Michael Cheika wants trust from Leicester one last time in Premiership final
Australian Cheika will leave the Tigers at the end of his one-year contract, with former Leicester player Geoff Parling set to take charge at Mattiolli Woods Welford Road in the summer. Cheika – who guided the Wallabies to the 2015 World Cup final and then took Argentina into the last four two years ago – has been credited with transforming the mentality of a Leicester squad which finished eighth in the 2023-24 campaign. The 58-year-old, though, maintains the Tigers' progress this season – finishing second in the table and then beating Sale in the play-off semi-finals – is very much down to a collective effort. 'That is a really fundamental part of building teams,' said Cheika, whose Leinster side won the 2009 European Champions Cup before he then took New South Wales Waratahs to the Super Rugby title. 'First they have got to be able to trust each other – we have got to be able to have honest conversations and being prepared to have a fight with each other. All eyes on Saturday. — Leicester Tigers (@LeicesterTigers) June 10, 2025 'As long as it is a fight where you are going in the same direction, then you are trying to get the same thing done, that's okay. 'Building up mentally is important and it is a continual workout – you have never arrived at the place you have got to be at, because every time you meet another challenge, you have got to then go and delve into that. 'I have definitely learned a lot from them and I hope they have been able to learn a bit from me.' Cheika added: 'They are playing as part of a team, and in the team, those dynamics are extremely important. 'We are going to need that on Saturday, because we are playing against the team that dominated the league and we need to find a way to master that opponent.' Cheika, though, does not want his players turning up at the Allianz Stadium just to enjoy the occasion – which will be the last game before club stalwarts Dan Cole and Ben Youngs retire while Tigers captain Julian Montoya and South Africa fly-half Handre Pollard are also set to move on. Will @LeicesterTigers add to their 11 Premiership Rugby titles this Saturday? 1988 🏆1995 🏆1999 🏆2000 🏆2001 🏆2002 🏆2007 🏆2009 🏆2010 🏆2013 🏆2022 🏆2025?#GallagherPremFinal — Premiership Rugby (@premrugby) June 10, 2025 'You work hard to get yourself in a position to have an opportunity at the title, so when it is there, you would be mad not to take it,' Cheika said. 'Together, we have built a good deal. We have improved our mental preparation and our the mental side of our game, the resilience or the grit that we have got in games. 'But you are going to need more than just that as well – you need quality, you need all those things. 'I suppose it is more just about being ready to balance out what is the emotional part and what is the technical part, and make sure you have got both of those clearly defined as to what their use is.'

Bath out to spoil Leicester leaving party in Premiership final
With departing Tigers head coach Michael Cheika making way for Geoff Parling, it will be a summer of change at Mattioli Woods Welford Road. As well as Cole and Youngs – one-club men who top England's international appearances list – calling time on their illustrious playing careers, Tigers captain Julian Montoya and South Africa fly-half Handre Pollard are also moving on next season. England scrum-half Spencer, 32, feels the Leicester contingent have certainly earned their respect in the game, but that will count for little when Bath look to cap a memorable campaign with more silverware and a first Premiership title since 1996. 'They are two legends of the game and of English rugby – they both have over 100 caps for their country,' said Spencer, who won the last of his 10 England caps during the Autumn Nations Series against Australia in November. 'They (Leicester) are feeding off the energy of those guys leaving, but is not just those two – it is (Julian) Montoya, it is (Handre) Pollard and there are a few more. A post shared by Ben Spencer (@ben_spencer9) 'Obviously the game will be worse off without them, but I don't think there is any part of me or any of the Bath lads that don't want to spoil that party. 'It will be sad to see them go, but I am hoping that we lift the trophy at the end of the day on Saturday afternoon.' Bath finished 11 points clear of Leicester at the top of the regular-season table, winning 14 games, and then saw off rivals Bristol to book a return to the Gallagher Premiership final. Johann van Graan's side have already ended the club's 17-year trophy drought, lifting the Premiership Rugby Cup earlier in the campaign and then beating Lyon to win the European Challenge Cup final in Cardiff last month. Trophy hunt status: Ongoing Can @BathRugby complete the Treble this weekend? 🏆🏆#GallagherPremFinal — Premiership Rugby (@premrugby) June 10, 2025 Having been part of the team beaten 25-21 by Northampton in last season's Premiership showpiece final at Twickenham, Spencer feels the squad are well set to go one better on Saturday. 'Everyone feels different – this group has been through enough now and played in enough big games to know how the week needs to feel and look,' Spencer said. 'That's one huge thing that Johann brought in, turning hope into belief and this group believes now and believes we can win big games.' Spencer added: 'Leicester love to scrum and to maul and then have a big set of centres and electric wingers. 'They are going to be a handful on Saturday, but this week has been about us and what we can do.'
