Notes

A A test match between France and England is played in Paris over this weekend. Players on international duty miss their respective club's matches. Due to the test, and because ten Catalans players were selected for France,[1] the round's fixture between Catalans Dragons and Salford City Reds was rearranged for 7 August.[2]
