Domestic side win the league

St Estève XIII Catalan  (4) 32

T  : Ben Pomeroy, Paul Seguier, Arthur Mourgue, Ugo Perez, Alexis Meresta-Doucet
G  : Robin Brochon 6

Carcassonne  (22) 24

T  : Vincent Albert, Luc Franco, Alexis Escamilla
G  : Alexis Alberola 4

Despite leaving the club (for a 2nd time) to return home to Australia, Ben Pomeroy got the Catalans up and running in this pulsating final.

He played his part along with a number of other first team peripheral figures in this win that secured the first domestic title since 2005.

After the farce of player ineligibility last year this will be a relief for those in the corridors of power at the Stade Gilbert Brutus.

Well done to all connected.
