How do you know Gaskell won't be available?

I don’t It just didn't look great at the game so be surprised if he is.

It will be a tough ask in France. Just saw the Poching post match interview and when asked about Tupou and if he was ready there was a very firm no from WP.

I’m looking forward to seeing Minns though as I think he’s looked good in pre season.

Anything is possible after Connors broken hand recovery.

We're getting 20 start on the handicap, only Toulouse are seen as more likely to get done (22 start)..
It would be great to see one of those John Kear style wins, when nothing is expected and we come back with the points.
Wen was the last game when we really caused an upset ?

Be interesting to see who is in the squad and available to play ,

Re: Versus Catalans : Thu Feb 17, 2022 8:59 am  

One thing that I do think about Toulouse is that they could get a few home wins just on the back of unvaccinated players not travelling , few weeks into the season teans with 5 or 6 starters injured and a similar number of non vax idiots then they could be up against vastly inferior teams

Didn't do them much good against shudds though.

They looked gassed after 30 mins, lets hope that continues

Early days I know but they look a championship side, I don't think shudds will crack many pots this season either, and on that basis unless they come up with a few good imports it looks like being a difficult season for them.

Lol that is true. Connor was instrumental too with his delayed passes at the line. It’s just typical.

Looking forward to seeing the team soon. Usually announced at midday.
