Agree that the French need to keep players fit though but against us they looked strong.
London are light, we knew that at the start of the season, keeping players fit was the key, unfortunately that’s not happening at mo with some key players out or carrying knocks.
Not having a dig at Leigh, but you do have that extra half mil to play with which should put you in a decent position. Toronto!! Playing by the salary cap? Hard to believe but hey, london are reliant on DH wether we like it or not hence the light squad.
Toulouse Catalan million pound game anyone?
Totally agree with you on that. However, it would appear that we didn't spend it all wisely, and are lucky to have an opportunity to claw our way back into the race. Even now, we can ill afford more than a couple of slip-ups - still a tall order, with visits to London, Featherstone, Toulouse and Toronto to come, plus the 'Summer Bash' with Toronto. Hopefully, we changed our coach in the nick of time (and hopefully don't change this one!) and we can win most of those games, to stir things up a bit, between the top 6/7 teams!
