Don't see anything wrong with that tbh.....

The only thing that could be wrong is if we wanted to book better flights and our own accommodation but they refused to contribute anything amounting to what the basic cost would have been for flights. In effect paying nothing because we had booked flights not them. Hard to judge when you don’t have all the details.

I’m sure it will get ironed out between both.

We should be allowed the basic money to then put towards to upgrade our flights but this hasn't been done

Perhaps they feel a bit aggrieved about paying us the airfair whilst we are signing Internationals on 4 years deals. I can understand why. It's a ludicrous demand upon rival clubs. For Catalans it's even worse as they are not competing against semi professional clubs.

Ludicrous or not it’s an agreement.

I can see Toulouse booking same day flights with unreasonable times and a long day but cheap (I would do that if I were Toulouse for an advantage). But if clubs like us wish to prepare better (as would SL clubs) then they should be able to make up the difference and still receive the payment that would be marked for the basic travel.

Again though despite what people say we don’t know the full details and we likely won’t. An agreement will be made I’d imagine with or without RFL involvement.

Exactly it's a contract. Perhaps the wording of thr contract allows toulouse to get away with this. My guess it will be changed next season if that's the case.

From Ryan air economy to private jet, welcome to the famous Wakefield Trinity.

I bet the players that were here under the previous regime keep trying to wake themselves up..
