Rodrigo Bruni prolonge à Bayonne

L’Aviron Bayonnais a annoncé la prolongation de contrat de son troisième ligne Rodrigo Bruni. L’Argentin, arrivé sur la côte basque en 2023, est désormais lié avec le club jusqu’au terme de la saison 2026-2027.

Bruni, international argentin à 26 reprises, est devenu un élément important de l’équipe dirigée par Grégory Patat. Le manager bayonnais l’a aligné 18 fois cette saison, à chaque fois dans l’équipe de départ. Bruni a également inscrit sept essais.

Aussi à l’aise sur le flanc de la 3e ligne qu’en N.8, Bruni est un joueur à maturation lente. À 25 ans, il jouait encore pour le club de San Luis, en Argentine, dans le championnat semi-professionnel de la province de Buenos Aires.

Il a fait partie de l’éphémère franchise des Jaguares en Super Rugby. Mais sa carrière a véritablement décollé quand il a rejoint Vannes durant l’hiver 2020-2021. Après un an et demi de Pro D2 avec le club breton, il signe à Brive.

Il ne dispute toutefois que sept matchs sous le maillot corrézien, à cause notamment de sa participation au Rugby Championship avec les Pumas.

La descente du CAB en Pro D2 à la fin de la saison 2022-2023 provoque son départ, et c’est Bayonne qui l’a récupéré.

The coaching conundrum part one: Is there a crisis Down Under?

Sreasons greetings Nick

After the November internationals, I was hoping there would be a review into how Australia coaches defence across the board, with the upshot being a move to a much more aggressive defensive approach being implemented across the board from Wallabies level to age group teams and the 4 super rugby sides.

Boks need more depth: 5 things on South Africa's Christmas wishlist

DDA looked less dominant this year than he has done previously, and will be 35 at the RWC. Esterhuizen only started 3 games this season (against Wales, Italy, and in the losing effort against Australia). If, at 31, he isn’t viewed by Rassie as a starting 12, I doubt he will be at 33.

Yeah depth at 12 is likely to be a bit of a problem! Still think backrow is the bigger problem.

Would LOVE to see Paul de Villiers given a chance at 6 in 2026. He’s been outstanding. Plus after Kolisi and Van Staden, who else is there?

Looking forward to seeing Elrigh Louw back, hopefully at 7! Great replacement for PSDT.

The Boks have DDA and Esterhuizen at 12. But 2026 is the year they need to start playing Ethan Hooker at 12. It’s his 1st choice position too.

The coaching conundrum part one: Is there a crisis Down Under?

He is certainly no Skelton. His dimensions are similar to Eben at 204 cm / 120kg v 203 cm / 122kg. Though I take your point - the Boks churn out monsters in huge numbers. But we do have our own collection of monsters Tamaiti at 196 cm / 144 kg (combined 340) and Tosi at 193 / 140 kg (333) are as big as the biggest Bok monsters eg Snyder is 207cm / 130kg (337). And the point of having Vaa’i or Holland or Barrett at 4, 5 and or 6 and combined with others like Tuipulotu

and Parker - is that in “physics” theory at least their combined power matches that of the Boks - and provides the base for a rock solid scrum. And from memory, when Vaa’i or Holland were on the blindside, the NZ scrum did not go backwards.

The coaching conundrum part one: Is there a crisis Down Under?

Cannot disagree - but it is interesting to note in those games the Boks were materially bigger (@ 38 point weight and height diferential where as the ABs and Boks were about even at Eden Park) and the English 6-2 combination was a clear point of difference. I also think the Boks had a blinder.

And to your last point - isnt that weird? An AB pack of the present dimensions should be at least achieving parity with both the Boks and Poms. Your post England game article highlighted a potential problem

This is a huge piece of data NB! Thanks for sharing it. It absolutely confirms our intuitions about how Robertson is wanting to play the game. It is based on set piece dominance and hence the “powering” up of the forwards. The ABs midfield strategies are so muddled its no wonder the team struggles. Look forward to your post Christmas analysis re attack!!

With PMCD and I sorry.

New Zealand had more meters carried but England had more meters gained, so England had a much narrower margin between the two, or more specifically, because NZ had a much wider margin (gained only half or meters carried) that it proved England had a good rush D (the topic of discussion).

The coaching conundrum part one: Is there a crisis Down Under?

Thanks JW for clarifying your point and totally agree. The ABs are still trying to find their mojo” - that spark of power that binds and defines them. Man the Boks certainly found theirs in Wellington! But I think it cannot be far off for ABs - my comment about two coaches was a bit glib. The key point for me is that they need first a coach or coaches that can unlock that power and for me that starts at getting the set piece right and especially the scrum and second a coach that can simplify the game plans. I am fortified in this view by NBs comment that most of the ABs tries come from the scrum or lineout - this is the structured power game we have been seeing all year. But it cannot work while the scrum is backpeddling. That has to be fixed ASAP if Robertson is going to stick to this formula. I also think it is too late in the cycle to reverse course and revert to a game based on speed and continuity. The second is just as important - keep it simple! Complex movements that require 196 cm 144 kg props to run around like 95kg flankers is never going to work over a sustained period. The 2024 Blues showed what a powerful yet simple formula can do. The 2025 Blues, with Beauden at 10 tried to be more expansive / complicated - and struggled for most of the season.

I also think that the split bench needs to reflect the game they “want” to play not follow some rote formula. For example the ABs impact bench has the biggest front row in the World with two props 195cm / 140 kg plus. But that bulk cannot succeed without the right power based second row (7, 4, 5, 6). That bulk becomes a disadvantage if they don’t have a rock solid base behind them - as both Boks showed at Eden Park and the English in London. Fresh powerful legs need to come on with them - thats why we need a 6-2 bench. And teams with this split can have players focused only on 40 minutes max of super high intensity play. Hence Robertson needs to design his team to accord with these basic physics.

Yes agree - this AB’s performance in London was bewildering - it should have been their statement game - and it was - just the wrong statement.
