 I remember that well. A play off semi as well. Manu deserved about 3 red cards and a yellow for the tackle and Ashton deserved a quick word in his ear for the shove. Both got a yellow 

Yep christ knows what Wayne Barnes & his team were on that day how they didn't see that as a red for Manu, they all got a bit heat from the citing commissioner

Fantastic win last night. Burns, Motoya, Liebenberg, Nadolo and Whitcombe all outstanding.

I’d also give a shout out to Dan Kelly we have a baller in him & really don’t think it will be long before he’s a regular in the England setup, although Jones seems to want a wrecking ball in the centre & continues with Manu which held the Tigers back for so long as good as he is.
How good would Randell (JVP?), Smith, Kelly and Slade be as 9,10,12,13

Ashton with a Yellow?? Cant believe that for one minute 

 

Great win!!

Excellent try saving tackle though and what was such a crucial moment in the match.

At least we had a better East Midlands Derby than last week 

[st albans fox]

Gone from being in complete control a man up 14-5 with ten mins of a man advantage to being 20-14 behind with ten mins still to go to HT 

 

the only silver lining is that we have the wind behind second half

Earlier today I was thinking to myself 'I hope we don't beat them by too much, it's not nice to see such a poor Bath team' 

[rachhere]

Never in doubt!

Won it by 24-20 

were fairly comfortable once we’d seen out their final challenge around 70 mins where they had a couple pens close to our line ……

[Dr Marco]

Well done Tigers!

[rachhere]

Just saw that Sarries lost as well! All worked out nicely in the end

[Dr Marco]

Great second half yesterday! and an important win! Keep them coming lads!

I still Dont like the idea, that One plays through an whole season,playing each other twice, & end Top  of the table

and you can still go home Empty handed & Not recognised as Champions...

I am Not against a super 4 play-off, But only has a supercup...Then Top 3 + cup-winners..

 

I mean if you want to cheat-a-season, Why Not Bottom 4 Play each other to see who goes down.( Which I am also against)

Looking like because we got the Ying of a Foxes win we might have to suffer the Yang of a Tigers loss

Hoping the wind behind second half will help but sarries look like they have a try in them every time they reach our 22 ….

Yeah fingers crossed the wind helps but as you say every time they get down our 22 they look like getting a score

[BKLFox]

Needed that

[st albans fox]

Sarries defence way better than ours 

 

we’ve had ample opportunity to be ahead and yet we haven’t put a point on the board since we got back to within 9 

[BKLFox]

Sarries just know how to do it. We should have done more with them giving up 17 or so penalties & we might have nicked a little more at the end but they seasoned winners so fair play 

[Nalis]

Good game between the two best teams in the league.

I'm not keen on watching Rugby on 4G/artificial pitches. Doesn't seem right IMO

I wonder if there has been an increase in ankle or knee injuries from within the scrum on 4G. All that force goes down to the feet at some point for the weaker side (per scrum) and on grass the grass allows for ‘give’ so most of the time studs grip but then slide as the grass fails then lose traction and the scrum collapses (if that makes sense)  I wonder if 4G locks the 4G studs in, meaning ankles & knees go over more?
