Hooray !!! A win on the road is one of the best things you can experience in sport and this was a special one against one of our likely long term rivals.
I won't go into TOxiii joining SuperLeague or us getting chucked out and the French league being our only home at this point in proceedings.
Let's just enjoy a heavy win away from home and revel in the local, domestic talent in the squad this season.
Fingers crossed there is a pathway to the first team.

I don't want to curse it but this is turning into a proper good season for us in the domestic comp.
Another great result in what is building into a decent season for Justin and the lads.
Another win for the reserves in the Super 13.

A golden point loss to Limoux was the outcome of this weekends match.
1 win and 1 loss from the two matches to date.
Match report from Treize Mondial
Catalan Media has broken the news that the domestic French rugby league calendar will be moving to summer in a seismic move and change to the season.

Lots of stuff about League 1 and combined competition between clubs in the two nations.
Sounds promising.
I am a bit gutted from the perspective of having all round Catalans rugby to watch, but bigger picture is in play here.
Tanguy Zenon and Ben Lam are the standout names in Remi Casty and Justin Murphy's first squad of the season as French rugby league starts this weekend Yay!!

The champions were run close by an improving Catalans side over the weekend.
Level at the interval this would have been a really impressive scalp to claim but we move on to Toulouse this weekend and hopefully a win.

Its taken a while but we are off the mark in the domestic league for 2021/2022.
After what I think is a record number of straight defeats to start an Elite 1 season this performance and win was much needed.
The baby Dracs are zero and two from the start of the season with a heavy defeat on their travels in Avignon over the weekend

It was raining points as the Grizzlies put the Baby Dracs to the sword in this opening round of Elite 1 matches.
Despite being up at the break, the visitors couldn't make that advantage count conceding points in the second half to the lose the match.
