I'm in favour of the expansion of the game, especially in areas that draw good local crowds like Perpignan. 


But after so many years I don't think Catalans have the right culture to move the game in the northern hemisphere forward. Perhaps this is more an issue with their club's ownership and management. Catalans should be a superpower team in SL by now. Instead, we have in effect a less ambitious version of Warrington, a club still over-dependent on NRL and even SL talent (Makinson?!), despite in theory having the whole of the French domestic competition to select from.


I can't for the life of me understand McNamara's longevity as a coach. Which other top SL team would take him? Richard Agar has done as much in SL, with a much shorter top flight career. Hopefully not in the frame for Arthur's replacement! And then there is the persistent reliance on Tomkins etc. 

keith senior explained it in his book...

Palasia,lisone,jenkins for props ?.
My guess Bentley and Smith share the 4th spot.


Bare bones,though. So unlucky. 

Anychance of getting RM back on loan ? ?
