If you would like to start a thread asking whether or not Catalans are a success story or not, go ahead, i will happily contribute

In that case Barry McKenzie will not bother.


To be honest there is nothing to debate.

Ok the locals like them and its a nice place to visit (apart from the fact the booze is a bit exy) for a weekend.

Thats about it.

The old 'are Catalans a success story' has been done to death.

It depends on how you define success I suppose.


From a footy point of view Barry McKenzie thinks they are going backwards.


It's good for the locals who seem to like their RL but from a purely football type of view Les Cats have not been successful and are unlikely to ever be.

Tell him he is still a coward, and still strangely committed to making this thread drift

So apart from the fact 'Les Cats' have a reasonable fan base around the Perpignan area how else would you deem they have been an 'unapologetic success story'??

Challenge Cup final 2 years ago, 80 mins from Grand final last year, semis in the CC this year - Not bad. The ground is being expanded, 20 K watching them against Wire in Barca, 13 in the French team, 7K per game

Not a bad record that, or will you tell me that's failure Bazza

oh the irony coming from a Cronulla fan!

Re: 2011 SL Transfers : Tue Jun 15, 2010 10:33 am  

Would this be the same Cronulla who were so desperate for half backs they signed a Super League reject?

Mick Monaghan resigned till 2013, that's better than a new signing.
