Be an interesting scenario for sky if they do get into the middle eights or even super league. Would they have all the Toulouse home games on sky like Catalans?

Catalan games are on french tv thats why sky cover them as far as im aware.... so depends if Toulouse games are covered by the French.

They should be because the most senior person at BeIN France loves rugby league.

Toulouse is now running third on for and against after three rounds.

This despite the fact that they have been missing star five eighth Jonathan Ford for the last two games.

Back on topic....

It is worth noting that Toulouse were without four (4) of their regular first choice players, including hooker Kane Bentley and star five eighth Jonathan Ford. So they could have expected to do much better with those players in the team, and also if not playing on a badly deteriorated cow paddock.

Despite their loss, for and against has found Toulouse sitting in 4th place on the Championship table at this time. They should manage to give a drubbing to Dewsbury, playing in Toulouse next weekend. But it is early days yet. Let us see how they perform over the next two months before leaping to any conclusions.

But as I explained to you before Ioannes, those two playmakers are New Zealnd and Australia born, Ford I beleive is a Cook Islander no?
Toulouse have a fairly big % of imports in their 1st XVII, again I pulled you up on this a short while ago, it would seem that without the foreign contingent Toulouse are just a team of also rans.

Kane Bentley was raised in France, as was his brother Andrew. Both players are French citizens and hence are not imports.

Jonathan Ford, Australian of Cook Island heritage, is one of five (5) I imports, as I recall. This is not a huge percentage of imports. One of those imports is the brilliant PNG winger Kuni Minga. The rest, who are French, are very good players, not also rans. That is why Toulouse is running third, and is a good bet for the Middle 8s.
