Heart breaking for Dragons put up a good fight but saints too good in the end

Toulouse play tomorrow

Whoops , must have been an earlier game that I saw on line.

Worst Touch Judge of all time?

When Maloney kicked for touch, Coote jumped with his foot already on the line, put his foot back down, jumped again to knock the ball back into play and the Touch Judge missed it all.

Some terrible calls all of which went Saints way.

The decision at the end was reminiscent of the voluntary tackle in 2002 which was a major talking point over here (and still is) from Grand Finals past.

We need the captains challenge over here because our refs are terrible.

Not confident at all . However, you know as well as I do. You play a team from Cumbria that you are ina game because we are an aggressive lot. We will take anyone on.

We have a decent coach, I hope we win. If we do we have Derby next season v Barrow an Whitehaven.
I grew up watching the amateur game, Seaton Rangers in the Cumberland amateur league. I love that club to bits because we produce lads who play semi professional, my pro team is Workington. We aren’t great but I live in hope because we have produced some great players and I think we can get to ESL.
Go Town. That is my club

That is my heart not my head. I hope win win

Need a strong Workington team. Bring back the halcyon days of Spider Walsh. Remember going their to see Hull play and the crowd was fantastic.
What was the name of the pub across the road from the ground.

Needs a Cumbrian team in ESL because the amateur game is decent and the players will have a pathway. Atm anyone half decent either leaves for St Helens or Wigan , alternatively never fulfills their potential by playing in a lower league

Sailors Return?

It could well be. It was only a small pub, but very welcoming.

Happy days.

Agree, it would be boost to the game. It's great the Championship sides are negotiating their own TV deal. One is already announced.

And a derby against Haven next season

Those scenes are what sport is about, pure joy and inclusion.

The assistant coach is self isolating so the trophy went to his house

How cool to have a French Derby in ESL.
Has Toulouse got more of a French flavour?
Noticed in the GF Catalans I think only had 1-2 French players? For comparison Saints also had a French player

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

It’s a pretty big city Toulouse, approaching half a million people

 

[The Falcon]

I loved the noise the crowds made throughout the games, its one thing the Southern Hemisphere game could take a lead from - both oval sports codes

 

[Sky Waka]

And that's league for 2021.

VIVE LA TOULOUSE!

Jimmy needed to retire going on that performance, no zip left in his legs at all. Drinkwater outplayed him IMO. Dragons really lacked any speedsters, the backs were no threat at all.
