This seems (don't want to jinx) a much improved Leicester performance.

Tigers looking very solid. Hopefully they will see Racing off.

Certainly a better performance but I can't help but think we're 1 or 2 errors from losing. Probably an intercept try and then we try and play loose and continually cough up the ball

They're making ground so they just need to keep their concentration and discipline

Appalling ref, both sides all off their feet at the breakdown. Making it really messy

Would of given that as a try, need to be a bit more positive in those 50/50 calls. At least it was quick decision though
