Romain Franco and Hugo Salabio : Wed May 31, 2023 9:28 am  

28 day trial

Not a bad winger. Played 8 times for Catalan and quite prolific for St Esteve.
Big prop. 22. Played one game for Catalan. Rest for St Esteve

Is he young and can he run fast

Re: Romain Franco : Wed May 31, 2023 9:41 am  

I was looking at the Toulouse squad last night, shame we can’t do some swapping with their players. Bretherton and Armitage maybe. Shame their season still in progress, Let’s hope this winger takes his chance. Let’s be fair, he will be faster than Taufua, most will be (get him into the second row!)

Think I'd still be faster than Taufua....

Well Hugo is 22 and big. Its a start.

I think you'll have to edit the title again at 12pm.

Not heard of them, but they’ll get my support. Good luck lads.

Re: Romain Franco and Hugo Salabio : Wed May 31, 2023 12:30 pm  

All they need to have is a modicum of the required skills for their positions and enthusiasm.
If they have that then they’ll be an upgrade on Torfua and Atoni

Toulouse are absolutely terrible this year and bear no resemblance to their SL team of last year or the Championship-winning team of 2021. They've had a lot of problems with injuries and it has exposed their lack of depth, they've lost 5 games already including their last 3 against Swinton, Batley and London.
