Fritz Lee : « J’ai hâte de rentrer en France pour retrouver les enfants »

Fritz Lee hopital

Le capitaine clermontois Fritz Lee, sorti sur civière à l’heure de jeu lors du match de Champions Cup contre Northampton vendredi, a été victime d’un une double fracture tibia-péroné. L’ASM a confirmé que le troisième ligne international samoan « a été opéré en fin d’après-midi [samedi, NDLR] à Northampton », au lendemain de la défaite en huitièmes de finale de la Champions Cup en Angleterre (46-24).

« L’opération s’est bien passée. La fracture a été réduite avec en plus une pose de matériel chirurgical (une plaque avec des vis) afin de favoriser une bonne cicatrisation et régénération osseuse. Il en a désormais pour quelques mois de rééducation », a précisé, cité dans le communiqué, le médecin du club qui reste auprès du joueur jusqu’à son retour en Auvergne « lundi matin ».

Le joueur lui-même a donné des nouvelles rassurantes sur son état de santé. « Je tiens d’abord à remercier Dieu pour sa protection, ainsi que toutes les personnes qui m’ont soutenu pendant cette période difficile », a-t-il confié.

« Mon opération s’est bien passée et je suis extrêmement reconnaissant envers l’équipe du @nhsengland ici à Northampton pour avoir pris soin de moi, ainsi qu’au doc de @asm_rugby_officiel qui est resté à mes côtés pour s’assurer que je bénéficie des meilleurs soins et équipements disponibles.

« À mes proches, ma famille, mes amis, et à tous ceux qui m’ont envoyé un message ou pris de mes nouvelles : je vous suis profondément reconnaissant pour votre soutien. J’ai maintenant hâte de rentrer en France pour retrouver @amyrconnell et les enfants.

« Merci à @laufaingaa__ et Mumsy pour la livraison de KFC. À l’uso @aniseko faafetai mo le mafutaga uso. Prions pour un rétablissement rapide — il reste encore un peu de force dans ces vieux os. »

Lee, 36 ans, devrait donc ne plus jamais porter les couleurs de Clermont. Arrivé au club en 2013, il avait annoncé en janvier qu’il allait quitter l’ASM à la fin de la saison, le club n’ayant pas souhaité prolonger son contrat.

Late Makazole Mapimpi try earns the Sharks win away to Edinburgh

Jake White described this as the strongest Sharks lineup ever. There is no doubt that it is at least an impressive roster. They did win, which is obviously an achievement against a good Edinburgh side. However …


For much of the first half Edinburgh seemed easily able to create 2 on 1 opportunities on both wings, with the defensive wingers biting in on the inside runner and cover defence being AWOL. Conversely the Sharks showed little ability to get behind the Edinburgh defensive line, with the sole exception of a nicely-exploited Am mismatch against a second row (which led to the Fassi try).


In general the Sharks, with their full complement of Bok firepower, do not look that dangerous in attack, and while tackling was good on the whole and goal line defence was impressive at times, they were exhibiting surprising breakdowns in open play defensive structures.


Also, the Sharks continue to be inaccurate, with material impact on the scoreboard. Missing two very kickable penalties is not the way to be the best. It looked to me like the Sharks contestable kicks were not well enough executed, and were too hard to recover.


Not sure what the running attack was trying to do, but my guess is that they were trying to pull off a Harlequins-style bash-and-offload game off of 12 (Esterhuizen). That’s not a terrible idea with the personnel available, but it would require creativity and a precision on second phase that was not in evidence.


Lastly, you have to have better discipline. It’s great that the team can cope with a 13 vs 14 period (of almost 10 minutes), but smart teams a avoid cards.


Having said that it was great to see the win. I thought that Edinburgh were cynical and niggly. Always hanging around on the wrong side of the breakdown, lots of intentional obstruction, illegal dummying at the base of the ruck, etc. They played a dirty game and the ref tolerated it. Always good to see that not succeed.


Overall the “best Sharks lineup ever” scraped the win, but under-performed their Bok-laden potential. Again.

Back in January, I got caught up in a cryptocurrency scam that really turned my life upside down. I invested a jaw-dropping $214,000 in BNB on what I thought was a legitimate crypto site. For a while, everything seemed to be going smoothly, and I was excited about the returns I was expecting. But then, when I tried to withdraw my profits, everything fell apart. The scammers froze my account and demanded more money, claiming I had breached some sort of agreement. I was completely devastated and felt trapped in a nightmare. It got so overwhelming that I started having dark thoughts about ending it all. Thankfully, my family noticed I was struggling and stepped in when I finally opened up about what was happening. During one of our talks, my niece mentioned a group called (Trust Geeks Hack Expert). She had heard they helped people recover their stolen cryptocurrencies, and I was intrigued. I thought, “Could this be my saving grace?” So, I decided to reach out to them and explain my situation in detail. To my surprise, (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) was incredibly responsive and compassionate. They reassured me that they had dealt with cases like mine before and would do everything they could to help. I was a bit skeptical, but I was also desperate for a solution. Amazingly, within about three days if I remember correctly they managed to recover the entire $214,000 that I had lost! I was in shock. It felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. If you’re reading this and you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, I can’t recommend (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) enough. They are truly exceptional at what they do. Reach out for help, and don’t hesitate to contact them. (Trust Geeks Hack Expert)
