Catalans vs Quins

[ParraEelsNRL]

Match starts in just over an hours time.

Catalans need to win this game to kick start their run towards the finals, if they lose this game, it may as well be season over.

According to Chris Irvine they need to win this for Super Coach Walters to stay in the hot seat for a while longer...

I'm sure Perry does.

They really should win this one... Harlequins are down a few regular first grade players: Orr, Randal, Heckenberg, Howell, Mbu and Williamson...

Will be good to see how the French lad, Gigot, goes.

With the number of 1st choice players out for quins, you'd think the Dragons would win this by 30+ at home, we'll see though.

Walters is doing an interview now on Sky sports.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

It's hot and humid in Perpignan... perfect weather for a Dragons win.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Yes, those black jumpers won't help quins either.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Bit harsh on Greg Bird there... he's been great.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

They are doing well by the sounds of that interview and the next match on the road looks like being held at a good time, should get another massive crowd.

Good stuff there about the Hull game they're taking up the road... and the developments of the stadium.

Apparently the Walters replacement stuff is rubbish - according to Potter anyway...

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Gilbert Brutus holds just under 10k... There's no way Minimes holds 12,000... it looks a LOT smaller...

I agree, maybe they allow more standing room in Toulouse or something.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

About to kick off, carn Dragons.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Good kick and chase from Bird... even makes the tackle...

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Has been a good start, no mistakes and no penalties after 5 mins.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Lucky there for Quins - almost made a meal of that... great kick from Bosc...

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Another good kick from the Dragons.

Playing well so far.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

Quins seem to be making easier ground... perhaps the Dragons are trying to wear them down.

 

[cumberlandsashes81]

That was a better set from Catalans... Greenshields almost got put through a gap.
