He certainly has the talent, maybe that we've not being at our best for a few games that I haven't felt 100% confident he's our man but then that's the route we are going so I'm okay with that. The proof will be in the pudding as they say. I hope your prediction that we get back to playing better than we have in an all guns blazing performance comes true, we'll need it against Cats. I'll be in the city but can't attend as have something more important to attend to, I'll have to wait until it comes out on FC live to watch and won't even get the score until late afternoon.
Real shame you can't attend, espescially as your in town. Hope the other business goes ok.

I wonder if he'll be playing?
Hi CCS, Garcia will not be able to play in any of the remaining rounds of the Challenge Cup unless his signing was received by the RFL by close of RFL business on the Monday immediately prior to the Quarter Finals.
It is possible this did happen, and the delayed announcement from Cats this morning is because they've only just received confirmation from the RFL that its been sanctioned.
The comments of the Catalans CEO on their website suggest it was done in time and he is eligible to play.
Jodie Broughton, Pat Richards, Todd Carney, Rémi Casty, Glenn Stewart, Justin Horo, Jason Baitieri, Dave Taylor, Julian Bousquet, Eloi Pelissier, Greg Mounis, Thomas Bosc, Fouad Yaha, Morgan Escaré, Antoni Maria, Lucas Albert, Willie Mason, Romain Navarrete
Thats a very good looking side Catalan have available but think home advantage will count and we will progress., but fail to play like we can do and give dumb penalties away, we will more than likely get our backsides spanked.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

thank you, I haven't missed a home cup game in quite a while, because they aren't on a Thursday or friday (usually) it's easier for me to attend, a late afternoon kick off and I'd be all good but there you go. The thing is I hate looking at the score afterwards, it's like looking through your fingers to prepare for the worst and that wave of joy and a "get in" when you finally remove enough fingers to realise they've won. lol
If we play how we can then I've no doubt we can win, but sloppy play like we've seen of recent will hurt us badly. Fingers crossed!

This is a really tough game and one we will have to be really good in to get a win. les cats pushed us hard when they played at the KC earlier in the season when they were understrength and a weaker side than the one we will face on Saturday should really have won at wire last week.
I think they had a bit of a wobble a few weeks back but seem to be back in form again at the wrong time for us.
I'm really looking forward to this one, should be a cracker
