| UPDATE
In the last 24hrs ....... a promo video has just been released on Facebook. Look under Toulouse Olympique and share if you want to give international expansion a lift.
almost 4700 views in 24 hrs, and rapidly climbing .
5 players are back in for Toulouse that were not in the last Rochdale game.
3 or 4 are returning for Rochdale
Some supporters are telling me that Kilshaw is communicating that he will attack, and not use slowing tactics. He has told his players to be hard and provocative in the face of the Frenchman to force reactions, just don't let the ref or linesman see anything that could risk suspension in case they have to go to the playoffs.
He still hates the French, hates international expansion, but was told to improve his image by the Club as it risked bringing the club into disrepute. The CEO left his job, around the time of those earlier episodes. Enough was enough.
But despite all the public face changing Kilshaw is rope-able for the way fans and the RL community treated him for his bad verbal conduct and the grief from the 1st and 2nd games went. The Widnes games did not go unnoticed by Denis Betts and neither a few of the others including Doncaster and Hunslet. He will not want failure. He wants revenge and justification for his tactics even though he's pretending to soften his presentation with a new haircut, beard, being well dressed and complimentary of Toulouse. But Kilshaw hates Toulouse.
So Rochdale will not be slowing it down, they will attack, and attack hard.
This is Kilshaw's day - he must not make a mistake. Rochdale will be twice the side they were on the last visit.
Even though Toulouse beat Leigh and pushed hard to win the respect of Wakefield, they will have to be twice the team they were against them. This is going to be a very good Rochdale side.
But there's one thing I know, Toulouse respect all their opponents.- equally, Toulouse do not forget. Kilshaw's tactics will be the deciding factor.
Go Toulouse !! Vive expansion internationale !!

They have massively more potential than Rochdale.

| Having had to witness the abject performance against Toulouse few weeks back anything has to better than the negative RL dished up that day by the Hornets. Even the coach admitted the anti-rugby tactics didn't work in his interview a couple of days ago.

Because Toulouse is an expansion team that will bring thousands of new players and thousands of new spectators in France into the game if it rises to Super League. That is good for the game.
Rochdale by contrast is a little parochial English town that will add nothing in terms of new English players or spectators to the game, and will never rise to Super League, even if it wins.

| Quote DGM="DGM"No, I mean the game as a whole. Nice post though, written in the style of a 10 year old for some reason? Why some Leigh fans get so angry about expansion is really odd.'"
Well done Rochdale Hornets, all you 'expansion lovers' have gone a little quiet !
