Catalan's travel problems : Fri Sep 25, 2020 11:31 am  

https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/sport/18748386.catalans-dragons-team-flight-change-warrington-wolves-gamne/ They've been forced to switch departure airports due to high winds. Probably no worse than being stuck on the M62 for a couple of hours but disruptive non the less. Hopefully the game will still be on.

I do think we tend not to give Catalans enough credit as a club for managing their travel and putting the performances in on the field.
Flying in and out of Perpignan every couple of weeks must take it's toll. Jet lag definitely.
Not the same as the motorway lag you get on the M62....

I guess by now they will have decided the best way to manage it (in and out in one day?), but it's still quite a tall order.

It would make sense to switch the Wigan v Wakefield game to 6 o'clock kick off and the Wire v Catalan to 8:15.

Bit of a difference haha, it's a 2:30 hour journey to toulouse that's before the flights.. Fingers crossed they make it surely would make sense switching the games around and putting us vs Cats last

Keys words there Brian are "make sense", rarely found in the same sentence when talking about Rugby League unfortunately.

Comfy 2 points for your guys tonight?

Hope they don't change time have a table as per government guidelines booked in the Market Inn straight from work 16.45.

Catalan have landed in Liverpool. They were due in at about 3:30pm but The Guardian only confirmed it at 4:20pm. A bit of a rush for them but, as things stand, game on.

looking forward to it.
