Great half from Batley. Expect Toulouse to kick on in the second half but you never know.

They certainly don't look like a team that's beaten everything in front of them away from home. Maybe having the big crowd and the expectation is getting to them.

I care not for your children, I care not for your wives, I care not for your country, I care not for your lives." - (c) Jim Boyes - "The Avenging Angel"

Yes they have played phenomenal. Whatever happens now they have had an amazing season.

It's great to see everyone here watching it and enjoying the game.

Definitely not a typical Toulouse performance by 2021 standards.

Indeed. Also, you don'tget into SL with your stadium! I expect them to win today but they need to better than this to win next week.

It was stipulated you had to have a certain standard of ground so you did at one point , but like you say you don't now.

the point being, it looks more professional on TV when you have a decent stadium and of course you attract more and better supporters and sponsors, which is what really matters to the club's stability.

Very good start by Toulouse leads to a try. They seemed to want to score off every set in the first half, whereas sometimes you need to put together 2-3 good sets to create a genuine tryscoring chance. 

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Cruel but incisive.
