Squidge almost never does analysis before a game and predict who and why they will win - anybody who knows rugby can do post match analysis - Squidge cannot do any real predicting, which is really difficult and really insightful

“With Jaguares broken up by covid, the Tigers pounced on their fellow cat’s carcass” showing footage of the mascot while saying that is both horrifyingly amusing yet amusingly horrifying at the same time for me

what epitomises Ashtons try scoring carer and his tracking ability is a game against northahamton saints in the champions cup quarter final in the 2015/16 season I think when he came of his wing tracked round to the left and popped up to score a critical try to get sarries through. his ability to just know where to be is incredible and that's why he has so many tries. glad he's finally got the recognition for this

One of the things I love the most, is Squidge's relentless commitment to the shithousery around his sponsored content, truly top drawer

Oh wow this actually aged well

Love this and as a Leicester fan, it’s so good to get this redemption video after your previous one 🤣🤣🤣 Just one point, at 13.22 pretty sure that’s Charlie Clare running the dummy line as opposed to Tom Youngs whom I’m not sure has made an appearance this season due to his familial circumstances

Very very good Squidge, as ever, especially loved the team's name run through at the beginning, made me snort with laughter (and the Bears name reference too)!

One of the best sponsorship reads I’ve seen

Probably not your forte, but it worth mentioning the big clearout of our complacent, out of touch and directionless Executives. For too long we had no clear plan, no vision, and believed the club would be fine just because of who we are. Barely avoiding relegation shattered that delusion, forced massive changes at the top level of the club, and allowed the future decision-making to play out.

The impact the boardroom makes is so underrated. The Stormers were in no man’s land with huge talent. We’ve had a huge turnaround going unbeaten since the execs have been suspended for corruption after selling our stadium (the oldest in South Africa). Our board was happy to milk the fans. We’re called the faithful because with no titles, come rain or sunshine we’d pack the stadium. Then they couldn’t pay salaries and after the stadium corruption everything fell apart. Now we’re in the URC final at home. Which is our first major final played at home ever (not counting currie cup).

This. This is probably one of the most significant moves to success for a team. The French were terribly organised and had politics galore at board level for years yet with more united fronts in their organisation it's really reflected on their team with decisions on nurturing home grown talent, bringing in coaches united on their teams vision, and better relations between club and country. I'd argue the RFU and premiership rugby have had pretty disorganised and messy leadership for years - England talent spoke for itself with its u20s record but so many seem to be messed about with

I’ve been waiting for this video for so long

A video on where things went wrong for Danny Wilson at Glasgow would be interesting. Apart from at the RDS of course.

..."the dragons die in every story they're in" 🤣🤣🤣

Takes a brave KZreadr to make this video and upload it BEFORE the final. Well done. Good to see Leicester get back to winning ways

Excellent analysis as ever, can’t discount the impact that aled walters has had on the turnaround for the club either though. Alongside borthwick, sinfield etc, he’s added huge amount to not only squad fitness but also mentality of players

I finally have my direct Squidge Rugby association! I've played at Butts Park Arena. Lovely little ground, really nice bar inside the main stand.

Julian Montoya is a fantastic player , he is so physical and makes such big tackles .

Poor Bath... Could you do a video on their collapse?

Are you gonna make a vid about the URC final or even how the Bulls beat Leinster?

This aged well indeed

I have been wondering this very thing. Thanks

Great video, surprised more wasn't made of the Welsh S&C guru who went from winning the World Cup with the Boks to giving Tigers the stamina to play at their intensity for all 80 mins.

Good to see more Matías Moroni love, he's been arguably a top 5 player in the premiership this season, just by never being anything other than really good. Not necessarily spectacular, but never anything less than good. Players like Finn Russell, Marcus Smith or, in days gone by, Frédéric Michalak might turn on the style and produce magic to earn way more column inches, but they are by their nature boom and bust and it's the players who do the work like Moroni does that offer them the flexibility to try those risky things that look gold when they come off.

Pour one out for the forgotten hero, Aled Walters. Joined the Tigers from the Boks in 2020. By 2022 the Tigers are hard, fit monsters.

This aged perfectly

Another fascinating video and your faultless attention to detail is impressive… apart from confusing Ioan Lloyd with Charles Piutau at one point.

Saints are always great in the first half and then fade in the second. Tigers tend to have great fitness and play well over 80mins. Was always going to be a case of weathering the first half storm from Saints. Skosan certainly helped that but Tigers could have gone looking for more tries if needed rather than kicking for goal on the second half.

@robertopallaro6558

for us (argentina) he is the guy who allways plays 8/10 points, always focus, not even one mistake, maybe at 13 or 11

Very good analysis, especially on player running lines and screens, Leicester did bring in a lot of big names but lost there styles. Wigglesworth, while not flashy can move defences alot and Youngs can set and break the line. George Ford is a brilliant late give of the ball, so you always have to commit to him, so if its a 4 v 3 (in his favour), he maintains a 3 v 2 outside him

" I really should have checked if the million was in pounds or in pesos " was a brilliant, I almost threw my water (for those than don't know argentinian pesos are a joke, we have 60%+ inflations anually, (still 1 million pesos would be almost 4500 usd and most people are paid 40k - 60k pesos, more or less 180 - 270 usd, so in argentinian standars he would live quite well)

Borthwick was a very good player, but not a great one. He won international caps because of his work ethic and brain. Those are ideal qualities for a coach and for a coach to instill in his players.

Pollard will do well with them. A flyhalf that doubles as a centre. Also, in his later years he plays more sensible, chess-like rugby. On a separate note; Marcus Smith should play Super Rugby. I’d love to see him at the blues.

Dude, I love your work. So often I am laughing out loud reading your text overlay jokes. Your rugby analysis is at a very high level, but mate I'm not getting all of it because of your accent and speed. FOR GOD'SAKE, SQUIDGE, PLEASE WRITE CAPTIONS FOR US. please, Squidge... I'm American, so I have that handicap, but think of all the rugby fans around the world for whom English is a second language. They have no hope of ever understanding you. Your audience would grow by a factor of two at least if you had captions. Your vids already force the viewer to use the pause button 20 times minimum. Captions will only make it worth the investment. So many times I've rewound again & again to figure out what you are saying without ever getting it. Again, you are doing yeoman's work in the world of rugby commentary. I'm a smarter fan because of you. Keep on keeping on mate.
