both attacks lacked something, wire the most, although i thought they defended better of the two as it was nearly all catalan 2nd half

| Catalans missed Anthony Gigot, who could have provided a bit more flair in attack. Ditto Fouad Yaha.

Three tries to two tells the story of the difference between the two teams.
If Catalans can get their star full back Anthony Gigot back, they will do very well this year.

| Bird looked really motivated which is good to see. There's nothing worse then seeing big money Aussies coming over for a holiday as Catalans must know.
Good to see Ryan Atkins keeping the crowd on their toes as per usual by giving them a quality pass or two.

Did he also celebrate knocking the ball on, or does he save that for the big games?

| I'm intrigued...
Have Catalan been given special dispensation against the new rules to speed up the play the ball....
Players should move immediately the ref calls move!! EcceptCatalsn seem to be players niggle.. join the ruck... lay on... wriggle a bit... read a novel... hold a telephone conversation with a relative in Australasia that they haven't seen for a week or two... put a load of washing in... wait for the cycle... put the washing out to dry... wait for it to dry... iron it and put it away in the linen cupboard... then move
That's watch as an impartial observer... I like neither of these teams!

Looked like Gary Oldman's character (Bex) in 'The Firm'.

| Gregory Bird told Bernard Guasch in 2009, as he departed back to Australia after a part season with Catalans, that he was eternally grateful to Catalans for throwing him a lifeline when he got in trouble in the NRL, and that he planned to return one day to help the Catalans team win some silverware.
So far he is on course to fulfill his promise. He returns to Perpignan in 2017 with his lovely wife, the former Rebecca Rochow, now known as Becca Bird. He performs admirably in his first game against last year's powerful runners up, scoring a lovely try and tackling his heart out.
God bless you Gregory Bird.

Had to do another runner to his French bolt hole.
5 year contract.
Bernard must be barking.

Didn't Bill Arthur mention Catalans have a player on a 2 year ban? is it Gigot?

Apparently, yes. He didn't fail a drugs test but has done something bad to the guy who takes the sample. For a 2 year ban has he shot him ?

Catalans have that dispensation for every home game, but have to play by the rules when away

I hope she has removed every glass from the family home and instead uses plastic cups

I'm not one that bites Gubrats. In every game, depending on which perspective you look at it from, you can pick things up. Also, calls that go for you one week might go against you the next. All part of the game I'm afraid. Look at how many high shots Warrington got away with yesterday. Next week they may be pinged for all of them. Swings and roundabouts

I'd say more per planned than just the normal ' win some , lose some ' you see in every game
McShane should have been binned , no argument , that wasn't ' niggling ' an opposition firecracker
Counted 5 deliberate shoves on players without the ball , one resulting in a try
A lot more forward passes in SL especially from the PTB , something we need to copy
A lot to watch in our first video session

Go on the Wakey board and read Avengers thoughts on what Leigh got away with. As you know, there is no love lost between us and Wakey, so for them to debate decisions that went against us is very uncommon. Like I said, it depends which perspective you watch the game from. Agreed though, there is a lot for you to watch in your first video session.

I thought the same - Catalans seem to be allowed to stay in the tackle much longer; although every team attempts to cheat in this way, I guess it comes down to who has the most skillful cheating technique.
