Three pptential (probable) debutants to add to the list.

When more than one makes his debut on the same day do you number alphabetically by surname?

Forgot to mention its on the gogglebox for those of you moving house/new Fathers.

i.e. me.

Position order

ahh ok.

Why no Dureau?

Discipline hasn't gotten any better, that's for sure. Why we continue to employ Elima is beyond me.

Do you like Laurent Frayssinous, obviously he's no Robinson but it does seem like you should do better with the players you have.

he was shocking last night, a decent early run out for both sides, we'll see you in the playoffs I'd imagine.

Pelissier going off was the determinant factor of the game's outcome.

Had he stayed on it would have been Catalans rather than FC who won the game.

Dureau not playing was also crucial.

The amount of luck FC have game after game after game is nothing short of unbelievable.

Pretty much like the garbage you continue to post.

I like Laurent but he needs to help the players work out the fine line between being fired up and complete idiocy. On the plus side, the attack looked sharper than at the end of last year.

So what do you think about Catalans' impact hooker having to go off after a few minutes of coming on?

Everyone is raving about Heremia's performance (which was admittedly good), but his job was made a million times easier by the fact his opposing bench hooker was injured so he enjoyed the luxury of facing Henderson who was already knackered and due to be on the bench until the end of the game.

This type of luck won't continue forever.

What about the luck they had when Elima stayed on the pitch after he tried to takeAzza's leg off. Get real, we don't have more or less luck than anyone else.

Couilles absolus, le Zodling.

Archetypal FC fan responses to an opposing opinion.

Instead of dissecting and breaking down the opinion they prove themselves to be the muppets they are by either answering with another question of discrediting an opinion with no reason what so ever.

Had Pelissier played out his planned spell, then Catalans would have gone on to win the game comfortably because not only would he have capitalised on Catalans dominance of the ruck in the first 30mins and improved it with his lively, energetic and improvisational dummy-half play, Henderson would have also been fresh at the back end of the game.

Consequently, Heremia's performance would have been negated considerably and FC's go-forward would have suffered.

If you can't post a counter argument then you're welcome to concede that you don't have one.

Guess that must mean that I've won the debate then!!



Anyway, why don't you have a word with the mods on your board to lift my ban and I'll happily debate with the rest of you!!!

Sorry we spoilt your Friday night.

Are you mad? Henderson was great last night.

Our 7 was not playing either... =#FF0000Edited. JD

I enjoyed the game if not the result.

Either side could have won or lost it and that cant be bad for the game.

Some nonsense in this thread though !!

Agreed J, I felt confident prior to the game and was going to suggest we dropped the old daunting "in-joke" for this season and so felt even more confident during most of the first 40 yesterday

I thought we were looking good in patches, but the same old problems with discipline. Momentum changed and Hull took control, I thought Whiting was superb for Hull in that spell and I suppose we did well to claw our way back into the game.



New season, same old 'ull

Let's try a new thread title next week then
