God wish i could say we are and while more confident than 4 or 5 weeks ago im not counting my chickens before they hatch.the 50 points or so turnaround tonight will help its not impossible for toulouse to make that up esp with us having 2 tough games in saints and hudds.but boy are we in such a better place than 4 week ago before the cas match so credit to all involved

For me id put everything into kr and make sure we get the win which is more than doable yes we took a hit tonight with whitbread and i reckon hood will end up banned.if we win that i would themgive youth and fringe players a chance and to learn in expense of the lads who are going.

Yes, chill out.

Toulouse would have to win 3 by 11 each and us lose all 3 by 11.
Then we'd be down.

Not impossible, so let's just beat Hull KR to make sure.

Mathematically no.


But pessimistic as I’ve felt this year I can’t honestly see it. Like you I don’t want to tempt fate so I can’t quite say we are safe but I certainly hope we are.

Let's not forget Warrington

Toulouse won’t win another game let alone 3. It’s done.

A win this Thur will I’m sure will see the resumption of next seasons recruitment/ retentions in earnest . Obviously you’d like to think talks have taken place with players and agents on incomings , but can said players afford to hang around waiting for us to secure safety ,that’s the worry . But with all the headaches that will no doubt ensue in the coming months for us , it’s a far better position we find ourselves in than the migraines Toulouse will get going forwards

Yes you are safe. So pleased to see the French down.

Watch the woke rfl change rules now!

Woke…

I believe we are now safe, obviously not mathematically but can’t see Toulouse winning more than 1 more game, that’s if St’s field a reserve side. If we beat Hull KR, or Toulouse lose for that matter making us safe if like us to start announcing squad Additions or releases, think it’s only fair to see what we have install for next year. Hopefully there will be some positive news.

After watching and hoping other teams do us a favour it would be nice to secure our own destiny with another win rather than hope Catalan beat Toulouse.

So who can we sign from Toulouse

So who can we sign from Toulouse.

No one hopefully.

Daniel Alvaro the only one who'd improve us.

I would go for the centre Armitage.

i have said it before, dont trust catalan. Hull are also struggling and Saints will play their under elevens. We must keep fighting because all three games are easily winnable for tolouse.

HT Catalans 8 Salford 18. Hopefully Catalans won't field weak side next week if they lose today, could drop down in league.

Armitage, Alvaro, Norman

FT - Catalans 14 Salford 46

If Catalans do their neighbours a favour and field a weak side combined with the powers that be enthusiastically wanting to expand the game a few dodgy calls by referees might be enough to provide a lifeline for Toulouse
Let’s hope my sceptical view is unfounded.!!

Catalans recent form suggests they could field their strongest side and still get beat by Toulouse.

I agree dont trust catalan but they are currently losing 40 14 so they surley will want to win to go for home play off spot otherwise they could end up been away in playoffs ,saints will play kids but hopefully do same v us seen as they play wiganon friday then us on monday,also hudds may be in a position where there set in 3rd so they may not want to risk big names v us

All that said we have a injury hit kr at home to do it ourselves and play like last 2 weeks and that should be enough

The result by Salford was a good result for us, If Catalans wants home advantage in the playoffs they will need 2 wins in their last 3 games, as whinos are on a roll and will fancy there chances when they go over to France week after next.so they will probably have to beat Toulouse on thursday to stay in the boxseat for the playoffs, because if not they will need to beat Wigan away on the final weekend. By the way I still think we have at least one more win in our locker this season.

Can't buy that.

The number of teams that have gone to Toulouse and pulled out wins, a poor Hull team most recently, suggests nobody is doing them any favours.

Also Catalan and Toulouse are very different beasts, I actually don't see nay real value to Catalan if Toulouse stay up. Nearly all SL clubs send as many fans to Catalan as Toulouse would and they certainly spend more.

If Catalan lose, it's because they weren't good enough on the day.
