Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Bad weather forecast for this weekend? Loading the back three with players that can cover fullback would suggest an expectation that the Chiefs will kick and handling conditions will be tough.

Yeah an valid point Sam, though id say Sinoti and Goneva are pretty secure under the high ball etc. Unless...WE are looking to kick the leather off the thing then Arscott and Tait make sense...

Me neither. But we should be looking to win this one, we've finished strongly in every game so far so as long as we're a little ahead or at least very close I think our superior fitness and better bench will win it for us.
It's only if we chase the game or make silly mistakes that I think k we'll lose. I can just kind of see that happening though.

How many of those players were established names before they arrived though. The scouting and academy development going on down there has been spectacular.
Tighthead for instance Harry Williams had played round the Championship having not been picked up by an AP academy and gone to Uni instead. Very similar story for Tomas Francis. Their previous clubs include Loughborough University, Nottingham, Doncaster, London Scottish.
Who had heard about Johnny Hill? Didn't make it at Glaws and now absolute quality in the row.

That's all true, they'll struggle to hold onto some of them in the years to come and that'll be the big test for the club.

They seem quite good at moving on the players past their peak though. Waldrom has returned to NZ Salvi is now coaching the defence and Horstman has gone also. That has freed up cap to retain players this season. Parking leaving the year before. You'd have thought they'll move on Dennis and the Aussie prop in the future to make cap for the lads coming through.
Tough balancing act mind.

Team news: Tigers versus Warriors this Sunday
21 September 2018 12:00
Graham Kitchener returns from injury to make his first appearance of the season for Leicester Tigers in Sunday’s home game against Worcester Warriors in Round 3 of the Gallagher Premiership season.
The 28-year-old lock has recovered from a hip injury to join the line-up, replacing the suspended Will Spencer in the only change to the forward pack from last week’s match against Wasps.
There are two changes in the backline where Jordan Olowofela and Jonah Holmes come in for Telusa Veainu and Adam Thompstone.
Kyle Eastmond is named among the replacements after missing the Round 3 trip to Wasps, and prop Gaston Cortes returns from international duty with Argentina to join the matchday squad as Tigers return to home turf.
Tigers interim head coach Geordan Murphy said: “We’ve had to make a couple of changes this week but the guys have been training well and it’s good to have Graham Kitchener back for his first game of the season, especially with Will Spencer ruled out.
“There was great heart and desire from the team at Wasps last week but we know there are areas to improve and we have to get better.”
Tigers against Warriors is a 3.00pm kick-off at Welford Road and match tickets are still available. Book in person at Welford Road, phone 0116 319 8888 (option 2) or online at www.leicestertigers.com

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Sarries have named a massive pack but there's no real emphasis on attacking the breakdown. If they can just bash Glaws aside it could be a big win for the Cherry and Whites. Expect some big hits on Cipriani when he takes it to the line, Cipriani will be desperate to show up well against Farrell after Jones comments.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Cracking game up north this evening. Falcons frustrating Chiefs at the breakdown and offering plenty of firepower. They'll be a couple of national managers watching young Johnny Williams performance with interest. I'm fairly sure I told the Falcons fans some months ago he'd be a good signing for whomever picked him up (I was hoping the whomever would be Tigers mind).

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Well can't complain about the defeat. They're a good side.
We battled them well though.
Hammersley looked like the player of a few years back...gliding past players.
Williams looks a class act.
Arscott had a very good game.
Gary Graham is the epitome of aggression and energy
We just need to stop the bloody box kicks.
Keep playing like that though and we'll be fine this season.

Odd looking team that. Lots of injuries already obviously, but our pack looks really average. And the forwards on the bench worse. Bristol will expect to be able to hit us hard up front.
The backs though look promising, Lang has been very good off the bench and past him the whole backline look dangerous. Just need Care to spend less time gesturing and play the ball.

Rob Baxter was apparently asked what Simmonds would have to do to get picked by EJ after that impressive performance, his sarcastic answer was put on 30kg. There's probably some truth in that too though.
Apparently the guys try to game ratio is insane too.

Thought Falcons got away with quite a lot in their ferocious defending of the try line. On another day a penalty try and more cards could have been conceded.

Had Exeter not scored their rolling maul then I think there would have been a penalty try and a second yellow card. Patience was wearing thin at that point.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Good reffing for me. You see in some sports refs won't yellow card a player of its early in the game. IMO it shouldn't matter if its the first minute or the last minute.

Well we can see the influence of Gustard's defensive system. Our attack isn't looking very cohesive yet though.

Fair YC against B Curry for early tackle on Daly. However Daly should have seen yellow a few minutes earlier for a high stiff arm tackle.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
Not sure what to make of this quins game. Given the conditions, kicking territory is probably sensible, but the chase is poor so we're just kicking away possession.
Penalties killing us as usual.
Just need an attack coach and a brains coach.

Lt, we felt the ref let them off with quite a bit aswell. Some of the scrum collapses were definstely not us.
Then one where Takulua got the ball away despite us going backwards..was a queer decision...given to them again...
In mauls etc they came in from the side on numerous occasions but that was all ignored .
I've said in here many times...the refs and in particular their inconsistency is concerning.

Sadly yes.
Every game we can say was better then last season's, and there were positives, but we're still losing.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
There is a certain obsession with coaches coming in and waving a magic wand. I think the majority of coaches do take a bit of a while to get their ideas across. There's green shoots through the harlequins team I think judge them towards the back end after the 6ns into next season.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
The radio coverage were quizzing the first try, apparently a 50/50 call for obstruction but then incandescent when the second try wasn't called back for obstruction.
After that brief pro Tigers commentary they got back to slagging then off and saying how they weren't like Tigers of old.
Worcester sounded like they were clinical when running ball back from turnover ball and Tigers were error probe in attack and defence.

Worcester are playing well but tigers defence is poor and they keep dropping the ball.
Worcester should win this if they keep doing the basics right like they have been.

Re: Gallagher Prem - Round 4
I'm not sure Tigers are showing anything like the kind of form they need to have to turn this round.
Sounds like some Tigers fans are leaving already.
