Blessé, Dupont sera-t-il de retour face aux Springboks ?

DUBLIN, IRLANDE - 8 MARS : Antoine Dupont, le capitaine de l'équipe de France, est réconforté par son coéquipier Maxime Lucu alors qu'il quitte le terrain après s'être blessé au genou lors du match du Tournoi des Six Nations 2025 entre l'Irlande et la France à l'Aviva Stadium le 8 mars 2025 à Dublin, en Irlande.

A la 29e minute du match contre l’Irlande samedi 8 mars, Antoine Dupont ne parvient pas à se relever. Il vient d’être victime d’un déblayage du deuxième ligne Tadhg Beirne, poussé par le pilier gauche Andrew Porter. Le sélectionneur Fabien Galthié se dira « en colère » en conférence de presse, annonçant qu’il a « cité des joueurs à comparaître devant la commission (de discipline) » en nommant ces deux protagonistes.

Pourtant, l’arbitre Angus Gardner, sur le coup, ne voyait rien à y redire. « Écoute, Gregory, je comprends vraiment tes inquiétudes. Tu dois nous faire confiance, on a revu ça. Parfois, dans le rugby, aussi malheureux que ce soit… il y a des mecs qui se blessent. Et donc, ouais, je… je comprends complètement, ouais. Je sais », tentait-il de rassurer Grégory Alldritt qui s’inquiétait de son collègue.

« Ce sont des choses qui arrivent, mec. C’est vraiment pas de chance… »

« Il y a suspicion d’une blessure assez grave au genou » confirmait Fabien Galthié en conférence de presse peu après sans donner plus de précisions. Plusieurs sources laissaient entendre qu’il s’agissait d’une rupture des ligaments croisés du genou droit, même si, à l’heure qu’il était, aucun examen précis n’avait été mené. Il fallait pour cela attendre que l’œdème qui s’était formé se dégonfle.

Si une telle hypothèse venait à se confirmer, la saison serait donc terminée pour Antoine Dupont. En 2018, déjà lors du Tournoi des Six Nations et déjà contre l’Irlande, il avait subi la même blessure. Il n’avait pu rejouer que huit mois plus tard.

Il n’est pas le seul joueur du XV de France à avoir vécu une telle blessure. Romain Ntamack, blessé en août 2023, revenu fin mars 2024. Anthony Jelonch, blessé en janvier 2024, revenu en septembre. Charles Ollivon, blessé début janvier 2025, retour espéré pour le début de la saison prochaine.

La durée moyenne de l’indisponibilité est généralement comprise entre six et huit mois. Dans une telle éventualité, non seulement Antoine Dupont manquerait la fin de la saison, mais aussi le début de l’autre.

Il pourrait alors faire son grand retour lors des Autumn Nations Series en novembre 2025 où la France a prévu d’affronter successivement l’Afrique du Sud (8 novembre), les Fidji (15 novembre) et l’Australie (22 novembre).

Mixed Wales update on availability of Josh Adams, Gareth Anscombe

As an artist, I’ve always been focused on my creative pursuits and never really ventured into the world of high-risk financial investments. But, like many others, I was drawn to the idea of making money quickly through Forex trading. Unfortunately, I fell victim to a Forex scam and lost a large portion of my savings. The financial loss was devastating, but the emotional toll was even worse. I felt betrayed, and hopeless, and wasn’t sure where to turn next. One day, while browsing through Red Note, a platform where people connect over shared experiences, I came across a post from someone who had gone through a similar situation. They shared how they managed to recover their lost funds through a company called Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Desperate for a solution, I decided to reach out to them and explain what had happened to me. I was initially skeptical, unsure whether this was just another scam or if it could be the real deal. To my surprise, the team at Tech Cyber Force Recovery was professional, compassionate, and genuinely interested in helping. They listened carefully to my story and assured me that they had the expertise and resources to help recover my lost funds. The process would take time, they said, and I’d need to provide some documentation, but they were confident that they could help. After several conversations and a thorough investigation, they started working on my case. The results were incredible. Within a relatively short period, Tech Cyber Force Recovery managed to recover nearly all of the funds I had lost. It wasn’t an easy process, and it required patience, but the team’s dedication, attention to detail, and methodical approach paid off. I felt an overwhelming sense of relief and gratitude. What had once seemed like a permanent loss was now being reversed, thanks to the help of Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Not only did the recovery restore my financial situation, but it also restored my sense of trust and confidence. I had almost given up hope, but now, with my funds recovered, I feel like I can move forward. I’ve learned valuable lessons from this experience, and I’m more cautious about my financial decisions in the future. What began as a desperate search on Red Note turned into a life-changing recovery. Thanks to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, I now feel more hopeful about my financial future, with the knowledge that recovery is possible.telegram (@)techcyberforc  texts (+1 5.6.1.7.2.6.3.6.9.7)
