Very professional job - Toulouse need game time - quickly.

I think they need to follow the Crusaders' lead and get on the phone to Australia quickly.

If you mean the big baldy bloke with the beard I agree. He worked bloody hard that lad. Tackled all night, and run the ball up well.

Is he French?

I think last year Fax were charging £14 for an adult ticket. Widnes tickets prices are usually in line with other teams in the division. A lot of the clubs with very few seated areas seem to charge about £14 for standing and then another couple of quid for sitting - making Widnes quite reasonable.

IMO the prices for the Championship level have been creeping up a bit in recent years and it would be good if a lot of clubs could afford to try and lower prices and see what effect it would have on attendances - but can't see that happening anytime soon.

With the recession hitting working class families hardest you'd think a game like rugby league would not only empathise with the fans (which makes financial sense tbh) but also encourage fans of sports that are much dearer to give us a chance by dropping ticket prices. Trouble is, we've all got to keep up with the Jones', so unless we all agree to do it none of us can.

Hi guys.
English Toulouse supporter here (crying in my beer! - Took me 4 hours to drink a pint as it was watered down by the tears). Our No: 8 is Brendan Worth, released by Penrith Panthers last season, and come over to play for Toulouse, although League Express have him playing for Toulouse Rugby Union!!
