  1. In this world cup the NRL supply players for four full teams, Samoa, Australia,Tonga and NZ, more than a third of the English team, plus quite few spread around the other teams, most have all come through the Australian pathways.
  2. St Gaudens is a solid team, good individuals and tough in defence. They're definitely putting up more of a fight than last year,
  3. He's trying but he only realised after a couple of months how big of a job he has to help RL survive and then try to rebuild, We work hard over here but there isn't many of us, With the small amount of players playing the game in youth rugby the fact that we beat the barla national teams and barla regional teams is amazing, this year in the Occitanie (from Perpignan to Bordeaux) there's two regional divisions of 5 teams in both the u15s and u17s categories, 5 or 6 teams in paca and that's it, There's more teams in Wigan and St Helens at u15s and u17s than there is in the whole of France in the same age categories!!!
  4. France have played the second half with two second rows at centre, I don't think it's the coaching of edge defence it's the fact that France only have one real winger, Romano is lost on the wing, same as Laguerre,
  5. I was going to say the same thing, in the field of play that's a penalty for not wrapping the arm,
  6. It's a different game with a super League ref who would let them get away with a bit of a wrestle, France are trying hard but Samoa are a different level.
  7. My wife is over from France staying at my parents who doesn't have a printer and it's Sunday! We've a posh printer here in France but defeats the object if I print the ticket here then scan it back to her
  8. Thanks, what about managing to buy a ticket and not being able to print it out?
  9. Is it possible at Warrington to do this for the Samoa v France game, the website isn't working properly, plus we don't have a printer!
  10. Don't worry yourselves it'll never happen, no Lézignan players will move to Paris or bordeaux to play, neither will limoux players etc, trying to find players in Paris will be difficult as a 3rd or 4th division union players earn double or triple that a pro French rugby League club could offer, They may add the odd team like Toulon or maybe a Montpellier team but they'd need huge investment just to have an extra 2 teams, You all really don't understand how far gone league is in France, or how small it is,
  11. No Lézignan or limoux? The two teams with the biggest regular attendances and largest rugby schools?
  12. Carcassonne ground needs work? It's up to pro D2 union standard and would pass for top 14!
  13. Yes on the papers we received it says rfl north west England selection and Yorkshire,
  14. It's our u 17s from last season, birth years 9 from 2005 12 from 2006 and 1 from 2007. Just 5 players in the squad who played for France u17s
  15. Hello my son has been picked for this selection to tour England, they play games in Yorkshire and Wigan, lock lane ground, west bowling ground, orrell st James and at Wigan st pat's, It says rfl selections, does this mean the community game or will they be playing scholarship/academy players? They leave Saturday morning from Perpignan by coach and get back the 6th November, It says north west select and Yorkshire, anyone any idea? Thanks,
  16. Paulo has finally been announced at Pia,
  17. Corey norman to Lézignan, Dean whare to either Lézignan or Pia, and a couple of other reinforcements for Lézignan soon, good news for the French elite comp to have ex NRL players,
  18. Carcassonne player Joe drodrolagi on the bench for Fiji, it'll be a great experience for him! He's been excellent for Carcassonne the last two years, (not the same level I know)
  19. Due to COVID and the u19s teams being stopped from playing for a couple of years the elite 1 player standard pool is getting even smaller.
  20. Depends if you're playing against them or not and if a fight breaks out.
  21. They used to have Baho as réservés, now Baho are the reserve of Pia
  22. I doubt they'll come from other elite 1 squads, Probably from the reserves,
  23. Vailhan is at Pia, cozza, salabio, are pushing for super League or championship I heard , le cam has been contacted by rugby union but hasn't decided. Cozza and le cam may get some offers after the world cup.
  24. Yes a very young team, Already a couple of bad injuries, it's fine blooding a couple of young lads in an experienced team but almost all the xiii Catalan team is under 20/21, There's some big physical players in elite 1, it's almost dangerous, yes they want to toughen them up and find the best and to try to get them ready for super League but players safety should come into it too. They train every day but the props are not even 90kgs. It could be a very long season for them unless they get a hand from the Catalan squad players in January, the players that used to play with xiii Catalan and train/play with the super League team have almost all left, cozza, salabio, vailhan, Le cam etc
