Know I will get shot down for it,but am I the only one who think it will be a big advantage to let Catalans play all there home games at home in second half off season. The temperature should be higher there than here then there is the travelling . A yes \ no reply would be nice lol

It looks like they could be losing Folau....

I'm guessing they've seen this coming as they've just gone out and signed Dean Whare from Penrith...

I actually disagree on this because of the following, nothing against Catalans, but why should they play all there away games one after the other of which several are likely to be in empty stadiums yet from the second half of the season all there games would be in the height of summer probably with some crowds by that time.

I do not feel this is a level playing field.


I think that you may not be taking into account that they will have zero income for the first half of the season AND have to fund their whole squad living in the UK. Plus, this problem isn't of their making, this is about finding a solution so that we can have a meaningful competition.
Can you imagine if Trinity had to play all of their own games away from home, with players kept away from their families for 4 months.
Surely, it's about trying to ensure that we can actually have a SL season.

If you have a better idea, go for it. What we have here is a possible solution to keep the game rolling and travelling to and from France, either for them or, their opposition, looks like it may not be possible - certainly not in the immediate future.

Another point regarding Catalans playing all their away games together. If Sky decide to use just three or four grounds like last season for all the tv games how could Wakefield v Catalans at Headingley be classed as our home game. This scenario wouldn't be a level playing field.


If this happens I think relegation would be scrapped again. Relegating a side based on an uneven comp would be embarrassing. Possibly think that this was one of mitigating circumstances that decided their would be no relegation

What your saying Wrencat is that you prefer a trip to the south of France rather than Featherstone.


I love going to Fev and tbh, I think they should have been promoted instead of Leigh.

However, the Catalan away game, unless it falls right at the beginning of the season (in normal times), is a great away trip.
I know that not everyone can go and not everyone wants to but, it's a great weekend away.

France is a beautiful country and what better excuse for a jolly, than having to go to watch Trinity play.

At some point in the future RL could do worse than having "magic" in Barcelona.
Watching RL in the Camp Nou would be superb.

A better idea is for them to play in France with other French teams and strengthen the game there. Never been a fan of them being in the competition. The pandemic could go on for some time finding a solution for Catalans brings other issues then over here for instance it destabilises the fixtures. There could yet be political interference either side of the Channel too.
