| Quote: Butcher "Yeah Ashall-Bott is a huge gap for them - has been out with injury for long periods and they always miss him. Have a fairly good deputy in Robin Brochon but he's not in the squad either. So they've got two options at the back, play Benjamin Laguerre (Mathieu's brother obviously), or move a halfback to fullback and play Marion in the halves. Either way if we play well we'll be fine. Big if!'"
Why is it even remotely a big if? At what point have we not played well this year? Beaten narrowly just once on a ploughed field. I'd say that if there is a "big if", it's surely whether we play badly?

He's an OK player imho, but he does strangely seem to come to life against us.
Toulouse and Sheffield are our biggest tests since the opening game against Bradford. The Eagles are a mouthwatering clash, with the comps most fancied team, against this years surprise package. If we beat Toulouse we've nullified the threat from the team most expected to challenge us through the season, if we beat Sheffield we've slapped down an upstart - I'd be really happy with that, and frankly I don't care how attractively we do it, just as long as we do.

Yeah I'd agree with all that. Whilst I still don't think we've hit the levels we're capable of yet this season, I also think for any team to beat us they'll need to be at there best for the full 80 minutes and even then we'll be hard to break down.

Totally agree, we've been very patchy but we've scored plenty of points. What we are doing is defending like our lives depended on it.

| Is it for tomorrow or is it season tickets as a whole? Either way sounds like it’ll be a cracking attenDance for a home game against a French team!

Its a combination of the season tickets plus the sale of tickets added together (5500 ST + 1500 tickets)

Sure be nice if it was season tickets + 7000.
That said I’d be surprised if there’s 7000 there. Probably expecting around 6k myself

Although we want as many people as possible physically attending the game, the fact that we've sold over 7000 tickets, without and away support is superb, there is no downside.
It's certainly good to be having a game at home, it's been a long time.
Come on Trin !

| How to make a game harder than it needed to be 101. Gulf in quality between the teams but field position and possession should've seen us score 40. Id drop Lino, stoked the Toulouse's only really dangerous period with a brain dead elbow drop when tgey were trapped in the 10. Need to be better.

Forwards do there job thought rodwell was different gravey with renouf not far behind but halves is a problem lino is not good enough and for me we need a running half back

| Lino out in another vintage display of stuttering and choking the attack. Towards the end, Gale even started servicing Griffins side presumably because he was sick of Lino blowing things.
Surely it’s not just me who struggles with Lino. We simply can’t go back to Suoer League with him the main strike player in the team.

| Tough win, made it hard for ourselves especially with the lack of composure in the first half. Ain’t it good to have a coach who can get the team to improve with his half time talks?
I have to say Franco did alright even though they didn’t trouble his side much.

| We don't half make this game more difficult than it needs to be at times , we've got Toulouse inside their own 20 metre line and then Lino decides to let's say lose his head and before long it's 12 - 12 with kick to come .
Thankfully we are good enough to step it up and I suppose that's why the lack of discipline at times is frustrating because when we are bang at it we are a class apart at this level .
I don't want to moan with 6 wins on the bounce and top of the league but jeez I just shook my head at Lino because where we were stood you could see clearly what he did .
Thought Franco did ok tonight and Walmsley is just superb finishing in the corner like he does .
Feel like I'm nit picking but standards are important and with the journey we are on then they should always be high .

| Yet another "clunky" performance. Agree about Rodwell I thought he was outstanding today, We were the best team by far but once again ill discipline invited a team into our half and then concede . But a win is a win and at the end of the day that's all that matters.
