Just think what they'd be like if Bosc had been fit this season him and Dureau would have been a scary combination.

Perhaps the most telling thing is that he hasn't been missed. The job Trent Robinson has done is nothing short of amazing and if they carry on the way they're going he must be a great call for coach of the year.
Dureau, Henderson and Menzies have been immense but the signings of Blanch and Millard are proving to be very astute. |

This has to go in to the stupidest post thread, if you can't read then you really will struggle in life. Les Catalans Dragons. CatalanS. Not catalan, Cats is a shortened version, and is perfectly reasonable, if you don't like it, then don't use it.
Catalan is the english version of Catalans, but as they are french, they are catalans. After all, you aren't known as Wigan Guerrers, and we are not the Warrington els llops. |

I have Catalan friends who call them the Dracs while I've also heard Catalans and Dragons. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Great call.
As I've said on many threads on many boards Catalan(s) are by far the best team that has played at Wigan this season.
They were applauded by the Wigan speccies (and that takes some doing, sometimes we don't cheer our own). Dureau that night was outstanding and a joy (as an RL supporter) to watch. A fully fit and firing Catalan(s) is a major threat to any Superleague side. |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Seems the club agree with me and i'm sure they know more on the subject than you do, unless of course you are Bernard gausch??? |

you should tell, Wigg'n that or should i say wigan(you know as he has to have it exactly like it should be). but as has been said many times, their club badge, website etc all say Catalans, with the s. So that's enough for me. |
