Tigers, England and Croft

It’s been a long time since I have posted something, so sorry to avid readers of this blog.
With Tigers sitting 2nd in the GP and have strung four wins on the trot, it looks like they are going to peak at just the right time for the play offs.

England have finally kicked into 1st gear against a French side that did not look at the races for most of the game.

Tom Croft has finally been given the chance to show why he should have been starting in every game of the 6 Nations. It was clear for everyone to see that when this back row forward gassed the whole New Zealand Maori team on the wing to win England Saxons the Churchill Cup back in 2007. He is the second fastest player in the Tiger’s squad and is sure to be a star of the future.

Leicester have started scoring a lot of tries in recent weeks and from the looks of it the best is yet to come. Once all the international players are back and Martin Corry is back from his ban, you would be a foolish man to write off Tigers in the Heineken Cup and the Guinness Premiership.
