GAME ON : Catalan Dragons v Salford Reds Devils - 17:00:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

In the light of yesterday's easy win for Warrington, combined with the injury-ravaged Catalans victory over Warrington and the referee last Saturday, I am now beginning to think that if Catalans can beat Salford, Catalans are strong contenders for a top 5 spot.

But you've tipped Silly Salford for the drop Jean so it's not really a statement of intent if Colossal Catalans beat them is it? Are Leeds strong contenders for the top 5 because they beat us? If Catalans lose at home to Salford will that make them relegation fodder?



I'm hoping Salford put in a good show today as we've got a poor record in Perpignan. We usually get absolutely shafted by refs over there as well who pander to the rather myopic Catalans crowd who seem to watch a different game to everyone else as well.

Jackson Hastings has been touted as the saviour of silly Salford. Let's see what he can do in Perpignan today while being harassed by the powerful Catalans pack.

Salford are very lucky that the injured French star Antoine Gigot will not be playing for Catalans today. But the aggressive Gregory Bird is back.

Salford win for me by 6.

DO you base that on super star Antoine Gigot being out?

Its a positive factor for Catalans that Gigot does not play, they might put somebody useful in the team which is obviously bad for Salford.

What a great last play of the half between Sio and Hastings.
Catalans getting spanked.

Salford haven’t read Jean’s script.

Crappy catalans have shown their true colours being yellow and slick salford will go on to win convincingly. Sulky Sam has beed terrible whilst the hero Hastings has ran the show for slick salford crappy catalans will need a miracle to come back fro m this

Should be 20-0. Should have been a penalty try and a yellow card for the foul on that last play of the half.

Too many bad Catalans forward passes prevented Catalans from scoring tries, while another Catalans bad pass gave silly Salford the chance for a length of the field try.
