Quins V Tigers Sat 3pm

[twitchy]

Such a good game.

[Mikey Brown]

FFS Charlie Matthews, that pass has broken half of our team.

[Mikey Brown]

How many Leicester knock-ons and forward passes has this guy missed today?

[twitchy]

Well done tigers, a good watch as a neutral.

[Mikey Brown]

Surreal.

[Mikey Brown]

What a ridiculous game.

Toomua finally looked the player that Tigers needed.

[Oakboy]

If you had never seen English rugby before and watched that game, would you choose Care and Smith or Youngs and Ford?

Clifford looked superb early in the game. Then mistakes spoiled his performance in front of Eddie.

[fivepointer]

That was a bit mad. fun, but definitely mad.

Losing Robshaw and Smith hurt Quins.

Ellis Genge is some player. Tigers need to take care though. He's a young prop who shouldnt be doing 70+ minutes each week.

Two defensive lapses but consistently a menace with the ball. Did I miss something else?

[bitts]

Great game. Thought the winner of Yarde-May was Elliott Daly. While they both looked good in parts, and very industrious, there were a few times when a better all round player like Daly would have done much better.

Ford and Genge looked class. Ford in particular looks like a player that is capable of running a game even when his side isn't getting a lot of possession.

Clifford looked good, but perhaps didn't show the physicality Eddie is looking for.

[Timbo]

What did Robshaw and M.Smith go off for?

[fivepointer]

What did Robshaw and M.Smith go off for?

Robshaw got knocked out making a tackle, Smith twanged something in his leg while making a kick. He walked off and didnt seem in any great discomfort.

[kk67]

Surreal.

That sums up the weekend so far, although I'm somewhat embarrassed to say that I was under the impression this had finished in a draw. Must have been looking at the latest scores.

[Scrumhead]

I'm feeling pretty sore about this one. Really not a lot in it, so perhaps not an entirely unfair result but I have no idea how Cole and Genge avoided being carded.

Pretty sure that penalty that won the game at the end should have been a penalty to Quins about 60 yards further back up the pitch.

Youngs and Ford.

I'm afraid that's likely what Eddie will take away, plus a couple of ball spills in contact; but I liked his carrying a lot.

What? For Veainu colliding with Brown which jumping for the charge down? How was that a penalty?

I'll give you Cole and Genge both needing yellows - I thought the ref had forgotten to pack his cards they were such poor decisions.

[16th man]

May gasses Yarde (though he ought to have done, too much for Yarde to do).....great score after a brilliant run from Youngs.

This was a wierd one, form one angle it looked like Yarde gave up as May had gone, but from another it looked like if he'd actually dived to tackle him he'd had been able to put him into touch fairly easily.

No - for Veainu jumping in to Yarde. It was accidental, but his elbow made contact with Yarde's face so it was a penalty for me. Or let's say, we've all seen them given.

Had either one of those blatant yellows been given, I think Quins would have won.

May was clever though, he slowed very slightly as Yarde sorted the angles out, then took off as Ysrde reacted. Good finishing.

[Raggs]

Genge for me didn't deserve a yellow. Care passed straight to him (classic loopy pass), and there were no quins around that would have taken. Absolutely a penalty, but if Genge had left it, Quins would have been under serious pressure to even keep possession there I reckon.

[Tigersman]

I mean Quins should have gotten a yellow card for killing the ball on their 5 m line in the second half.

How Genge got a yellow card for the scrum when Collier had given away twice as many penalties, hardly equal warnings.

Brown had multiple off the ball stuff being missed out by the ref too.

[Which Tyler]

Just watching now - I see Dom Ryan has now failed the HIA he should have had and failed last week. I wonder if there's been any point in the meantime when he'd have actually passed it?

2 weeks ago.

[Which Tyler]

Of course. Sorry
