Pretty awful one from where I'm sitting. :evil:

It is starting to look like the lack of preseason preparation badly hurt Toulouse. The team is only now starting to gel. They have conceded many competition points that they need not have conceded, as a result of their poor preseason (e.g. against Sheffield).

There is still plenty of time for them to make the playoffs. If they can bolster their ranks with more French talent in May, especially in the forwards, then there is no reason why they cannot make the Championship Grand Final, and thus cement their Super League franchise for 2012

(Although making the grand final may not be necessary in Toulouse's case, it would be nice, just in order to silence the whingers from the small northern towns whose clubs don't get a SL franchise).

From the lads i know that went to the game, toulouse are the best team we've played in the league this year, supposed to be a big set of lads and a decent crowd on from all accounts.

l'indépendant gives the crowd as 3507, which is excellent (I would have guessed at half that from the tv pictures).

There are two grandstands along the side, and the main camera was in one of them. Hence you would not have seen a panorama of the fans in that stand perhaps?

Incidentally, why did you not go to the Toulouse game? Were you in Perpignan?

I heard through the grapevine that when his previous character (Albert Rosenfeld) was finally and deservedly banned from RLFans, he was also at the same time winding up members of a golfing message forum (and presumably was banned from that too!). :lol:
