And just wait, Dunbar, till we see moving pictures of Les Dracs as they set out on the road that ends at Wembley; that'll be cup-and-sorcery!

Boo!

Did you go to the game?

If so, did you also see Catalans v Hudds?

What was the difference between the two displays from the home team or are people not giving Hudds enough credit?

Huddersfield played well, catalans played OK especially when the bigger forwards where on the field. Huddersfields tries came mainly  from good kicks, and some good play picking out the young Romano on the wing as a weak link. catalans dominated Castleford in the forwards so the backs could play for a change. , cas looked tired, even in the warm up. Catalans played like they had something to prove.

The difference was huge. Hudds were good but we were shocking. 

Had we put on a similar display I'm not quite sure we would've lost the first game.

Or Huddersfield were better??

I never said that Huddersfield weren't good or better on the night. I haven't seen the game but the result makes it obvious that they were But a squad with the players that Catalans have, they should not be losing to any Super League side at home by 20 points. My comments were more based on the apparent lack of effort shown by Catalans in that game, something that happens with alarming frequency.
