Might pick a team to root for this year and buy some gear

Which is a mid range club with a possible chance of success but not nailed on ?

Give me some names and I'll pick the one with the best shirt (and if they sell it in my size)

Sod that slight underdog nonsense, go for Carcassonne, we have easily the best medieval citadel in France and a statue of Puig Aubert.

Link to Lezignan v St Gaudens, doubt Maloney will be playing though.

Sam Moa is still there as well.

Sam Moa has broken his arm unfortunately- will be out for a few months. Jason Baitiri should be ready for early November start and James Maloney late November or early December

Didn’t know there was one. I’ll roll in at 1830 as usual.

I fancy watching the Avignon - Carc match so hopefully they will confirm something soon

Me too

I notice that on facebook someone asked if the match will be steamed live and Avignon responded saying no.

[barnyia]

I'll be going to the game I reckon.

So …. Where are you staying ?

Good individual effort by Benjamin LaGuerre. I'm backing him to be a SL player eventually

Who was that who just scored for Albi?

I live in Albi.

Good opening game of the season, best team won. MOM Brad Wall with Baptiste Fabre a close second. Too many errors from TO.

La guerre looked ok but did fumble a bit on high balls. Was hoping to see the young Sangare but he was 18th man. He walked past me during the game and he looks a clone of big brother.

[barnyia]

Nowhere near his big brother in playing standards!

I thought Baptiste Fabre looked decent. He's a good prospect

Yep, class act. He came from Villefranche a couple of years back. Julien Cance looked pretty solid at fb. 
Houles was watching, I imagine he would have been more impressed with some of the Albi players rather than his lot.

Is that what you call it..

I agree with that I thought Toulouse were poor and lacked fitness.

I did that last year, picked Limoux because I could get their shirt (which is nice) and they seem like a sound little club.  You can also get a decent range of Carcassonne merch iirc. I originally wanted Villeneuve but all you could buy at the time was a bright green windcheater.
