Madosh Tambwe devrait rester à l’UBB
L’ancien ailier des Bulls Madosh Tambwe devrait rester à l’Union Bordeaux-Bègles (UBB) malgré l’intérêt de plusieurs clubs comme Clermont, Toulon et La Rochelle, selon le Midi Olympique.

Laurent Marti, le président de l’UBB, se montre désormais favorable au maintien du joueur congolais dans les rangs de l’équipe, un changement notable par rapport aux positions antérieures, compte tenu de la profondeur de l’UBB au poste d’ailier – avec des joueurs tels que Louis Bielle-Biarrey, Damian Penaud, Pablo Uberti et la recrue Maël Moustin.
En effet, l’avenir de Madosh Tambwe à l’UBB semblait incertain, surtout avec l’arrivée potentielle du talent prometteur d’Oyonnax, Enzo Reybier. Le club a d’abord semblé réticent à renouveler son contrat en raison de la réglementation JIFF favorisant les joueurs formés dans le pays. Mais les performances exceptionnelles de Tambwe, notamment contre Toulon lors d’une victoire historique de l’UBB à Mayol, ont fait pencher la balance en sa faveur.
Malgré l’attrait de jouer pour d’autres équipes leaders du Top 14 et après avoir considéré d’autres options en visitant par exemple les installations de La Rochelle et en ayant reçu une offre de Clermont, les perspectives de Tambwe de rester à l’UBB se sont considérablement améliorées. Ses récentes performances sur le terrain ont souligné sa valeur pour l’équipe à un moment où il semble prudent de renforcer le poste d’ailier.
Pour compliquer les choses, Tambwe a récemment été opéré d’une fracture de la main, ce qui l’empêchera de jouer pendant au moins trois semaines. Il manquera donc le prochain match contre Castres, ce qui constitue un coup dur pour l’équipe. Néanmoins, la décision de prolonger son contrat avec l’UBB malgré l’intérêt d’autres clubs et sa blessure actuelle reflète la haute estime dans laquelle il est tenu et l’importance stratégique de conserver les talents clés pour les échéances futures.

It’ll be very interesting to see how Razor’s AB’s handle the new England rush D. It’s basically the Bok recipe they copied, so if England goes well then we know most likely the Boks will go well too. If England cops a hiding then we’ll have to study and adapt.

2 Go to commentsSBW’s bro’town commentary and lazy default to hyperbole should be ignored, a technical analyst he is not. Sotutu is a good player when games get goosey loosey, high skill set that fans of Zinzan recall with starry eyes. But you need power and mongrel at no8 in the Test arena and Sotutu gets found wanting there, much like Akira Ioane. No8’s like Zinzan and Ardie have bucketloads of mongrel and power and tenacity which allow the skill sets to flourish.
11 Go to commentsAn inside pass to attacker on the angle can make a drift defence look lead footed. Relies on fleet footed forward/s to get across from the breakdown. An argument for the smaller faster 7 perhaps?
6 Go to commentsSensational tackle. The reds one was late and rightly penalised. The other two were simultaneous with the pass. If nitpicking TMOs can’t find fault there clearly isn’t any.
2 Go to commentsBrumbies fully deserved their win on the back of their physicality and desire to control the ball. Xavier Numia, Asafo Aumua and Tyrel Lomax should be the ABs starting front row when we start our test schedule. They have “come of age” and have bested all they have faced as well as been dominant with ball in hand in making the gainline. With De Groot, Tamaiti Williams and Fletcher Newell backed up by Taukei'aho and Cody Taylor there's not an international front row that can trouble us. Can't wait to face the Boks over there, won't be no one point game this time.
5 Go to commentsKinda strange that he wasn’t with a premiership team or a higher level of rugby? Start playing late or something? With that kind of size and athleticism you’d think someone would have picked him up?
2 Go to commentsShows how much attitude matters. Last week the Brumbies got done, this week they dominated the tournament leaders, who were likely thinking they could cruise to victory.
5 Go to commentsA Turtle has more pace and leg drive than Owen Franks, so it’s a good thing he only had to run 90 metres for that try.
2 Go to commentsOh Tamati Tua was in the vastly over-rated Leon MacDonalds Blues system? Well, no wonder he was wasted, much like Emoni Narawa and Jacob Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens under MacDonald. now look at them. Good thing Tua isn’t eligible, the Aussies latch on to any player who isn’t tied down.
5 Go to commentsMark Telea is a lot of things, but a defensive juggernaut has never been one of them. There will be far bigger tests in that regard for the youngster.

4 Go to commentsGood summation Ned. Agree the Canes were out-muscled for once (except at the scrum!) by a focused Brumbies outfit. Tua deserves consideration for higher honors after the way he humbled Jordie and the Canes defense. Thankfully, his lack of eligibility for Oz keeps him from Joe’s plans. While I also agree the injuries affected the Canes performance, some players seemed to lack focus and intensity for this match. Perhaps after the Blues demolished the Brumbies, they thought it was going to be easy? A good reminder that any slip up in preparation can have a big affect on the result. Brumbies deserved that win.

6 Go to comments‘UK athletes' have been in the NFL from the start.
2 Go to commentsIt’s going to be Scott Barrett. He’s the coaches mate and captain of a previously elite team. Ardie a great option but scooter has worked with the coach and Ardie still as big a leader as needed.
23 Go to commentsI commend Colin Scotts bio All Balls. He was the first Aussie to make it to NFL. But he was poached and did a full apprenticeship at the University of Hawaii. He was 130kgs surfed played 1st grade cricket etc. big guy by normal but not NFL standards and a top athlete. Even then the nfl were picking up Tongans and Samoans for their natural size and explosive power. They want explosive power not cardio from the big boys so a guy like Taniela Tupou would have been good if picked up young enough. He has fast twitch and they’d bulk the little lad up and give him something to do. soccer teams set up academies and look for Over Sara’s talent eg Messi was at Barcelona since a teenager and harry kewell went to Leeds as a teenager like 16 or something.
11 Go to commentsThe article alludes to the fact that this isn’t about picking a captain. But picking a great captain. So who would make for a great All Black captain - not just an obvious or safe shoo-in? I’m not sure Ardie’s the guy and Barret doesn’t stand out either.
23 Go to commentsI guess we may all agree on the fact, that the ABs and Boks are the two in contest for No 1 in rugby history (the triple-A sort of) …. the Wallabies, England and France are the next tier, with Ireland being the new kid in town (AA) …. in my view it makes little sense creating imaginary competitions (unless you have too much time to waste)
