Having only won 2/5 and being away from home then hopefully we'll be too strong for them ??

Jeez, how old is Harrison Hanson? He must be veteran status. I’m all for older players but that’s pushing it a little.

Other than that I don’t recognise many of them.

So long as we don’t assume anything from their league position, we should do ok.

There are a few teams we need to really put a marker against and Toulouse are one of them.

These are teams we will likely face off in the playoffs and we really need to assert our dominance as much as possible if not for psychological benefits when we meet them at business end.

From what I’ve seen of our team, we don’t look like we will let a team roll us over at home. Also that if things don’t go our way they’ll roll the sleeves up.

I’m optimistic the team will want to show up well at home this weekend.

This will be my first use of my season ticket as I missed the Bradford game due to being at a simple minds concert, looking forward to being back in my spot on the western terrace that I used to frequent before we were all encouraged into the north stand. Held a season ticket from 2004 to 2022 (only went to 3 games in 2022 and one of those was in hospitality as a guest of ASUS) had last year off and only gonna get to 4 or 5 home games due to also following Dewsbury this year. Really looking forward to it, gonna have a few drinks before during and after the game, hopefully get my love for trinity back


Personally think we’ll do a number on Toulouse, I believe the only team that will properly test us this year will be Sheffield

Ashall-Bott's pretty decent but he's coming back from a serious injury. Guy Armitage was okay a couple of years ago but is knocking on a bit now. Wakefield by 20. Sheffield will be harder the week after.

I'd like to things we've got enough to win this game. Concentrate on our own performances, tidying up errors and keeping discipline and we'll be home dry.

What's up with Vagana?

I was told that he had suffered a head knock and was being rested. Don't know whether it's true or not just what I was told

They’re only missing one player from 17 by looks so are pretty much full strength. Should be a good contest.

Looking forward to seeing us run out at home for first time in a good while.

No Olly Ashall-Bott - who usually plays well against us
