I would go for the centre Armitage.

i have said it before, dont trust catalan. Hull are also struggling and Saints will play their under elevens. We must keep fighting because all three games are easily winnable for tolouse.

HT Catalans 8 Salford 18. Hopefully Catalans won't field weak side next week if they lose today, could drop down in league.

Armitage, Alvaro, Norman

FT - Catalans 14 Salford 46

If Catalans do their neighbours a favour and field a weak side combined with the powers that be enthusiastically wanting to expand the game a few dodgy calls by referees might be enough to provide a lifeline for Toulouse
Let’s hope my sceptical view is unfounded.!!

Catalans recent form suggests they could field their strongest side and still get beat by Toulouse.

I agree dont trust catalan but they are currently losing 40 14 so they surley will want to win to go for home play off spot otherwise they could end up been away in playoffs ,saints will play kids but hopefully do same v us seen as they play wiganon friday then us on monday,also hudds may be in a position where there set in 3rd so they may not want to risk big names v us

All that said we have a injury hit kr at home to do it ourselves and play like last 2 weeks and that should be enough

The result by Salford was a good result for us, If Catalans wants home advantage in the playoffs they will need 2 wins in their last 3 games, as whinos are on a roll and will fancy there chances when they go over to France week after next.so they will probably have to beat Toulouse on thursday to stay in the boxseat for the playoffs, because if not they will need to beat Wigan away on the final weekend. By the way I still think we have at least one more win in our locker this season.

Can't buy that.

The number of teams that have gone to Toulouse and pulled out wins, a poor Hull team most recently, suggests nobody is doing them any favours.

Also Catalan and Toulouse are very different beasts, I actually don't see nay real value to Catalan if Toulouse stay up. Nearly all SL clubs send as many fans to Catalan as Toulouse would and they certainly spend more.

If Catalan lose, it's because they weren't good enough on the day.

Catalans need to win to stay in the top 4, Leeds are breathing down their neck and Salford have half a chance too.
Big game now for Catalans.

KR will be fielding a weakened side for sure they have little choice, we are playing our best rugby this year at the moment and we are at home, if Catalans want to do they're mates a favour which I doubt very much (would we want to do Leeds or Cas a favour when it's not in our interest I don't think so) personally if Cats lose it's because they are well down on numbers, it will be all academic after our game anyway MA
