blue were grilling at their first contact

What did we learn that we already know, this late Tuesday afternoon in the near Rivesaltes hotel? Little or nothing ... You tell me that it was not the purpose of the maneuver, the key to the President of the FFR XIII, consisting of "selling" the two games of the World Cup 2013 to be held in France.Even the new coach, Richard Agar, has not deigned to pronounce the name of one player who typed Elite him in the eye in the semi-finals and final of the championship of France, which he viewed via video.Was it because, at the table facing the press, appeared Maxime Grésèque, the only non-Dragon of the lot, and as everyone knows impressive ease throughout the season 2012 - 2013?Still, that as a response to the question, we had to settle for civilized words, closer to the jargon that the information that was picked naively: "I saw some good young people and foreigners - it's just an observation, not a criticism - at these meetings is intense, though less compared to that prevailing in the Super League, and a healthy organization of the game "Ah, yes! The Wildcats guide explained that it was not his "philosophy", fetch for the France team "foreign players whose grandparents have French origins."
 Dimitri Pelo should not be ...He even said they "talked to Clint Greenshields and Dimitri Pelo", two potential candidates back in blue for World Cup, and he followed - by far, inevitably - the current course in Australia and Benjamin Garcia Tony Gigot, who figures to outsiders for a place in the list of ... 24 (and not 23, so).The case seems Pelo already set, if one believes Gilles Dumas, manager of traffic: "He married October 19, participation is compromised."The President of the French Federation, he stressed that "beIN SPORT is currently the only TV channel in the running for the broadcasting of matches of the Blues."So we did not totally wasted our time at this press conference back in Perpignan, another promise we are probably in July, and August 19, still in Perpignan for two other appointments of day. Still 40 "or more, but not necessarily the same," added Jean Alonso, Senior Vice-President of the FFR XIII, in charge of high level.
 A "shrink" passed by Manchester UnitedOh, I almost forgot: on the one hand the future captain is not yet appointed, the other we were introduced to a new member of staff tricolor, Damian Hughes, an Englishman, mental trainer of his condition, which works four years to Warrington Wolves, having previously provided advice to Manchester United and Sale Sharks.Because no one in the entourage of blue, not the cache: the successor Aurelian Cologni will not revolutionize all three shots ladle. Its main task is to know "how the group feels, and where does he go?"We have the answer: as far as possible, of course!
 Three full weeks of preparation before matrch in HullSerious things, in fact, will not begin until October 6 to Perpignan for a week working on the ground this time. Followed by another in Avignon, and a third and final will start with the friendly match October 18 Arnauné Toulouse stadium, against the United States on the eve of departure to Hull, where the Blues face off nine days later (27 oxtobre) with the Papuans.Preparation for the map, the Dragons, the evening of a long - and difficult for organizations - season, being mainly invited to a recovery program, while the few elite players who will accompany them in this perilous but exhilarating adventure, inevitably cooler with only three or four league games in the legs, on the other hand will be subject to a more dynamic system."Create an atmosphere in blue, for players who will be proud to wear the tricolor jersey," this is what Richard Agar will focus first.And it all began on Tuesday evening with a barbecue, which involved Jason Baitieri, recovering from his Achilles tendon operation, but not Younis Khattabi, on vacation in China and therefore not aware of its being convened, and Mathieu Griffi, apologized.
