First time in 5 years I’m not going. Was talking to a mate last night that is going and stopping in lloret he said there was only 1 coach which as around 30 booked on for the game. I think there will be a few staying in Perpignan but this time of year you will need to be wrapped up.

Have a good time

1st time me and the boys aren't going in quite a few years. Was probably gonna get a late deal but the flight prices aren't cheap at all. Have a San Miguel for me, por favor 🍻

Any idea as yet whether there is a way of watching the game on tv?

There was a suggestion that Sky would pick up 5 of their games, which would mean cheaper costs for another broadcaster to pick up the other 9.

Not heard anything since that article.

Just a thought, hopefully Wakey can manage to get the game on tomorrow. Will give Catalans one less day to prepare and probably reduce number of training sessions from three to two.

Looking at the weather it don’t look much different from today.

Have I seen somewhere that Les Cats have now secured a TV deal, though probably not in time for Sky to get involved before our game?

I believe Canal+ have re-entered in negotiations since the Folau signing. Might be sorted by their next home game, will probably take Sky another month or so after that to piggy back off the deal.

Anyone remember last time we won in the South of France? seems a while ago. Not a great hunting ground for us.

Read that McNamara said Folau is a few week away yet and David Mead is out. Hard to tell what sort of Catalan we will face with them only having played once.

IF we do win Saturday, we already put a nice 6 point buffer between us and Leeds/Catalan - the 2 teams everyone has tipped to finish above us for the top 5.

Wasn’t it 2017 when Zak went the length to score and Jy scored the winner his Superman try in the corner.
