OK, OK...so the international Bleus players ain't there.
Toulouse may actually struggle badly away at Racing...hehe, funny.
Toulon ain't exactly losing half their roster......
MP are missing only Big Nic'. Ouedra and Pélissié are down, and nobody wants Trinh-Duc :(
The first match there, SF and Castres, might be crap. They're both missing key players, especially the host...
 
In a perfect world all home wins, but that i doubt very much will predict later in the week

Oh you magnificent clairvoyant thinker...the common sense, the calm reasoning...all that constitutes the mind of a great being.

and we still await the verdict of the Gaston I note?!

Biarritz team...1 - Fabien BARCELLA 2 - Jean-Philippe GENEVOIS 3 - Benedict BROSTER 4 - Erik Lund 5 - Mathias MARIE 6 - Benoit Guyot 7 - Ueleni Fono 8 - Imanol Harinordoquy (c.) 9 - Dimitri Yachvili10 - Julien PEYRELONGUE 11 - Teddy THOMAS 12 - Seremaia BUROTU 13 - Charles Gimenez 14 - Takudzwa NGWENYA 15 - Paul COUET-LANNES 16 - Arnaud HEGUY 17 - Thomas Synaeghel 18 - Joshua FURNO 19 - Magnus Lund 20 - Yann Lesgourgues 21 - Dan WAENGA 22 - Johan Pietersen 23 - Francisco GOMEZ KODELA

Not sure what is the game here but very surprised to see Waenga, Lesgourges and Heguy not starting but even so, I think that the team will show some mettle and be imprved by the bench when they come on sufficiently to win this but only by a narrow margin!

As for the rest, I only see Clermont being away winners but Racing will have to play better if they are to win..............
 
Have to stick with all home wins (already got one out of one) as it will do Montpellier lots of good may not happen but with a team like this we should hopefully succeed but Bordeaux are an excellent attacking side and are never easy to manoevre , but we should have them upfront which give an excellent back division the room they need, plus a magnificent bench

2 tries already for Racing in 15min, both off interceptions. They finally look as they should with he host of fantastic players they have...Toulouse still struggling on the road....
 
wheww.....Toulouse save face at the last second literally with a try.......would've been another zip-scoring trip out.
 
pfff....coward......:p

now that Gaston completes a 100% 6 out of 6 predictions and i might add very difficult to say the least, can Big Ewis now explain his comment of "coward", either he does not understand the meaning or he is at his usual blumblings, but never mind, his apoligies will be accepted when they are presented, as Gaston does not bare malice.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
have a nice day and remember Gaston knows best.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
wow, that "coward" post really got to you didn't it ! Second reply to that (and counting ?) :p

Anybody watch that Stade Frugality Castres match from Friday night ?? Man, Hugo Bonneval is seriously starting to make it difficult for selectors to not pick him. While Julien Arias continues to shine on the wing. Looking at his career stats in the Top 14, one can wonder why in the world he hasn't been picked more in Bleus......
Speaking of wingers, big fan of Rémy Grosso here; Lamerat and Palis looked good too for Castres.
 
just a simple question, still waiting for the explaination, or are you also hiding behind a screen like many others face up or fall out little ewis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Keep it civil. You are completely overreacting to the most harmless joke.

you wouldn't say this is getting a bit erotic errr I mean sorry,*cough*cough* getting a bit 'silly', now would you dear gaston ?

Keep it civil. You are completely overreacting to the most harmless joke.

OMG !!!!!!!!! "A NEW CHALLENGER APPEARS" !!! He left his League shire to come out into the great unknown of not only Rugby Union, but TOP 14 !!!!! Now that's courage, gaston...take example on him.
 
I go away and you guys start misbehaving......do not do that!! I am here in the spirit.............behave both of you!!

The Gaston did not predict a wash out at Biarritz so not 100%..............!!!

Holy ****, hadn't realized Toulon had sloped so much !!! :p they're SEVENTH !!! :lol:
Very cool SF are first and Clermont 2nd. I love that Castres are right there at third, and Grenoble are just laudable at this point, 4th in a big name international filled Top 14...
but then Toulouse at 6th, that's just not acceptable.......can - not - win - away. They just can't do it in the Top 14.
 
I go away and you guys start misbehaving......do not do that!! I am here in the spirit.............behave both of you!!

The Gaston did not predict a wash out at Biarritz so not 100%..............!!!

Still 100% prediction of results, the wash out was not at Biarritz, its Biarritz who are the wash out Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
