  1. Pia is a very strong team, on paper probably the best squad or at least up there with Carcassonne and Albi, Vailhan, baitieri, guasch, Benjamin julien, Ambert, Hugo Perez, dean whare, their full back was named in the NSW cup team of the year, a solid Aussie prop, Lézignan had a few injuries before and during the game, but where outplayed in the second half, the young Clement Martin going to full back having never played that position, he did really well in defence and under the high balls, Definitely dominated in the second half.
  2. Albi v Limoux is a great advert for winter rugby
  3. They could buy it for a couple of hundred euros
  4. Excellent at full back and Scrum half in France, now playing centre in the sg ball cup, He comes from salon and played elite2 at 17, he's never played elite 1, but played against the Catalans last year with the elite select team, Played in the halves for France 17s and at full back for France 19s and France b in Serbia I think. Very tall and rangey I'd say around 6foot 4.
  5. We'll soon be sick of them and they'll start being annoying. Happens to all RL commentary teams for some reason . ( Maybe it's us )
  6. Something about not having the ground available and having to play cancelled games before playing the return game, nothing is ever simple, the game went on forever, very stop start, final whistle was at 17h10 and the kick off was at 15h ISH
  7. A lot less wrestle makes the the game quicker and more enjoyable. It looks like the play the ball is a lot quicker than last year,
  8. Big game this Sunday. Limoux v Carcassonne. On limoux YouTube channel
  9. The Lézignan v Albi game is now available to see on YouTube
  10. Pamiers are looking to move up to elite 2, they've a bit of money and a decent following,
  11. Never going to happen, a semi pro player with a full time job will be getting minimum 1500 euros take home for his job and between 600 and 1200 from rugby (some maybe a little more) there's no way clubs can pay this as a real work contract costs the employer double, so a player on 2k will cost the club around 3700 with taxes, national insurance etc , Players aren't going to give up a long term job to play a couple of years of full time rugby for half the money he was getting,
  12. The right side was the strong side until they moved the young full back Monteil to stand off or left side halfback, and he unlocked the left side attack,
  13. Avignon are a very good team, It seems in France the refs referee the score and not the game, dominant teams in a game seem to get penalised more near the end of the game to let the other team back in, it happened for the Lézignan Villeneuve game, same yesterday, the Toulouse v Lézignan game it happened and for the Carcassonne game when Lézignan came back to almost win. I watched Ferrals struggle v Pamiers and was 18 0 down after 20 minutes, after this the penalty count was 5 to 0 for Ferrals who came back to lose 22 to 16 but missed a penalty at 18 16 that would have probably drawn the match, Or I may be wrong
  14. Complicated for the french, English ref, superleague rules and interpretations, two training sessions, spread the team out over all the clubs, they're allowed to wrestle in France the English ref spent more time shaking his fist in the air to signal six again than anything else
  15. Na TV is Aquitaine, but can be watched via the internet,
  16. It's being shown on NA TV and sport en France,
  17. triple header with Toulouse v featherstone? Bit of a surprise that the Toulouse players won't be playing for France, same for the couple of french players at featherstone.
  18. Yes and he didn't even want to play centre!
  19. I remember his nightmare game for hull kr
  20. Zénon is still recovering from injury I believe,
  21. This year is the 120th anniversary of the Lézignan rugby club being created, Ferrals (their reserves) celebrate 100 years,
  22. Laguerre, Yaha and Rougé played with xiii catalan this weekend so I can't see them being in the team for the first round of super league
  23. Imagine saying the challenge cup semi finals would be in Cornwall this year
  24. They need to promote the game using the France team not the clubs
