jean , if you were happy with that performance then god help you. Catalans are bloody awful and if you are relying on Mason well it does not bear thinking about . Leeds will finish above Catalan although where that will be is another story . Leeds are poor at the moment so enjoy your win as i doubt there will be many more .

Catalan are poor at the moment but, if they stop making as many unforced errors and with the pack that they have, they could be a decent team, possibly top 6.
Taylor looks dangerous with ball in hand and whatever you say about Mason, even in his current unfit state, he made plenty of metres when he carried the ball

I've watched both of Catalans last two games, and both were woeful performances. The only difference being the opposition.

A fully fit FC side stormed past them whereas a demoralised Leeds team couldn't quite do it. Both Leeds and Cats need to improve asap to challenge top 6.

they'll win the 2 home games

I agree that Catalans Dragons have been poor in the first three rounds. But remember that there has been a huge turnover of players since last year and it takes time for the new players to gel. There is a lot of talent in the Catalans team and their performances can only improve over time. I expect them to move from their current 8th to 6th or higher as the season rolls on.

The difference is Leeds have a lot of players to come back whereas Catalan are basically full strength, plus have somehow managed to splash ("waste") money on Mason.

Leeds will be top 4, Catalan might just scrape the 8.

Despite all the money and effort that has been spent in the close-season, if I were a Catalans fan I would be much happier to have last years squad (remaining injury-free) than to have the new lot. They will need time to gel. I suppose the same could be said for Leeds who have all the injuries as well.

Catalans won't look a proper side until they change their coach.

I agree with that. To see some of the comments about us on Twitter after the game you would have thought we had mugged Leeds.

Lots of turnover of players will mean we will have a slow start. Just have to grab enough wins to stay in touch and let the performances improve.

You mean his son Justin.

HTH

Credit to Leeds for not giving up. Catalans have got to sort themselves out, hopefully just a question of new players gelling. Elois was magnifique and boy did it pi55 down!

As for Mason surely they must have some big French boys! Why let Springer goo and bring him in!

who cares ? Catalans should be in the French league....
