This is making me laugh

Last season there wasn’t even a thread for the match v Catalans

Not before or after the match

I emailed AP and told him that morale in the fans was so low we couldn’t even muster a single thread on a topic that didn’t exist, such was the despair

Thankfully we have a Topic for this match

What drives a Forum board to not post a Topic on a match - not one thread !!!!

We had a Catalans Topic for the corresponding home match last year which went from Tues 30th April and finished Sun May 5th and spanned the match played on Fri May 3rd.
174 comments and 16,400 views. Very little comment during the actual match and the thread was mainly concerned with injuries and opinions on Radford.

No issues with the disciplinary this week, good news as RH reckoned Ligi Sao could be in trouble.

Dangerous team. Very unpredictable.

Sam Tomkins looked back to his best with that Hat-trick against Castleford.

Maloney and Folau are World class on their day.

After two defeats and a poor recent home record, the pressure is on in this one.

Got to agree , Massive game for us , especially after AP's pre- seasons comments on how poor we have been at home and how it has to improve .

I thought we'd lose at Wigan but think we'll beat Catalans.
Here's hoping.

I cannot see anything but a FC win
I really can’t because if we lose then Radfords our

There’s my prediction

That’s why I’m convinced we will win UNLESS the players want rid of him

The pack we put on the park at Wigan was never going to give us the win. Will wait for the team news before a final selection this week but currently am with you with your prediction.

Just have a sneaking feeling that Catalans will make top 5 this year although like many others I have been caught out in previous years by looking at their squad and thinking they appear good enough for a top5 finish.

For me this is a "Really, really need to win" game, which is getting near to a "must win" one. To go 1 -2 at home this early in the season would really ramp up the pressure on radford and the squad and with some tricky fixtures coming up a win would give us some confidence going into those
