Elimination Play-off, 2008 Super League finals series: Catalans Dragons 46–8 Warrington Wolves, at Stade Gilbert Brutus, Perpignan on 13 Sep 2008.
Sourcing caveat: Catalans' scoring previously listed only Justin Murphy's 4 tries plus 5 goals (26 points), 20 short of the real 46 — Rugby League Project's scoresheet lists five more single-try scorers (Bosc, Greenshields, Mounis, Casey McGuire, Pelo) who were missing from this entry; adding them (9 tries total) now reconciles exactly. Individual try minutes for the added scorers weren't identified in sources found. Catalans' own source page shows a genuine duplicate shirt number 14, worn by both prop Olivier Elima and lock Dane Carlaw — re-checked twice on this match's page and confirmed identically on this club's Elimination Semi-Final page the following week, ruling out a one-off fetch fluke; a web search for a disambiguating source came up empty, so Elima's 14 (the more plausible squad number for a bench-capable prop) is kept and Carlaw's is recorded as "UNCONFIRMED".
