Who?

Sanders is a second rower/prop (I think) Walsmley is a half-back, good player.

You may well be right. I've no idea really.

Came back on Monday according to my dad.

He could do with a game, having missed last week's. Why couldn't he have waited another week to punch somebody ?

Referee S Vincent

Who?

Which is what I said.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say hes French.

"Starry Starry night..................." as Don Maclean would sing!

Just had a quick look at their squad on Wikipedia to see if I recognise anyone, apparently Stuart Reardon plays for them! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AS_Carcass ... rent_squad

Didn't realise it was copyrighted.

Sticking your neck out in France isn't advised - at least according to Marie Antoinette.

Anyway, subject to injuries I don't know about, I'd go for

Greetings my feathered friends , hope you are all well , personally i think you should play your strongest team , as the cahance to be called European Champions should not be ignored ,Tubbs will no doubt pull you through , Charlies forcast ,Carcasonne 16 - Seagulls 24 .

Well - there was an injury, also for some reason Duane's cried off even though he wasn't injured, so amended team as above.

Carcassonne 12 Eagles 40 As Question of sport would say "What happens next"?

Everyone goes out on the lash and comes home. Hopefully delayed ahead of Thursday

Leigh are crowned European Champions unless Fev manage 2 win by 35+ ?

Naughty, naughty Frank!! The Fev game is now deemed meaningless (teehee) as the English lead the French 3-0 in the Anglo French Farce/Challenge......

Ah, but don't forget that Fev are playing the champions.....who aren't actually the champions! And the winners get this dazzling piece of silverware (wish I was kidding);

I thought we played the champions and therefore had the toughist match and therefore because we won we should be champions of europe but does anybody care except leigh who we will beat on thursday!!!!

The Fev game is the 'champions' game - they decided it based on Pia finishing top of the league before they cocked it up in the play offs. Not that we're bothered either way unless there's extra prize money available!

I too would have gone for a point for a win, nothing for a draw or defeat.

But - hey - the RFL have gone for a 2-1-0 format so we're winning 6-0 !!

Am I the first to return alive?

Game was a bit of a damp squib, to say they were the French champs they were terrible really. We never got out of first gear and I reckon if we'd played to our potential we'd have won by at least 70. Apparently they had 3 aussies missing but we had a couple of youngsters making their debut so i'm not buying that argument.

Speaking of the young lads - the number 13 (Lee Sanders?) played really well for the first 30 then got a bad whack to the eye and had to go off. He came back on with about 10 to go looking like a pirate and got sin binned! Definitely one to watch for the future though. Another lad (Nathan Walmsley?!) only got about 10 minutes and all I could focus on was his peroxide white hair.

After the game I got to see the players close up at a function thing - Scott Turner looks mean, wouldn't want to bump into him in a well lit alley, never mind a dark one! Slapped Misi on the shoulder and nearly broke my hand. Simon Brown believes he's the best dancer in Leeds.

More grapevines need to be planted in France - apparently stock levels of the alcoholic grape juice they sell are running low after this weekend.

The town of Carcassonne itself is a bit sleepy - the old town/fortifications are stunning though. Got some brilliant shots which I can whack on here if people want. The town also has one taxi.

Hello and thank you to Sanjunien for all the empheria he handed me, never spotted you after the game so I never got a chance to 'buy' you a beer!

A slightly quiet journey home - only 15 passengers on the plane! Fair play to Ryanair for actually running the thing and not just cancelling it like Easyjet do.

A great trip - bring on the next one (my liver doesn't share the same sentiments)
