Roberts played against Salford or are you referring to the fact he was anonymous?

Don’t expect anything tomorrow I think we’d be lucky to not loose by at least 20 but hope lads show a bit more effort than against Salford

says it all, not seen him since the world cup for ireland to be honest and that new contract

mead missing for catalan

mickey mac back for them

see the club have gone out for 3 days... not just flying in and flying out

Well it was a better, more energised effort. It fell apart when the team had to be switched around. Difficult to pick a stand out player. Again our star players didn’t shine. Probably Murphy before he got switched Outside, or Darnell -if nothing else for that brilliant chase down tackle to save the try.

Would like to see Roberts, Walne, Grix and Farrell dropped for the wire game and go:

Darnell
Jerry
Jake Wardle
Turner
Uate
Gaskell
Frawley
Matagi
O Brien
English
Joe Wardle
Murphy
Bruno

Seb
Taai
Mellor
Leeming

If Grix gets the nod over Darnell when Jerry is back - i give up
Ollie Roberts a shadow of the player he was 2 seasons ago.

Not sure young wardle will play but I agree with the above squad, and the comment about Roberts. Long contract syndrome appears to have set in there.
Faz doesn’t deserve to be dropped for me he’s offered more than frawley - but looks like he sustained an injury so won’t play anyway.
Walne hasn’t been terrible but you’d have taai in over him if available.

Walne has been good these last 2 games showed a lot more effort than most in my opinion

Agree - he's been far from terrible.

Impressively physical by you lot, I thought. Not too many sides go over there and better them at the rough stuff. I'd be encouraged at any rate, given the number of absentees.

showed lots of effort and commitment early on and deserved to take the lead but lost our way at catalans got on top

some poor defending by grix but used to that one on one

mcintosh showed some good things, look forward to seeing him back at full back

the game seemed to take an age , is there no shot clock on france?!

getting gaskell back will certainly help

shame clough isnt around, i think if we play english every week like we are he will get burned out, too young at mo to be taking the hits he does the way he plays every week will certainly need a break at some point during the season

loved the big hits by wardle and murphy!

Im led to believe he would have started the season in the centres and kicking if it wasnt for the niggle. Hes back fit for the Warrington game so id throw him in. Get Joe wardle in the 2nd row and drop Ollie Roberts who has been dire for too long now.

Good news if wardle is fit- I thought it was a longer term issue so be great to get him in alongside his brother.

was the shot clock in use?

game seemed to go on for an age
