Quote: catalanglais "I know that many dragons fans don't share or won't accept the view that French rugby league has produced very few really good players during the last 10 years,but I think this game and the failure to qualify for the last international tournament have proved the point.If the Dragons were only a French team we would be nowhere near good enough for superleague. I hope we sign some south sea islanders.Well done to Bousquet and I also thought Pelissier played well and Maria quite well.'"
If the Dragons were a French only team more French players would be playing in Superleague and that would be good for France. If we sign more south sea Islanders that surely prevents a French player making the Catalans team.
We have seen numerous French players leave the Dragons Gadwin Springer left and won the league leaders sheild!! so there is no doubt given the gametime French players can make the grade.
The problem is we are now looking more like PSG mk2 every year. only 1 of the starting 13 squad numbers is French
The proof is in the pudding as they say our best side of 2007-2009 contained the likes of Clint Greensheilds Adam Mogg Alex Chan Stacey Jones alongside French boys like Jamel Fakir, Thomas Bosc and Vincent Duport we made the challenge cup Final and were 80 mins from the GF
Fast forwrd to now and we barely stay in the league with a team of foreigners and you want to sign more
