Huddersfield is a market "town" just like Chorley, I thought you would have at least that basic knowledge of the place

But Toulouse also beat Leigh...

So last year

The terrific Toulouse team is stronger in 2017 than it was in 2016.

Terrific

The kids have grown up since last year tho' still pretty naiive at times, especially in the mud !

The banal Bradford team is weaker in 2017 than it was in 2016.

Still beat Toulouse, mind you.

Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"My dream is that hopeful Hull KR and terrific Toulouse can both beat witless Widnes and lowly Leigh and thereby replace those two teams in Super League. It may turn out that hopeless Hudderfield, having been beaten in the Challenge Cup by swindling Swinton, could be worse than the other Super League stragglers, and lose its Super League place. I would be disappointed if that happened because the city of Huddersfield was the founding location of our game, and the club has a good stadium. But the most important thing for the good of the game is that terrific Toulouse gets promoted to Super League, thereby giving more French players a shot at professional rugby league, and creating a local derby with Catalans. It will be hard this year, because the team is full of young inexperienced French novices. Next year that team will surely be stronger because of its 2017 experience, but next year it will be competing with the titanic Toronto Wolfpack, which will be the favourite for promotion to Super League. On the other hand it is just as likely that two teams could get promoted next year as it is this year.'" Swindling, lowly, hopeful, witless etc, all clubs above terrific Toulouse?? Why the hatred to other clubs that are not mamed Toulouse, this internet forum lark is getting you all angry and bitter. Why not go and get a cuddle off someone to calm you down, it does help. Also, I found this that could help you unwind, and its local for you. Hope it helps https://www.wherecanwego.com/whats-on/chorley

Bet that hurt

Terrific Toulouse Olympique are leading brittle Bradford Bulls 20-4 before half time.

Brittle Bradford's coach, Geoffrey Toovey, must be fuming.

Half time: 24-4.

If Toulouse don't get more than 40 points by full time then I will be disappointed.

Five tries in the first half but none for Minga the winger.

Toulouse is missing the goal kicking of Egyptian-Australian full back Mark Kheirallah. Replacement Tony Maurel cannot kick most of his conversions, Toulouse has scored 8 tries but only lead 38-4 (instead of 48-4) with 24 minutes to go.

Tony?

Sorry, I meant Anthony Maurel.

15 minutes to go.

Brittle Bradford's James Davies loses the ball over the try line. Score remains 38-4. 11 minutes to go.

Kuni Minga the winger runs 100 metres to score under the black dot. 42-4. Anthony Maurel converts. 44-4.
8 minutes remaining.

Kuni Minga the winger scores again in the corner. He has a hat trick. 48-4.
Anthony Maurel kicks the conversion from the corner. 50-4.

Rhys Curran gets his second try. Conversion missed. Toulouse 54- Bradford 4.

Kuni Minga the winger has been awarded Man of the Match.

Bastien Canet scores Toulouse's 12th try on the final siren. 58-4. Marion converts.

Final score Toulouse Olympique 60 Bradford 4.

Attendance: 3,603

I don't care if we have a team full of kids, 22 points condeded in the last 11 minutes is a joke.

He's eulogised over hkr quite a lot over the years, it's fair to say he wants less English clubs in the top league just as long as hkr are in there

Cracking result. Attendance not far off from what Huddersfield get

I like Hull KR because they have a very substantial fan base which is incredibly loyal, just as Bradford has. Hull KR also creates a great local derby with Hull FC. That is why I would like to see both Hull KR and Bradford eventually back in Super League, along with Toulouse and Toronto. (To accommodate all those clubs I would like to see Super League expanded to 14, especially if Toulouse continues as now mostly using French players, and if Toronto can make a serious good faith effort to recruit and train an eventual majority of north American players).

For once I agree with you the super league should be 14 or 16 and 1 up and 1 down
