| Toulouse have decisively thumped Whitehaven 38-12 at Toulouse.
Toulouse led 38-6 until the last two minutes, when the visitors scored a consolation try.
Now it seems that Toulouse have only three major competitors left on their march to the Championship grand final -- Barrow, Widnes and Halifax.
Toulouse have been restricted to five Antipodeans. That is less than Wigan and Hull KR regularly field in Super League. Yet Toulouse's Antipodeans are not top flight NRL players, such as you see in the Super League clubs. Toulouse is a club that thrives on French talent.
If Toulouse can beat two of Barrow, Widnes and Halifax then they are destined to be in the Grand Final. No other English clubs can come close to them.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Thing is he is fairly close to the truth
Only Fax will get anything from over there this year

| the french as history proves can be easily stopped.
may i suggest a franchise based in any european country where the opposition attacks and when they get over the half way line the french will the colaborate so as to make terrotorial possesion easier, then just as the french think they have lost their game, some plucky brit will come in to the frey and kick johnny forigners .
and then we all rot of to a cafe where rene makes us cocktails while trying to do yvette

The only way Widnes can become competition is if they buy up some of the remaining classy French LER players soon, before Toulouse takes the best of them.
