Investec Champions Cup

Cameron Woki (UBB) et son genou en vrac : « S'il est foutu, il est foutu dans tous les cas »

Il y a 18 heures

BILBAO, ESPAGNE - 23 MAI : Cameron Woki, de l'Union Bordeaux-Bègles, alors qu'on l'aide à quitter le terrain après s'être blessé lors de la finale de l'Investec Champions Cup opposant le Leinster Rugby à l'Union Bordeaux-Bègles au stade San Mamés, le 23 mai 2026 à Bilbao, en Espagne.

Sorti touché au genou gauche en cours de match face au Leinster, le troisième ligne international de Bordeaux-Bègles Cameron Woki s’est montré pragmatique après la finale de Champions Cup remportée 41-19, son premier titre avec son club de coeur.

« Je pense que c’est plus de peur que de mal », a affirmé Cameron Woki en zone mixte après la rencontre. « J’ai des genoux hyperlaxes donc je pense que j’ai un peu de chance, mais j’aurai le temps de faire des examens, de voir avec le doc. Là c’est juste un moment de fête, pour célébrer cette victoire. Et le genou, on prendra le temps de faire tous les examens. S’il est foutu, il est foutu dans tous les cas. »

Le pourquoi de la ceinture de boxe

Revenu au club après trois ans au Racing 92, Cameron Woki arborait fièrement une ceinture de boxe, un cadeau du club. « C’est un clin d’œil sur l’objectif de mon retour à Bordeaux, de remporter un titre. A chaque fois que je marquais un essai, je faisais cette célébration, pour dire aux gens que j’étais rentré pour ça. Et le club m’a fait un joli cadeau en personnalisant cette ceinture pour la victoire », a expliqué Woki, aperçu régulièrement dans le groupe élargi du XV de France pendant le Tournoi mais qui n’a connu qu’une sélection en Bleu ces deux dernières saisons.

« Je suis très heureux, très heureux, parce que ça a été un chemin très long, très long. On a eu une compétition très dure, on a affronté toutes les meilleures équipes d’Europe pour arriver jusqu’en finale, donc maintenant on peut être fier de nous. »

Rennie to shuffle No 10 pack as Richie Mo'unga's comeback is pushed back

Not sure why all these people are living in the past and expect the ABs to grow by looking backwards. Mo’unga may prove to be the best 10 in NZ, but he needs to prove it because he’s been away for so long. It amazes me how players who leave seem to grow in skills and ability that they didn’t have when they played in NZ. Sure RM did some really good things, but he also made a lot of mistakes that gave the ball to the opposition. Saying he needs to prove himself in the NPC is the correct thing to do. While the Boks have done well with bringing players back from overseas, the reality for them is that their home competition and economy is so awful they have to because they can’t afford their top players to stay in SA.

For me NZR is doing the ABs a huge service in retaining the policy and keeping the best players in NZ. Sure there are a lot going off shore but for the most part they are fringe players or ones who have realised that they aren’t likely to get selected and so are off to capitalise on their ability to earn for their families before they get too old. Good on them.

Just because you cap a player does not necessarily mean you build true depth. You can cap him give him 5min and hardly ever play him again.

The last thing NZ rugby needs is to follow the disastrous policy RA are doing and recruit some mungo who doesn’t understand the game, won’t know where to be on the field in attack or defence, can’t pass accurately both ways, can’t kick and who will take 3 years to do what rugby players do instinctively. FFS! lets not follow that stupid path.

Israel Leota looks like he’s a good potential candidate for the Highlanders. They need a strike winger now Lowe is going.

Always thought NZ super rugby/npc should spend a lot more time recruiting in Oz league for NZers for fullbacks/wings/centres aged between 18 and 23. There are a colossal number of players from NZ who get recruited by NRL teams. Almost all don’t make it. A lot because they ain’t good enough, but some because their skill set doesn’t suit league.

Finger of blame quickly pointed after Leinster's Champions Cup beatdown

don’t worry Eric, I have no Saffer genes …. lived in South Africa in my youth, so something like a Saffer-at-heart (especially after Apartheid was abolished) …. but I do have a soft spot for the Irish as well 😉 …. and yes, if Nienabers gameplan doesn’t blend well with the overall Leinster gameplan, he’s not the perfect fit, regardless of his merits - I don’t think he’ll have difficulties in finding a new job 😉

Rennie to shuffle No 10 pack as Richie Mo'unga's comeback is pushed back

I am neither a Kiwi nor an AB-fanboy, so I don’t feel any entitlement to participate in that discussion …. all I’m saying is the ABs are, as of now, always a serious side, regardless whom they field …. they don’t have the absolute dominance of 10 years ago, which is a good thing for rugby in general, in my opinion

btw, I don’t think the Boks have any absolute dominance either, they are the team-to-beat right now, but they are not as (almost) unbeatable as the ABs were once - again, a good thing for rugby in general, in my opinion

No “loyalty” to incumbents, selections based on current SUPER RUGBY PACIFIC FORM and heavily centered on rigorous work ethic, uncompromising conditioning, and baseline skill execution..

