Hard game next week ,playing there in front of a partisan crowd who always seem to sway the officials
Staying in Perpignan for the first time so which are the best bars to go to ,only ever been to the bar by the Castillet before so need some info ,

jonny, friday night in bar le source is where everyone tends to go for a steak and a few beers+ wine


from le castillet, walk away from the bar,away from where we catch buses to ground, carry on down by the canal until you come to the big open square ( quick burger place and arago restaurant) turn left and le source is down that road.
there are usually some people in there during the day depending on what time you get there.

have fun mate,gutted to be missing out for only the 3rd time

I,ll have a few beers for yer

mate

Will be in La Source on Thursday night for a nice steak......and a few Cheeky Leffes.



Gareth/Steve - if you see this please can you pm me your numbers

Cheers

It's another game that we cannot allow complacency to set in! Catalan have lost all five games but it looks like a marked improvement against saints. We cannot allow them to continue improving against us!
We have a squad more than capable to take the Catalan side apart but our lads have to be in the rite frame of mind!
Looking forward to it, certainly could do with a convincing win taking us into the game against the wire the week after

the way catalans have started to you would think its a giants win, but always hard to go over there and get the win.

with the upheaval going on over there though we should really get the win.

not going this year, first match i will of missed since 2012

at least can catch it on skysports

It's going to be a hard game for us. We haven't hit close to our best form yet.
Catalans form is shocking but no doubt they'll get a win soon.
I think if we play a solid, safe game of rugby in the first half and try and win the battle down the middle then they will be ours for the taking in the second.
Bring on the challenge!

We need a strong ref please unlike the walley we had last season, high tackle Robinson given a red cos the crowd called for it!

Gonna be hard due to their crowd, if we can quieten them lot then we have a chance.

Hope to see a few over there, Bar Le Source on Friday night....Jonny, if you want meet me at the Le Castilet at 7pm if you want !

probably the worst reffing of a game i have EVER seen that last season from childs. Made the victory that much sweeter though!

notice catalans at 6/1 for the win with bookies, thats quite generous i feel.

It,s a date see you there

jeff lima up before the rfl for catalans so he could miss out for them

grix and lawrence also charged but they have the EGP so should be fine

Silverwood is ref

One of the stronger ref's so that's good news, feared we'd get Child again

Neither player have been up before disciplinary prior to 2012. Grix only three times including this in last three years - never charged. Lawrence four times including this in last three years also never charged - considering the amount of tackling he gets through he's obviously NOT a dirty player.

Just seen both put in egps - grix fined, Bruno fine and 1 match ban

what did bruno do??? not a dirty player at all... misses the catalans game then! someone will have to take his tackling duties on.

ferres/bailey/chan in second row

taai off the bench

faiumu prop off bench

dont mind silverwood as ref

Grix
Jerry
Leroy
Wardle
Broughton
Robbo
Brough
Crabtree
Wood (Is lunt fit?)
Koppy
Ferres
Bailey
Chan

Faiumu
Kaufusi
Ta'ai
Larne

Larne? Is he back then?

No hes still in a brace ......told me another 6 weeks, lunt back for wire hopefully

Hope he is fit for wire then only play him small minutes to get him up to speed ready for cup game against saints.

Fooey to run on at loose in Bruno's absence? Fairbank onto the bench (though I would recall Mullally - I don't think thats what Baloo will do).

1 match ban for Lawrence after egp !!

After some of the earlier disciplinary decisions this season -its farcical !



Just shows the inconsistency!

i agree has been really inconsistent... though consistent in catalans case with ban after ban!

fairbank may get his chance this saturday now with lawrence out

Bailey to come straight in for lawrence and start
