Pro D2 : fin de saison pour Marques, Ancely et Pauta à Béziers

Samuel Marques, Clément Ancely et Otunuku Pauta

La saison 2024-2025 aura finalement été celle des montagnes russes pour le demi de mêlée international portugais Samuel Marques. Sacré meilleur joueur de Pro D2 lors de la Nuit du Rugby en septembre, il se rendait coupable d’avoir craché et jeté un verre sur une hôtesse lors de la soirée qui avait suivi, alors qu’il était en état d’ébriété.

La LNR ne lui avait infligé qu’une amende de 3000 euros et un blâme pour « atteintes à l’intérêt supérieur du rugby ».

Courant décembre, le joueur disait souffrir d’une épaule – au niveau de la coiffe – et une intervention chirurgicale s’est révélée indispensable, le contraignant à rester au repos pendant plusieurs mois. Début mars lors d’un entraînement, c’est son mollet qui lâchait.

Finalement, mardi 18 mars au matin, l’ASBH Béziers (4e de pro D2 après 23 journées) annonçait que le joueur de 36 ans aux 24 sélections avec le Portugal, était contraint de mettre fin à sa saison de façon prématurée après avoir disputé 19 matchs sous les couleurs de Béziers et trois sous celles du Portugal.

« Mauvaise nouvelle : fin de saison prématurée pour trois de nos joueurs, Clément Ancely, Samuel Marques et Otunuku Pauta. A la suite des examens médicaux effectués durant la semaine de coupure, les résultats ne sont malheureusement pas favorables », a indiqué le club.

Le troisième-ligne Clément Ancely (32 ans) est également forfait après avoir porté le maillot à 14 reprises cette saison (titulaire dans 93% des cas ; une seule fois remplaçant), victime d’une importante luxation à une épaule survenue lors de la défaite 14-0 contre Agen le 14 février.

Enfin, Otunuku Pauta, troisième-ligne tongien de 26 ans arrivé en 2023, met un terme lui aussi à sa saison après 15 feuilles de match suite à une blessure au pied.

« Un véritable coup dur pour notre équipe, le club tient à exprimer son soutien total à Clément, Sam et Otunuku. Nous espérons les voir revenir encore plus forts et prêts à retrouver le terrain dès le début de la saison prochaine », indique le club.

Late Makazole Mapimpi try earns the Sharks win away to Edinburgh

Jake White described this as the strongest Sharks lineup ever. There is no doubt that it is at least an impressive roster. They did win, which is obviously an achievement against a good Edinburgh side. However …


For much of the first half Edinburgh seemed easily able to create 2 on 1 opportunities on both wings, with the defensive wingers biting in on the inside runner and cover defence being AWOL. Conversely the Sharks showed little ability to get behind the Edinburgh defensive line, with the sole exception of a nicely-exploited Am mismatch against a second row (which led to the Fassi try).


In general the Sharks, with their full complement of Bok firepower, do not look that dangerous in attack, and while tackling was good on the whole and goal line defence was impressive at times, they were exhibiting surprising breakdowns in open play defensive structures.


Also, the Sharks continue to be inaccurate, with material impact on the scoreboard. Missing two very kickable penalties is not the way to be the best. It looked to me like the Sharks contestable kicks were not well enough executed, and were too hard to recover.


Not sure what the running attack was trying to do, but my guess is that they were trying to pull off a Harlequins-style bash-and-offload game off of 12 (Esterhuizen). That’s not a terrible idea with the personnel available, but it would require creativity and a precision on second phase that was not in evidence.


Lastly, you have to have better discipline. It’s great that the team can cope with a 13 vs 14 period (of almost 10 minutes), but smart teams a avoid cards.


Having said that it was great to see the win. I thought that Edinburgh were cynical and niggly. Always hanging around on the wrong side of the breakdown, lots of intentional obstruction, illegal dummying at the base of the ruck, etc. They played a dirty game and the ref tolerated it. Always good to see that not succeed.


Overall the “best Sharks lineup ever” scraped the win, but under-performed their Bok-laden potential. Again.

Back in January, I got caught up in a cryptocurrency scam that really turned my life upside down. I invested a jaw-dropping $214,000 in BNB on what I thought was a legitimate crypto site. For a while, everything seemed to be going smoothly, and I was excited about the returns I was expecting. But then, when I tried to withdraw my profits, everything fell apart. The scammers froze my account and demanded more money, claiming I had breached some sort of agreement. I was completely devastated and felt trapped in a nightmare. It got so overwhelming that I started having dark thoughts about ending it all. Thankfully, my family noticed I was struggling and stepped in when I finally opened up about what was happening. During one of our talks, my niece mentioned a group called (Trust Geeks Hack Expert). She had heard they helped people recover their stolen cryptocurrencies, and I was intrigued. I thought, “Could this be my saving grace?” So, I decided to reach out to them and explain my situation in detail. To my surprise, (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) was incredibly responsive and compassionate. They reassured me that they had dealt with cases like mine before and would do everything they could to help. I was a bit skeptical, but I was also desperate for a solution. Amazingly, within about three days if I remember correctly they managed to recover the entire $214,000 that I had lost! I was in shock. It felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. If you’re reading this and you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, I can’t recommend (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) enough. They are truly exceptional at what they do. Reach out for help, and don’t hesitate to contact them. (Trust Geeks Hack Expert)
