Section Paloise : un avant polyvalent en renfort

In 2023 the 6N teams played games for 4 consecutive weeks leading up the start of the world cup as "warm up games". So come the World Cup QF they had already played for 9 consecutive weeks. Is it any wonder they can't find the last point or last play they need? They wait until the WC every four years to design a schedule that means they will be more fatigued than RC teams.

By contrast NZ played 5 games in the 12 months leading up the World Cup, only 2 as warm up games, SA played 6 in 12 months leading up also with 2 warm up games.

He should probably do the exact opposite of whatever his training programme says and just see how that goes. He literally can't string more than two games together.

ABs persisting with a 5-3 bench split with so much versatility in the backline is such a waste. Virtually the whole backline can cover 1 other position, some can cover 3.

Although the sheer vast number of comments on this article is mind blowing!!

All the work they continue to do to engineer D4 superiority over the other provinces continues to pay off well.

Until Leinster blows yet another series of finals at the end of every season
