Done. 25/01/17.: |
|
| Not a prayer based on today's performance. I've not seen much cause for optimism in the friendlies. Think we're looking at another hard slog. Catalans may well have a field day if they come up with early scores.

Kear didn't see enough of the ball today for me to agree with Ethan.
His positioning for the Tickle try could have been better but like I say he didn't see enough service today for me to make a reserved judgement.

I'd go against haveing Purtell in at right centre mate. Too exposed today. But then again with the Catalans Dragons having back three quarter problems he could be ok.

| Quote: MicktheGled "I know the season opener is just over a week away but how does everyone feel about the news coming out of the South of France
[iCatalan Dragons will go into their opening Super League match at Bradford without a specialist winger.
With last year's leading try-scorer Damien Blanch still recovering from wrist surgery, the Dragons have been rocked by the injuries suffered by French internationals Cyril Stacul and Frederic Vaccari in Saturday's 44-22 friendly victory over London Broncos.
Stacul will be out of action for up to 12 weeks with a broken ankle while Vaccari was seeing a specialist amid fears that his knee injury could keep him out for at least two months.
Fellow winger Joseph Negre has already been ruled out for the entire season after rupturing his cruciate ligament while playing for the Catalans' feeder club UTC in the French Championship.[/i
Even with the likes of Blanch, Stacul and Vaccari missing, you still have to say that the Dragons will start as favourites.
The hashtag #BraCat at the end of the topic name is an idea that was tried and tested towards the end of last season over on Total Rugby League.
The game it was used for Warrington vs Leeds (#WarLee) ended up trending.
Maybe it's worth a go for those members who are on Twitter to try #BraCat for any Twitter discussions/score updates about the game.'"
I'm pretty sure it didn't.

This one? www.totalrl.com/forums/index.php ... ng-thread/ - no mention of it.
It didn't. I know it didn't, because it's pretty much impossible for something like that to trend here. People are more likely to mentioned 'warrington' or 'leeds' rather than a select few using a hashtag.
I also know it didn't, because part of my job is to monitor social media sites, and I took large amounts of attention to the coverage of Rugby league on twitter during the last season.
Anyway, my prediction is Catalans by 16.

No not that one that's pinned mate.
I'll dig out the other one that'll be in the Total RL archive but the person behind the hastags idea did post that #WarLee was trending in the UK.

It's not that I think he played badly, but he's coming back from a minor injury and if he's going to play 80 minutes I think it would be best for him to train for another week, rather than be chucked in against Pryce, Menzies, Greenshields etc.
If he gets selected I won't think that it's a bad choice, i'd just like to make sure hes fully ready (although I suppose there's no point wrapping players in cotton wool)

I thought the selection of Briggs was the oddest choice, rather than the non selection of Kear.

I put Briggs/Sammut as I think 6 is where it is hardest to name someone.
We have 3 options, none of which look certain yet. But Jeffries was non existent today, and although Briggs didn't do much last week he's the one who's already had a partnership with Gale in the past.
But i'm not a coach, so it'll be interesting to see what Potter thinks by next week.

| Mick Potter said last night at the forum he expects Diskin and L'Estrange to be fit for Sunday.
