Mike and Elliott

4 days ago

Mike and Elliott are forced to relive some painful memories from two years back as the Tigers stutter to defeat against Bristol at Ashton Gate, but find plenty more encouragement in this display as compared to that one. We chat about what went wrong and right, laud the Big Red Machine (Ches) as the new skipper and look ahead to a shot at getting back on track at home against Harlequins. PS Apologies for some iffy sound quality from Mike - undetected microphone issue, apparently.

Heartbreak at HQ - Prem Final Review

Mike and Elliott stump up the courage to run the rule over a brave display which ultimately just fell short against the new Prem Champions, Bath. We gush with pride about the ticker of the boys, and try to piece together where the final was won and lost - through excellent play by Bath, through some errors from our lads, and - of course - some questionable decisions from sir....

The Big Prem Final Preview Pod - with Freddie Burns

Elliott and Mike hop on board the Freddie Burns roadshow to spend some time with the King of Leicester talking about how to approach a season-defining match and giving Polly some drop goal tips. We also do a deep dive into how the boys might spring an upset against a Bath side which is - fairly - fancied by pretty much every pundit, and finally get the respect that they have so far - unfairly - been denied.

Sunday Roast Lam - Bristol (A) Review, Harlequins (H) Preview

Mike and Elliott get the jacket of smugness back out of the closet following a nervy-yet-comprehensive win over the dangerous Bristol Bears, revelling in a performance of solid basics and vicious, intelligent defence. We look ahead to a key game against Harlequins which could cement playoff hopes and, dare we say it, put us in a good position for a home semi final. Of course, the head coach debate rumbles on and we're excited by a new name that's been thrown into the mix...

Bears and Bosses - Bristol (A) Preview

Mike and Elliott utilise yet another week of no news to effectively make their own news about who the new Tigers figurehead is likely to be, but we deduce that an announcement cannot now be far away. We also look ahead to a daunting trip to Ashton Gate and try to figure out a way to stop that incredible Bristol attack, which is hard enough to articulate, let alone to do.

Cancel the annual Leinster defeat - Glasgow (A) Review

Mike and Elliott get very grumpy as they review a chair-throwingly frustrating loss up in Scotland against Glasgow, with the mild benefit that at least we won't have to lose to Leinster this year. We also dive into the weekly muddy pond that is the world that is head coach rumours, but there are some potentially sweeter waters when it comes to the fly half situation...

ANOTHER Franklin's Fire Drill - Saints (A) Review; Sarries (H) Preview

Mike and Elliott record the podcast out of Smug City following a beautiful nilling of Saints on their own patch. We ask how much of that was due to great Tigers play and how much was down to Northampton having the worst case of the dropsies known to man. Plus, stay tuned throughout the episode for developing news on the Gustard situation, and we also look ahead to a home game against Sarries, who are coming off the back of a bad loss to Quins.
