| Quote JEAN CAPDOUZE="JEAN CAPDOUZE"I didn't include Andrew Johns because he only played 2 or 3 games.
Trent Barrett was not as influential as even Gregory Bird was in 2009. That is because in his first stint at Catalans Captain Gregory Bird lifted the club from the depths it had sunk under coach Kevin Walters to playoff contenders. He was a charismatic inspirational leader. I foresee more such success in Gregory' second coming.'"
I could be wrong but didn't Trent Barrett lift Wigan from relegation fodder to GF contenders?
Plus i remember you spouting all this e when you signed Todd Carney among others.

You could be wrong and you are wrong about Trent Barrett.
Todd Carney has been proven physically and mentally brittle. Plus he is not successful with women. That is not the case with Gregory Bird. There is no comparison. Gregory is a tough hombre. And he comes well equipped with the former Becca Rochow. Look out for a rejuvenated Catalans team in 2017.

He didn't appear that successful with Katie Milligan or Lara Bingle.
One misdemeanour to many after the recent Brunswick Heads incident.
Was probably time for GCT to ship him out.

| Quote [Gareth="[Gareth"and the Catalans elasticated salary cap springs into life once more'"
With the value of the pound plunging, Catalans paying players in Euros and the salary cap limit in pounds. I would expect Catalans to have a lot of room left on the cap.

| Every year Jean you make an announcement regarding the player that's going to make Catalans the champions that year. As of yet it hasn't materialised. Catalans have a deep routed culture issue that they need to address. One player isn't the answer nor is a team full of washed up second rate Aussies.

He's 32, & your team will win nothing in 2017, you harp on every year that the saviour of French rugby has arrived, see you next season Jean, do you even travel to away games, or are you just a keyboard fan?

Steven Menzies was 39 when he retired. Gregory Bird is as fierce a competitor as Steven, and will inspire his team to reach new heights that Hull FC can only dream of.
I spend so much money on home games that, like most Frenchmen, I cannot afford to travel to away games.
However I have a friend in Wigan whom i can stay with, when I want and am able to afford to fly abroad to see Morgan and Romain playing at their new home ground, and Eloi and Antoni at their new home ground nearby.

Please explain to me what Catalans have won...ever??
Money for old rope, agents must be rubbing their hands when the Catalan club are on the look out, is that where your English partner lives pie town? Any player that wants to win silverware will leave France pal.

| Sadly Catalans can sign all the quality players they want, but they won't win a thing until they replace their coach IMO

We only dicked you four times out of four this season, sticking 132 points past you in the process.
So who knows, the bar brawling, cop car urinating, glass smashing, sex-text pest, may just elevate you to dizzy new heights next year.
But then again.....................
