CATALANS PAIR TAKE A BREAK

]Challenge Cup finalists Catalans Dragons are to rest ever-present forwards Jerome Guisset and Alex Chan for this weekend's engage Super League match at Warrington.
Guisset and Chan are two of only three players to have appeared in all the Dragons' 27 League and Cup matches this year, and coach Mick Potter wants to make sure they are fresh for the Wembley clash with St Helens on Saturday week.
Their places are taken by Adel Fellous and Lionel Teixido, while centre Vincent Duport and prop Mathieu Griffi also return on Sunday after missing last week's 21-0 win over Saints through injury.
Catalans may give a debut to Test three-quarter Cyril Stacul, who has joined the club from Villeneuve and is named in Potter's initial 20-man squad.
Stacul made his debut for France in their 42-14 defeat by Great Britain at Headingley in June.

Warrington (7) v Catalans Dragons (10)

Warrington are boosted by the availability of prop Paul Wood, who avoided suspension following his dismissal at Hull, while stand-off Chris Bridge and second rower Adrian Morley have both been using a hyperbaric chamber in a bid to shake off injuries. Winger Chris Riley takes the place of Stuart Reardon, who is out for the season with a shoulder injury.
Challenge Cup finalists Catalans Dragons are without forward Jerome Guisset, who loses his ever-present record due to an Achilles problem, but Alex Chan plays and there are recalls for Adel Fellous and Lionel Teixido. New signing Cyril Stacul is also named in Mick Potter's initial 20-man squad.


Last season: Catalans Dragons 16 Warrington 44, Warrington 26 Catalans Dragons 28

catalans went down 22 - 18, quite a competitive result considering where there minds would have been.
Both duport & gussiet where rested, this result ends there top 6 chances.
But with two homes games in the final three vs wakey & quins & a away match to the slumping bradford i think they are a good chance to end up on 21 & maybe 9th spot depending on other results.
In the end a massive mid season injury toll did not help, along with i think a big discipline problem the amount of blokes dragons get in the bin, anyway even 10th is a massive improvement on last, & they have been ultra competitve in most games.
Bring on saturday.
