RWC 2023 : trois équipes attendues pour s’acclimater en Bourgogne

Le directeur du Creps de la région Bourgogne-Franche-Comté l’assure dans les colonnes du Bien Public ce samedi 5 août : « trois équipes (participant à la Coupe du Monde de Rugby 2023, ndlr) viendront un peu en amont pour s’acclimater au fuseau horaire ».

Non retenue parmi les camps de base des équipes durant la compétition qui aura lieu du 8 septembre au 28 octobre, la région avait pourtant fait du lobbying dès le début de l’année auprès des organisateurs pour créer « un grand évènement autour du rugby ».

L’ambition était notamment de pouvoir organiser un match amical en amont du tournoi majeur. Un souhait qui ne sera finalement pas réalisé.

« Contrairement à ce que nous pensions il y a quelques mois, les sélections nationales rejoindront leur camp de base très tardivement avant le début de la compétition, soit début septembre », confirme Pascal Bonnetain, le directeur du Creps de la région Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.

« Dès lors, c’était devenu impossible d’organiser un match amical dans cette configuration. »

Regarding Henry: Why Australian rugby has a new centre of attention

Nice one Nick. I have always been someone who believes in players needing to do their role, and that teams should be better than the sum of their parts. Suaalii may be a lab-born, drago like specimen and win every NFL-combine like test on the training pitch, but the fact is he hasn’t been doing his core role and the team does better at the moment without him. He doesn’t link with his team well in defense and often leave gaps even if people say ‘he is a physical league player’. In attack, he often hesitates and picks the wrong line on running, and wrong option when passing. This is why I have called for flook in the past and now henry. Not because they are a better athlete, but because they do their core job and make the team look better.

If you go back to the 1st game vs japan the WBs played the same backline moves with suaalii and I think the comparisons are instructive with henry. Comparison 1: the short ball. When suaalii ran the short line, he ended up running at the same hole as hunter (who drew 2 defenders) and crowded the space rather than running into the hole one man wider. Hunter luckily hit the right option out the back and Wright ended up scoring in the far corner. Herny on the other hand hit the right gap and would’ve setup a great try if not for the forward pass. Comparison 2: bouncing out and hitting the wing. Compare henry in your 3rd clip hitting jorgo when on the outs line and needing to link with his winger - on the chest perfect pass. Suaalii last week got caught between taking contact and offloading, hitting potter on the wing, and canham who switched back and the ball ended up going to absolutely no one. Luckily potter picked it up and sliced through a gap to score but suaalii definitely didn’t execute.
