Premiership 24/25 - Round 11

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

I still wonder why Nick David doesn't get more spoken about him. Hes a cracking winger / fb.

Kenningham having a good game again aswell.

Refuses to pass all the time and super suspect in d

Plus he has a boring name.

Ah right...he always looks good when I see him...clearly not enough.

 

[Geordie]

Is that Joseph injured again?

 

[Jimbo]

How poor is Evans kicking.

 

[AngloScotsHybrid]

Tigers have got a strong side out considering they are missing England players.

Very … just can't afford a 25% record off the tee in tight games. On paper Quins really should have won that a lot more comfortably but without taking any credit from Saints, I never underestimate our ability to underperform.

Still, 5 much needed points so I'm not complaining.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

If Tigers can sign Haffar and Seabrook I would be very please based on the last 3 weeks

 

[Geordie]

Surely Saints aren't going to let Haffar go with his performances of late.

Iypgun and Haffar gives them two VERY good young looseheads.

Agreed he didn't miss by much on some of them they were not easy, like the first two but I think the final conversion miss you'd expect any half descent kicker to land, the kicking too touch was equally as bad, really didn't try to push anything far to safe, kind of speak volumes when Wales have a few injury's to more favoured FHs none of which are particularly stand out and he's still not getting a look in.

If Steward is to remain Tigers FB a pair of quick wingers really will help his lack of pace, with the access to the catcher rules etc it really has amplified Stewards USP.

 

[Jimbo]

Is that Joseph injured again?

I'm wondering the same thing, can't find anything conclusive hoping/suspecting it was cramp, I can't remember too many prem games with so much ball in play time and at that pace tbf.

To be fair, I think the Wales selection piece is just Gatland. Anscombe and Jarrod Evans should probably be first and second choice.

Evans a good creator and distributor, unfortunately his kicking often lets him down. If Quins had lost last night, the points he left out there would have been very costly.

That obviously isn't going to strengthen his case, but it doesn't really warrant a rookie and a 12 being picked ahead of him.

 

[mikebrownsauce1512]

real shame Seb Atkinson isn't in that England squad

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Love Montoya, he's gonna leave such big shoes to fill

 

[TRF_Olyy]

How's was that a Gloucester lineout, for the one they quick threw?
I thought the Gloucester player was getting tackled into touch and flung it backwards and out?

 

[Jimbo]

How are Leicester winning this.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Thought brown was going all the way after he put that swerve in

I was impressed how far he managed to get Wade is no slouch although top end isn't crazy good more his acceleration.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Gloucester tighthead should be gone here, had Reffell in a proper headlock/guillotine

And then they didn't even check it, just the handbags it caused after!
