Les Fijian Drua se rendent à leur match... dans la remorque d'un camion

Les Fijian Drua

Les responsables du Super Rugby Pacific ont confirmé enquêter sur la dernière mésaventure vécue par la franchise Fijian Drua à l’occasion de son déplacement en Nouvelle-Zélande le 22 février pour affronter les Hurricanes lors de la deuxième journée du Super Rugby Pacific.

Après un atterrissage à Auckland vers minuit, joueurs et staff ont découvert avec étonnement que le bus censé les emmener à leur hôtel était introuvable. Après plusieurs appels, ils apprenaient qu’une erreur de la compagnie de transport avait entraîné l’annulation de leur réservation.

Sans autre solution en pleine nuit, l’équipe n’a trouvé dans l’urgence qu’une solution : s’entasser à l’arrière du camion initialement prévu pour transporter les bagages et l’équipement de l’équipe. Près de 300 km dans ces conditions jusqu’à Napier, à une heure avancée de la nuit.

Si d’autres galères ont touché l’équipe – chambres pas prêtes à leur arrivée, l’équipe contrainte de quitter leur hôtel plus tôt que prévu alors que les Hurricanes étaient mieux traités dans le même hôtel, allocation des pires places sur une colline et dans la boue pour leurs invités… – c’est bien le transport dans la remorque du camion qui a suscité une légitime indignation.

« Comment est-ce que ça peut arriver ? Ce qui me frustre le plus, c’est qu’après un long vol, l’équipe arrive à l’aéroport et découvre que son bus a disparu. Plutôt que d’attendre encore trois heures, les joueurs ont dû grimper à l’arrière d’un camion pour rejoindre leur hôtel. Et comme si ça ne suffisait pas, on leur refuse un départ tardif, les laissant errer ou dormir dans le hall pendant des heures… pendant que les Hurricanes, eux, peuvent se reposer tranquillement dans leurs chambres jusqu’au coup d’envoi », s’est interrogé publiquement l’ailier international Nemani Nadolo (30 sélections) sur sa page Facebook.

« Beaucoup disent qu’ils ont perdu ce match dans les dix dernières minutes. Mais en voyant ce qu’ils ont dû traverser, je pense qu’ils l’ont en réalité perdu dès qu’ils ont atterri à Auckland. Maintenant, réfléchissez à ça : à chaque fois qu’une équipe du Super Rugby se rend aux Fidji, elle est traitée comme des rois, avec escortes de police et un accueil cinq étoiles. Vous imaginez une équipe australienne ou néo-zélandaise vivre un truc pareil ? »

Le directeur général du Super Rugby Pacific, Jack Mesley, a réagi aux préoccupations soulevées en confirmant avoir ouvert une enquête.

« Après le match à Napier, les Drua nous ont fait part de leurs préoccupations, et nous avons examiné la situation », a-t-il déclaré dans la presse australienne. « Nous avons mené une analyse approfondie et, comme indiqué dans notre communiqué, certains problèmes ont été identifiés. Nous avons échangé avec les parties concernées et allons renforcer nos procédures là où c’est nécessaire. »

Il a toutefois minimisé l’incident : « Il n’y a rien de préoccupant et nous sommes confiants que ce genre de problèmes ne se reproduira pas. »

Interrogé sur d’éventuelles responsabilités, Mesley a précisé que le Super Rugby Pacific ne communiquerait pas davantage sur le sujet au-delà de sa déclaration officielle.

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)
