The Rolling Maul – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Mike and Elliott behold a magnificent new European jersey, get excited about Fijian international Ben Volavola popping up and make idiots of themselves by predicting how the rest of the Premiership will fare this year. Do not use our guesswork as gambling advice. Even more hopeless than our league predictions are our stabs at what the Tigers XV will look like ahead of the season-opening friendly against Nottingham on Friday night...

Mike and Elliott herald in a new season with some cautious optimism (having learned their lesson from indulging in the full-blown variety).

Elliot and Mike pile into a review of a defeat on the plastic pitch in London, and wonder if it's an opportunity missed or just more expert shadow boxing by Steve. Elsewhere, we look ahead to a massive home game against Irish and announce the giant filling out the 4 shirt for Elliot's Imports.

Elliot and Mike are joined by Tigers legend Sam Harrison as they bask in the glory of a crucial victory against top-4 challengers Gloucester, look ahead to a brutal away fixture against Saracens and announce the owner of the oversized 3 shirt in Elliots Import's XV. We also have a couple of free tickets for the home game against London Irish to giveaway as we get swallowed up by the corporate machine...

Elliot and Mike are joined by the Welshiest man in Leicestershire, Aled Walters, as we talk his coaching philosophies and try to get him to dish the dirt on who gets sent for extra laps. We also review Tigers' win in a tricky encounter at the Rec, before looking ahead to a crucial home fixture against Gloucester. 

Elliot and Mike modestly gloat over a convincing win over Saints in the East Midlands derby, ponder if Julian Montoya may be the one true Emperor of the 2 shirt and look ahead to a trip down the plughole to face Bath at the Rec.
