The End of Season Review
Mike and Elliott are joined by Radio Leicester's Adam Whitty and the LTW Fancast's Jacob Bassford to wrap up a complicated and ultimately disappointing season for the Tigers. What went wrong?

Blueprint? - Chiefs (H) Review
Mike and Elliott enjoy a meaningless-yet-important win in the final game of the season for Tigers, one that hopefully points at brighter days to enjoy come September. We pay a tearful tribute to some departing legends and assess what the performance says about the way the team wants to play.

Fizzling Out - Sale (A) Review, Exeter (H) Preview
Mike and Elliott endure a review of yet another loss as the wheels sadly come off for this season, but as always we try to find some rational reasons as to why and find some positives...even if it looks like they will only be in play next season.

Fallout at Franklins - Joe Heyes Interview, Northampton (A) Review, Bristol (H) Preview
Mike and Elliott drag themselves in front of the mic to chat about a crushing loss away at Northampton, a defeat that may spell the end of Tigers' playoff hopes. As always, we try to find some reason and some positives in the performance, before picking ourselves back up to have a chat to old mate Joe Heyes and to get behind the boys ahead of a tasty fixture at Welford Road against a red-hot Bears side.
