Elite 1 Round 5


Recommended Posts


The two best maybe FCL-Pia along with Albi at home to unbeaten Limoux. The Catalan club unbeaten at home and gave Limoux a tough game up the Aude valley earlier. Albi after losing  away at both Pia and Carcassonne need to show up in the Tarn on Saturday.

On Sunday last year's champions Carcassonne face up to the Dragons' reserve side at Stade Domec after the young side got their first victory against Villeneuve last week. Be interesting to see if Morgan Escare turns out for the Canari. Interesting too up in the Pyrenees with home side St Gaudens receiving TO and hoping to hold on to their undeafted two home game record. The visitors with no wins yet but got very close last week against Lezignan - just two points the difference

What a game at Albi 22-22 all against undefeated Limoux. It took eleven minutes in overtime for Pierre Carivenc to get the ball over the cross bar.and the Tarn side the victory. This now gives the Grizzles with the the two other Aude sides with one losses followed by Albi, Avignon and St Gaudens with 2 losses after five rounds.

That leaves new comers Pia with 3 losses all away from home.Crushed at Lezignan with Australians Malony and newcomer Norman from Toulouse to the forte. Pia had it hard just after the break with one sent off and a second player yellow carded.

The bottom gives us with 4 losses. The Baby Dragons, now more than ever called with such a name,  with one win against Villeneuve/Lot. The Catalans were all over the place at Stade Domec as the Canari ran riot first half. To their due though the visitors respounded with some gusto which may keep them on an upward curve later on.

That leaves us with TO Elite 1. They have only played four games as the opener at Villenueve was posponed as some players were called up to play for the French 'B' team to play against the England Knights. The last two games though have seen them go down by just 2 points once against Lezignan. I think there's a chance to see them also better times.
