A decent basketball game & a draw probably fair result, although not sure if the TMO looked at the angle the tv showed for Quinn’s 4th. They even had a nice white line to guide them, if player behind white line when he throws the ball & the ball goes over that white line in to the hands of on rushing Morley then it’s forward no? but sadly missed.

It definitely looked forward. Even before using the lines for guidance! No idea why it wasn't checked. One other thing I found strange was when Youngs kicked the ball out on 80, when they could have tried going for the win. Maybe I was being greedy and/or don't quite understand the game enough!

I think being in our own half the safety came into his experienced head.

We would have had to go a long way to get a try although we potential only needed to get into their half and try and force a penalty with Pollard on the pitch..but if we coughed it up or were penalised ourselves from the position we were in they might have scored themselves, so think it was just simply down to our position on the pitch.

Anthony Watson forced to retire on medical grounds. Brilliant player in his day, shame he's has to call it a day at 30. 

Seems like a top bloke too. He was getting quite emotional with Ben Youngs and Dan Cole on their podcast yesterday.

Blimey I know we weren’t expected to win this but what a grim week for the City

That was some sexy rugby from Toulouse. They look unstoppable.

With the City's men and women team both suffering defeats and this mauling of the Tigers we can honestly say we are no longer the sporting capital of England.

Ehhhh...

Yeah, I think so. 

 

Fair number of the Glasgow players will have had 5 6 nations games under their belt. 

 

A lot will depend on Tuipulotu's injury and if he's still out.

I don't think Tigers are any other team English should bother with trying to win the European Cup. Only Leinster can realistically challenge the big French teams. Better off focusing attentions domestically IMHO.

 

The English clubs have a cap of £5million (I think), I read somewhere that Toulouse's budget is €50m.

Radwan is a great signing. Shame for Falcons though. 

Top signing and well played Tigers moving quickly to replace Watson

Listened to it earlier today, he does seem such a nice bloke and really well respected. Did sound quite emotional with how it all came about and actually having to call it a day