Jamie Joseph pinpoints where Highlanders repeatedly fell short in 2026

I’m not saying to have them rely exclusively on high school talent but teams should be able to retain their top local talent rather than lose them to more regularly successful unions on a regular basis. Look at what’s happened to the Manawatu region, who lost the entire Whitelock family and Codie Taylor to Canterbury before any of them could even play a game there. Imports are part of the game but if it’s a top talent that was either raised in your region or already plays in your region at a position that’s not of surplus, you should have more ability to have their rights. Also on the note of Tupou-Ta’eiloa, he moved to Moana because he wants to play for Tonga i.e. the actual purpose of the team.

The salary cap in SRP is very poorly enforced, especially when you compare it to leagues like the NRL or most of American sport. There’s no salary floor, so a team like the Highlanders is regularly spending much less than their other NZ teams and the whole AB top-up system means that you can essentially pay a bunch of good players much less for their SR salary than they’re worth because the players get enough of an AB top-up that their SR salary doesn’t matter. Given that the ABs have eligibility rules that require them to play SR anyway, it shouldn’t be a massive stretch to slightly increase the salary cap but include AB salaries in there. It’s not being “penalised for doing things right”, it’s keeping teams from hoarding talent and making sure the competition stays fair. Happens in the NRL every time but if their systems are as good as advertised (like Penrith, who’ve had to let go of a star every year to a lesser team since their title runs), then they should be able to rebuild. There’s a reason why the NRL’s had nearly every team (except the Warriors, Dolphins and Titans) win a premiership while SR has become top heavy with a lot of one sided results - one competition lets you hoard talent and essentially lets you pay them with hidden money legally, the other makes sure players are paid what they’re worth for the team.

That was a great game , but the Chiefs have yet to learn , To quote Tommy Rudonakis , Never give a Mug a even Break , they should never have kicked those penalties, That was the wrong way , keep playing , put your foot down on the throat to say .

T Vai is a serial mug , smug rubbing the opposition players heads is a sure way to get them fired up to rub your nose in the mud in return , Literally .

Jamie Joseph pinpoints where Highlanders repeatedly fell short in 2026

Wanting teams to retain their high school talent would be an own goal for the Highlanders, which relies almost exclusively on imports. Straight away they’d have to give up Holland, Lienert-Brown, Tangitau, JRK, Lennox, Dunshea, Lowe, Shearer, to name just a few. It’s also hard to have much sympathy when they let gems like Tupou-Ta’eiloa slip through their hands.

There is an enforced salary cap in SRP, but teams with better coaching and culture perform better and generate more ABs, which nets them bigger national top-ups. Taking the latter into account would inevitably result in a cap so high that it’d almost never bind, otherwise clubs would be penalised for doing things right and ABs would be required to change clubs every year.

Of course they can have a postmortem. To be fair, when your attack fails, the first port if call shouldn't be the defense coach.

My assessment was that they were outmuscled when defending and attacking.

“the teams growing, getting stronger every year…” Not on the basis of evidence it’s not. The Highlanders have been on an inexorable downward trend since Mauger left, broken only by the single year Dermody was in charge, while Joseph has made things demonstrably worse, apparently without consequence. The Teflon Man.

Just imagine though if Super Rugby had a properly enforced salary cap or draft system to make sure talent is actually spread evenly across at least our NZ sides (though ideally across the competition as a whole). Teams like the Landers only need 2-3 injuries to starters to have a massive downturn in play (and far exceeded that) while teams like the Crusaders can lose an All Blacks prop and hooker and still have an All Black prop and hooker as a replacement. Be great if they could’ve kept talent from Otago like George Bell (born there and schooled there), Bower and Lio-Willie (both part of Otago).

To keep them in NZ. You just heard it from the horses mouth, theres no way NZ can replicate SAs pipeline to replace players that leave, it needs to use the AB jersey to keep as many of them hear as possible.
