Midi Olympique (french national rugby paper) : Attendance :4.651 (officially sold tickets)

According to the game's historians, 102,575 attendance is the tickets sales, that is to say the totality available. But "they were much more than that" with people without tickets. A serious estimate is 110 or 120,000 spectators.

Go Toulouse !!!

I suggest you "LEAGBY" (in french "Ligby") It sounds like Rugby !

It's a pre-list.... the definitive list remains open !

Like the vast majority of french people , he knows better rugby union, but he comes from the South regions where our rugby code is still alive ! His presence and speech shows a desire, at a very high level of the french government to help rugby league to progress and appear again among the major sports in our country.

In the '50, '60 and '70 they knew perfectly where is France ... their elders will explain the way !

I remember ... bad day on my TV ... very few people (about 1000) ...lawn lawn ... a pity, because there was a very strong australasian team and some good players in the european one... it could have been a great event ... but it collapsed as a bellow.

Unfortunatelly for Toulouse, Theo has selected Hudd's.

I think Toulouse winning their Grand Final will be bigger for French Rugby League than Catalans winning their Grand Final. I agree !

British friends , You Tube gets you an idea of the atmosphere at Perpignan's stadium ,

Yesterday september 30 in L'EQUIPE the national sports paper, 2 full pages before the match... Incredible but true ! Never seen for 50 or 60 years !

Well done Dracs ! Fingers crossed for the grand final . I hope too Toulouse going in Superleague and a beginning of resurrection for the french RL.
