Toulouse's last six games:

1st June: Halifax (A) Won 38-14
25th May: Widnes (H) Won 28-20
18th May: Barrow (H) Won 38-16
4th May: Dewsbury (A) Won 38-21
27th April: Wakey (A) Lost 28-12
20th April: Whitehaven (H) Won 40-4

Apart from the Wakey game when they only scored 12 points, they've posted 28 points or more in the other five games. Looks like our defence is going to have to be at its best or we could concede a few.

It's hard to find any evidence to suggest we can win. If they're 36 points better than Whitehaven, then we've got a struggle on our hands. Similarly, if they're 24 points better than Halifax, it'll be an uphill struggle for us.

As Dewsbury scored 21 points against them, there is maybe a ray of light that we could post some points and ask them a few questions.

Bookmakers prediction: I suspect the Dons will be getting a start of between 16 and 20 points.

Fair assessment pal and think your also bang on with the prediction, weather is not looking good for the Saturday though.

The score on 1st June was Halifax 24 Toulouse 38 (so a 14 point victory) but the point remains valid, you'd expect a home win on Saturday.

Ooops, sorry for the typo. I'd written the result as 38-24 on my piece of paper but entered it wrong when making the post.

Squad

Burns, Faraimo, Foster, Guzdek, Hall, Halliday, Hey, Holdstock, Johnston, Kenga, Knowles, Lovodua, Mafi, Matagi, McConnell, Pauli, Robinson, Sutcliffe, Tali, Taulapapa, Thompson

Halliday, Holdstock, Matagi and Thompson in for Briscoe, Wilde, Boas and Ferres

Boas and especially Briscoe are big losses, that squad isn't making me feel we can get a result so perhaps damage limitations.

Is Thompson a late replacement for ferres because he's in the squad on Don's website?

It's confusing, Thompson is named on the squad on the RFL site, but Ferres is named on the Dons socials.

I assume the one on the RFL site is the official squad they have logged so went with that one

Flight to bezier at 6am in the morning to take in the game then 6 days at a Eurocamp for the little one just outside montpellier, that stella will taste nicer with a win! (Still calling Don's +18pts though)

The RFL page has now changed Thompson to Ferres too
