Not the same French representation this time. marvwoodburn rlbrings us morerl

Bit of a poor do with the two less french clubs, I was hoping to see Limoux this time round.

I would like someone to explain why this has happened. I'll get on it

Whitehaven V FC Lezignan

Keighley V Toulouse

Both cup games are 6pm saturday evening Kick-Offs

looking forward to seeing the champs, hoping A bentley and N wynn sitting out last week is not too serious to keep them out this weekend.

Whitehaven having a must-win NRC game on Wednesday night must help Lézignan somewhat?

FR3 TV are sending a camera crew to follow them for this game - going to do pieces on the journey, preparation and match.

Yeah, they can still make the 1/4 of the NRC with a result against 'fax. you wouldnt think its at all what 'haven wanted, especially with this game being on the saturday as well.

On the other hand the journey up here is about as far north as you can go pro-rl wise so I dont envy FCL coming all the way from the south west of France.



Sounds good, hopefullt they will put on a bit of a show for the cameras then.

Is this station a national channel or is it more of a local thing?

It is a national channel, but the FCL pieces are being shown regionally, on FR3 Montpellier (which covers most of the South). They're doing 3 separate pieces.

I believe they are flying to the UK on Thursday, so plenty of time being allowed for the journey.

They fly out friday & are at full strength with the exception of Bentley who is expected back next week & Duggan who is banned from entering the UK

I still think they should have enough about themselves to turn Whitehaven over.

Well informed Phil
