| Quote JEAN CAPDOUZE="JEAN CAPDOUZE"Had the goal kicker Mark Kheirallah been more accurate with his goal kicking (he only kicked 4 conversions out of 9), the score would have been more than 50. The outstanding PNG talent Kuni Minga scored three tries, and youg French centre Gavin Margueritte scored two tries of a nine try total.
It seems that Toulouse has assembled a dazzling array of (mostly French) talent in their team. Here's hoping that they make the top 4 in the Championship and successfully challenge for a place in Super league for 2018.
A local derby in Super League between Catalans and Toulouse will do wonders for French rugby league -- attracting new fans, new players, new sponsors and more TV money in France.'"
And yet the two players you mentioned are not French but Australian and a Papuan. 6 of the first 17 players are not French |

So your prediction is
Avignon - Championship 2019, Super League 2020, then relegated 2021 (they are not in your list)
(wonder what the odds will be on that) |

But 11 of the first 17 players are French, and the remainder of the squad are French. It is a very French squad when you think about it. |

Avignon is yet to get a financial backer(s). I had hoped that this would be in the works by now. However it may take a little more time than I had anticipated. But please be patient. It should happen before too long.
If Toulouse is promoted at the end of this season then I expect a greater tendency on the part of French businessmen and fans to push for a team from Avignon to follow in the path of Toulouse.
I will certainly let you know if anything eventuates. |

Before this result apart from HKR I'd expect Toulouse to win all their home games , so nothing unexpected here , it's how many away games they can win which will decide if they make the top 4
They will still be in the Championship next season

The last 4 will have Schofield biting his flat cap in anger and kicking his whippet around the kitchen. |

There is no way that a Cumbrian team is viable financially or supporter wise or logistically (where would you locate it?). The same verdict applies to Manchester.
If we are to go to 14 teams from the list that I proposed, then the new clubs should be London and Sheffield. If we go to 16 then the new clubs should be Avignon and Newcastle. |

The Cumbrian franchise would go well in Carlisle. Manchester likewise in Salford. Newcastle doesn't have a supporter base. |
