That David Ferriol is due to retire at the season to work full-time at his vineyard.

Some opposition fans disliked him, but perhaps just a case of sour grapes as he used to bash most of their forwards about. A fearsome competitor, and surely one of the toughest props to play during the Super League era, he will be a massive loss for the Catalan outfit.

This in addition to the departures of Trent Robinson and Clint Greenshields, will we see a weaker side from Perpignan next year?

I heard Marvin Gaye is dead, can't remember where I heard it.

Probably.

You've already listed the reasons why!

but they wont WINE about it and im sure they will be vine

"Sour Grapes" - very good. Perhaps he has just lost his bottle!

Bloody hell, don't give up the day job.

Too late, he's already made his decision.

Wine making can be a precarious business I hear, one bad harvest and there's thousands wiped out.

Haven' got one.

Put a cork in it

.......................that Marvin Gaye ( Snr ) was a wrong'un ?

What a plonk(er)

Phew, I opened this thread in terroir that it would be full of daft wine gags.
