Après la rencontre, l’entraîneur de Lyon Julien Puricelli a donné des nouvelles plutôt positives. « Ça va mieux… On n’en sait pas encore trop, mais on a reçu deux textos rassurants », a-t-il indiqué à la presse.

À la 32e minute de ce choc de prétendants à la qualification remporté par l’Aviron (28-14), Niniashvili et Iturria sont entrés en collision tête contre tête à la réception d’un ballon haut.

L’ailier géorgien, totalement sonné sur l’action, a été pris en charge par les secouristes sur le terrain avant d’être évacué sur civière après plusieurs minutes. À sa sortie, sous les applaudissements du public, le joueur du LOU a levé le pouce pour rassurer ses coéquipiers et sa famille. De son côté, Iturria est sorti du terrain le nez ensanglanté.

Niniashvili a quitté à la mi-temps l’enceinte de Jean-Dauger dans une ambulance qui s’est dirigée vers l’hôpital de la ville.

The times are changing, and some Six Nations teams may be left behind

The main problem is that on this thread we are trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. Rugby union developed as distinct from rugby league. The difference - rugby league opted for guaranteed tackle ball and continuous phase play. Rugby union was based on a stop start game with stanzas of flowing exciting moves by smaller faster players bookended by forward tussles for possession between bigger players. The obsession with continuous play has brought the hybrid (long before the current use) into play. Backs started to look more like forwards because they were expected to compete at the tackle and breakdowns completely different from what the original game looked like. Now here’s the dilemma. Scrum lineout ruck and maul, tackling kicking handling the ball. The seven pillars of rugby union. We want to retain our “World in Union” essence with the strong forward influence on the game but now we expect 125kg props to scrum like tractors and run around like scrum halves. And that in a nutshell is the problem. While you expect huge scrums and ball in play time to be both yardsticks, you are going to have to have big benches. You simply can’t have it both ways. And BTW talking about player safety when I was 19 I was playing at Stellenbosch at a then respectable (for a fly half) 160lbs against guys ( especially in Koshuis rugby) who were 100 lbs heavier than me - and I played 80 minutes. You just learned to stay out of their way. In Today’s game there is no such thing and not defending your channel is a cardinal sin no matter how unequal the task. When we hybridised with union in semi guaranteed tackle ball the writing was on the wall.
