damn, that should ensure bosc plays 5/8 IMO. I think after such a great season at Catalans John Monie was going to go with both of them in the halfs, Full Back has been a problem for France for as long as I can remember. Kiwi Jared Taylor qualifies on residency grounds and has had a great season this year, so I hope it goes good for him, if thats what Monie does go with. Jared Taylor, I've heard that name before, what club does he play for? Maybe One of the wingers/centres could handle fullback, khattabi, duport, murphy or Pelo maybe? are there any standout fullbacks in Elite?

I'm pissed Greseque is out, I wanted to see him play. Probably won't even get the game anyway so it doesn't matter if he played or not i suppose. I'll see him come WC anyway, unless France lose against Scotland and Fiji which I doubt. Hopefully I'll see France play at Skilled Park rather than Rocky.

from the RLWC08 site... lets help him out. This is mainly for people in New Zealand who want to watch the game. Sky TV in NZ will try secure the rights for the match, if theres enough interest in it. So it will require quite afew emails. If theres demand they try to show. So just wondering if anyone could help out. Im dying to watch the match, it being world cup year. That would be awesome. Email- skytv@mailap.custhelp.com Or the proper way they want you to do it- go to www.skytv.co.nz and go to contact. Thanks for your help if you do Sent an email last week and received a reply saying they did not have the rights... no word on attempting to get the rights. I have since sent another two emails with no reply yet. Also sent one to Fox Sports for you Jim. Here's hoping - otherwise does anyone know if we can watch it on the net?

Less than a week to go now, I checked the Fox TV Guide for a week ahead and the game isn't there so if we get it at all it won't be live by the looks. Surely they can show it thursday night when they play the ESL games. On MM weekend we got all 4 games instead of just 2 and since Sky will cover this I see no good reason why they won't show it. Might have to stay off the internet for 5 days so i can pretend it's live I think France will have 2 major advantages in this game, 1. The home crowd and 2. The fact that 1/2 their players will come for one team so perhaps they will have the advatage over the english in that most of the team play together on a regular basis and know each other's game. Although you may be able to say similar about England and Leeds.

Is the Test being played at the same time as the Wigan v Harlequins SL game? And what are Sky Sports UK showing?
SkyTV NZ has the Wigan v Harleaquins game scheduled from 6:30am until 10:00am Saturday morning (NZ time) - this is unusually long which gives me some hope that they're showing both games.

From what I understand they are playing both at the same time with France V England being the main game and Wigan V Quins on Red button. That sounds encouraging, NZ get better overseas coverage than fox, we have to wait 5/6 days for SL replays.

Still nice to see them giving the game alot of respect by naming their best side. Alot of young blokes in there too so the future looks good for England. I hope Joe Westerman gets a run, atleast he will gain invaluable experience in camp with such quality players. Rob Burrow weighs 66 kilos? thats ridiculous, the lightest guy in the NRL is 74kg or somewhere around there.

The Headline read "France name Super League players" like it was some sort of suprise. So from that squad Is it fair to say the team will look something like this: 1. Trent Clayton 2. Younes Khattabi 3. Teddy Saddaoui 4. Vincent Duport 5. Cyril Stacul 6. Thomas Bosc 7. James Wynne 8. Jerome Guisset 9. Julien Rinaldi 10. Adel Fellous 11. Jamal Fakir 12. Eric Anselme 13. Gregory Mounis 14. Oliver Elima 15. Sebastien Raguin 16. Remy Casty 17. Laurent Carassco 18. Pierre Sabatie (unsure what position he is)
