I think this round of fixtures just shows how competitive this league is.  For me there's only one outcome that looks pretty certain and that's Fax beating Batley.  All the rest look to be in the balance.  So with no real confidence...

Bulls

Vikings

Dewsbury

Fax

Fev

York

Forever in our shadow, forever on your mind.

Going to the Thunder vs Oldham and Wolfpack vs Widnes double header on Saturday and looking forward to the second game almost as much as the first. I think it should be a very close and with no ties to Toronto or Widnes I'll just be able to enjoy the game rather than pulling hair out or suffering heart failure. My prediction, I'll go Toronto by 2.

No choice for TO13, a big win is the only result possible. Anything else will be unacceptable to a club looking for a top five place. Confidence will be low and players looked knackered after the latest defeat to a good Vikings side.

Toronto v Widnes should be a cracker.

I’m feeling positive about this game as a circuit breaker to a couple of tough results.

Why ?

- The training partnership day and evening in Paris with the Sydney Roosters ? ahead of the World Club Challenge against Wigan was apparently awesome.  Trent Robinson spoke great words of wisdom and inspiration to all. A very generous occasion with the World’s best ( we’ll see )

- Rochdale is a team that Toulouse will never forget for beating them in League 1.  So they thought Toronto was painful.  Nothing less than a 50 point gd would be acceptable. 100 points and a record for the Championship would be nice, but realistically unlikely.  ( Sorry Hornets ? - the boys are motivated after a slow start ) 

- Toulouse need a big win to start their season
