Might aswell change Tigers team to Loughborough students.

although amazing amount of ex prem academy lads (and a couple of bedofrd academy) in it.
Boyce - Worcester
Dockery - Wasps
Pointon - Saints
Stapley - Bedford (okay champ)
Kaye - Saracens
Ffitch - Saracens
Foster - Bedford
Keunen - harlequins
Frost - London Irish

Would be nice if at least one gets a contract after this if they put in a good showing, quite a few talented 18 - 23 year olds who slip though the cracks IMO.

Quite excited by Tigers and loughborough new partnership.

There seems to be a fair bit of transfer activity between Loughborough Students and Bedford recently.
The Leicester - Loughborough Uni link up does look very promising.

Jamie Elliot doesn't look at all fit after his lay off, wandering round the pitch like a puffing prop

[Tigersman]

Such a pointless comp really.

Maybe a 7's comp at the end of season during playoffs with the teams that didn't make it would be better.

Players will be happy with that! The beach or a few days of 7's....hmmmm.

[Tigersman]

and this is soooooo much better.

Maybe do it at the bournemouth sevens or something and make a party of it.

I watched a few of the games. For exeter the lad bodilly looked really good http://cornish-pirates.com/16-17_player ... _back.html. Also the new lad O'flaherty from the ospreys looks like a good finisher.
