas chocolate and akker was just trying to help get the bugger out,
Play on
