In this instance I have noted that nobody got the bonus correct, so all is well. But I'll set the deadline earlier in future

It's looking as if, though the vast majority have called the right result (Bongser not in that happy set), even the biggest Toulouse backer will be out by a factor of two! If the Frenchies had a kicker it would be a bigger factor! Impressive. Perhaps this season won't be a two horse race.

Yes Toulouse have certainly laid down a marker (For anyone not seeing the result they handed Batley a 44-6 hiding)

The test will be their away form ,and possibly squad depth. But if they continue to be virtually invincible at home and pick a few wins away, then they could be in the mix for the Top 4

That game really surprised me. Whilst I wasn't expecting Batley to do as well as they did last year, I thought Toulouse may struggle stepping up to harder competition with almost the same team they had in Champ 1. Got that one totally wrong though!

Same here. Toulouse looked very good.

Sorry lads (& lasses). Think that that might be another two points to write off. Here's a travel planner: http://yorkshireairlines.co.uk/

Two sides to that coin;

1. If a Champ 1 side can do that well in this league, it means we're in with a shout,or
2. Oh $hit - another team thats going to thrash us in this league
