MURPHY – I COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR MORE

Assistant Coach of the Leicester Tigers Rugby team has pointed out that his team’s defeat of the Northampton Saints left him feeling very impressed, and he could not have asked for a lot more.


The Tigers scored three tries in the Anglo-Welsh Cup competition game, ending at 27-20 to extend their unbeaten run and secure a spot at the semi-final rounds with just one more game left to play.

The three tries scored in the game, were touched down by Will Evans, Dom Barrow and Harry Thacker.

Murphy, who spoke after the game, made it known that he had talked with the team before the game and had them know that it was going to be all about their performance. At the end of it all, he believes the team showed a lot of passion and pride in the game.

“We talked before the game about a performance being vital and I thought we played with a lot of passion and pride. I’m really pleased for the guys,” Murphy said. (more…)

IT’S A MUST WIN GAME FOR US – MICHAEL PATERSON

The game between Northampton and Leicester Tigers which will see Northampton as visitors, will be the first East Midlands derby for Michael Paterson.


The flanker, ahead of the derby, has said that the game is a must win game for them. He was part of the Northampton Saints team that went on to concede a late score last Friday in their game against Newcastle Falcons.

With five minutes into the game, Saints had battle valiantly, and thus secured a 16-15 lead with no more than 5 minutes left on the clock. This was despite the absence of prop, Kieran Brookes who had been sent off just two minutes before half time.

They could not keep the lead for so long or even go on to extend it as NikiGoneva crossed before the extras were kicked in by Joel Hodgson.

Paterson and his fellow squad mates will on Saturday, visit Welford Road in the game against Leicester Tigers and for the flanker, he believes it would be a lively game for them and a vital one at that especially since it was between a close rival of theirs. (more…)
