6 Jul: SL: Catalans Dragons v Wakefield Trinity KO 5pm (UK Time) (TV)

[Agbrigg]

Wakey poor, but even good sides could not put on a good show in so much heat.

Wonder why they don't kick off later in July and august

Wakefield fans puzzling over big yellow orb in sky?

Would make sense.

Sorry. Nodded off. No reflection on the game. Cats 20-6 up

Is it hot?

It is. A few beers too.

It's Spain. It's siesta time.

But that's no excuse for an unprofessional effort. Sofa-based SL fans have to do better than that.

Broughton hatrick.  Bit soft the 3rd one.

HT/ Post match analysis: informative.

Match commentator: gibberish.

32-6.....Wakefield down and out.

[marklaspalmas]

Drinks!

Going through the motions now.

[marklaspalmas]

Righto. I'm out. Time to fire up the bbq. 

All too easy for Cats

Meh, we played 60minutes in a masters game (11 a side at that) in 34C last Saturday, teams need to prepare for maybe a couple of games a year in really hot temps, these are pro players ffs!

[Southerner80]

Finally a win for Les Dracs. Gigot had a big game And while Wakey were not at the races so to speak, let that take nothing away from what is a resounding win. 

Hopefully it's 5th or 4th place now and the Play offs to come. 4 wins from the last 8 could do it, 6 definately will.

How does Chris Chester keep his job now? If they fall to the bottom of the table by season's end, then surely he will be sacked.

People want a bigger SuperLeague, with more teams.... yet we see 'performances' like that from teams like Wakefield. (and Hull KR, London etc).

Catalans were decent, but Wakefield were utterly terrible.

In fairness, half of the teams in SL this year turn in hot and cold preformances. Even Hull, and especially Les Dracs who are both top 5 now. 

I think its the nature of SL that on any given day most teams can take a pasting. 

Its only really Saints, Wire and Wigan who have turned a corner and may well win the GF who look like they won't this year.

Football leagues are full of average teams with a handful of excellent ones and it works just fine.
