Got to be winning the Euros on a regular basis to push claims of being the best of the rest. Not sure that's the squad to do it though. Doesn't look too great in the halves - Fages excepted - or the outside backs.

Some of the other squads look similarly inexperienced. Ireland have included 8 from their domestic comp. Hopefully the tournament will bring through a few young uns. I thought France were poor at the WC and this gives opportunity for players to shine.

For Ireland they were on a hiding to nothing at the WC and again, it has to be good for them to get new blood through the squad.

Looking forward to the Scotland France game up in the borders.

Same for Wales, most of super league regulars have pulled out for one reason or another, cannot see Wales giving France A game over there with the squad John Kear has at his disposal, but does give some new young guys a look at international rugby league. think France will win the comp,???

That has to be the aim.

Any Tv coverage?

I think you guys will go ok. Kear has a good track record at getting the best out of the players at his disposal. Everyone's squad has a inexperienced look, Scotland look strongest IMO with 12 of the WC squad back.

Which makes me mad so many super league players from wales pulled out

Either way I am looking forward to seeing how your lads go on Friday up at Workington V Scotland.

yes will be there to support them on come on Wales

were you part of the welsh crowd over the popular side Cru?

I thought you guys did great in the 1st half and early in the second I thought you might have a chance! Scotlands 3 tries in 5 minutes following that made it an uphill struggle for your boys, you really lacked a forward like Scotlands Walker and the obvious, a Danny Brough.

Connor Farrer looks a good kid and the lad wearing 12 (matty Barron) impressed me in a beaten side.

In case you hadn't heard we got beat by Ireland 22-14, makes it hard for us against Wales next week.

Plenty of discussion/abuse for French RL on the VT. A couple of things for me. Firstly this isn't solely a Catalans Dragons issue, it's the game in general. Secondly maybe France needs to unify its season with that of the UK to avoid the situation where half the squad are tired from a long super league campaign and the others are under prepared being only four matches into the domestic season. Well done CMR for standing up for us on the VT as well viewtopic.php?f=2&t=575787

Aligning the season with the other pro leagues in the world is an absolute must. Don't know why it hasn't been done yet.

yes think the boys did ok with out there super league players danny brough a class above what we have at moment

yes we did ok first half but the likes of danny brough made difference we just did not have that super league class out there but well done scotland and now ireland what a result
