The 2014/15 pre-season general news/discussion thread

[Patchey]

The commentator has an incredible accent. Simply incredible.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Agree bbc should hire him for the Scotland games.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Scotland will not be using the BBC come the 6N.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ahhh of course forgot about that.

Although wont the bbc be using there own commentators anyway for the games?

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

actually not as bad as was expecting, and alot closer then i thought it would be

 

[ratsapprentice]

Yes - without any obligations to broadcast as Scotland's home coverage provider. Keep the ***** out of my living room.

You have some very good youngsters.

Watson, Tonks looking sharp (Both Leicester academy should I add).

Your TH getting to Sio our Loosehead (although he is very raw)


Morris is getting a love in though.

Fully agree

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

i think edinburgh got lucky there

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Burns looking really good so far.

 

[Patchey]

That pick up and kick. Phwoar.

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

Burns looking really good so far.

but ain't having a good day with the conversions though

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

did burns get cramp during that kick?

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

dont think so but that was a bad miss

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Shocking miss.

Williams and Burns would be the prefect 10 if you could fuss them together.

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

i thought Ross Ford was bad James Hilterbrand is playing worse

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

good chance to take the lead here

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Must be one of the heaviest backlines Leicester has now.

10. Bai
11. Goneva
12. Pohe
13. Manu

 

[ratsapprentice]

Pohe and Tuilagi midfield is a reality.

I think Pohe is looking bigger than Manu.

Also - I'm seriously looking forward to the new Tigers kit.

 

[iINDOMINUSxx]

think there's something wrong with kickers today thought that should have been over from Heathcote

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Pohe looks Shorter a wider than Manu, but also less athletic looking.

think there's something wrong with kickers today thought that should have been over from Heathcote

Maybe the ground is greasier than it looks?
