Le centre néo-zélandais de Clermont George Moala sera absent plusieurs semaines en raison d’une blessure à une pommette, a annoncé mardi le club de Top 14 de rugby.

Le joueur, blessé le 14 décembre à la 17e minute du match Leinster-Clermont (15-7) de Coupe d’Europe, a passé divers examens à Dublin puis à Clermont-Ferrand. Il souffre de plusieurs fractures de l’os zygomatique et une intervention avec la pose d’une plaque est envisagée.

Une décision d’opérer ou non sera prise en fin de semaine, précise l’ASM.

RugbyPass' Top 50 Players for Super Rugby Pacific 2026: 50-41

Good to see those 2 Crusader/All Black props already listed in top 50. The powerhouse Tamaiti Williams and Fletcher Newell, the scrummaging maestro. Those two are weapons and give us a real advantage. Then you have a prop as good as George Bower coming on or starting if need be. George has proved his detractors wrong.

I think everyone has a eye on the Force this season, GTs. There’s a bit of expectation about them, I think..

Cheers KwAussie, it’s been a busy summer, but February is here and there’s rugby to watch everywhere!

Fair observations about the Tahs, I can imagine they’ll be wanting the start well to show that they can move on from the training stink and prove things are very different. But, as you allude, start a bit shaky, and the questions will keep being asked..

'That will come to bite England... but they hide him well'

Yes, Wilkinson was a different beast. Maybe Carter too? I’d agree that it’s probably more than 50% of 10s are / were less than satisfactory defenders. Ireland need to decide whether Prendergast has the potential to add more than he takes away. I don’t know at the moment. But I like his attacking style and mentality. I don’t think there's many players like him in rugby. Tackling is a repetitive skill, easy to learn. Prendergast has things that just can't be taught. Ireland should take their medicine this year with a view to gaining longer term benefits of wisdom and experience.

Forgot to include Farrell in the list of Wilko, Carter beasts!

'That will come to bite England... but they hide him well'

The conversation around Prendergast is overlooking the obvious issue. He has been a fantastic 10 when playing and winning behind a generally dominant pack and going forward. This has been the case since his schools days. He will get there but it’s a completely foreign skill that he has to learn from scratch. Given that - in terms of exposure and development - he's 5 or 6 years ahead of his predecessors and learning on the fly, I think he should continue to be selected. It’s the fastest way to gain the skills and ability to defend the channel. Failing that, maybe the scouts should be looking for similarly talented outhalves from mediocre teams with less dominance where they will have already had that “boot camp”?? That's tosh. A part of the blooding process is getting humbled by better teams. You can't skip that chapter. Forget the 6N title and create more battle-hardened, wiser players for the future and more important objectives

'That will come to bite England... but they hide him well'

Be interesting Max to look at 10’s down the ages and see how many were defenders of note, how many were poor in that area. Might be more than 50% poor ?

Great defender 10’s ? Wilkinson certainly near the top, if not the best…certainly the best I can recall in my time in the game.

“As for Prendgast. Well he’s tall and will bulk out. He is a lot better than last year. He actually made a couple of tackles against France.” He covers the field really well too, tf. Similar to Richie M for the AB’s. And yes, he will add kgs over the next few years. At 1.93m and 91 kgs now at 22, he will probably end up around 100 kgs.

'That will come to bite England... but they hide him well'

It is an age old solution, protect a player who is not a good defender. I watched Naas Botha play at various levels when living in Southern Africa, and he was never asked to be a front line tackler. And why would any coach use such a player in a position where he will be targeted. Totally agree, when Sam plays, take him away from the defensive line.

But imo, he should not be starting as Ireland’s 10 again this year. Let him settle, gain confidence. Crowley for me is the man for 10. But in the longer term it will be Prendergast who starts. That could/should be in maybe 2/3 years time. Both men are good 10’s, Ireland fortunate to have them.

Great to see you back Brett. I think there’s some big asks there and while the Tahs do look strong, that training fight demonstrates to me that they still have a culture issue and I think that’ll hold them back when things get tough like it has for the last few years.

Don’t what?

If they didn’t try to catch it that would by cynical play. My preference would be a free kick back at the ruck/kick.

Oh I feel you there, my team has had that sort of drab attack one out approach for near a decade. As I say, i was a bit of a fan of the contestable kicks in 2024 when it was introduced, but as sides have adapted to greater efficiency (relying less on their own skill in the air and more brute force) it’s got too negative for me and is ultimately flawed in the way it’s ruled a ‘contest’ (too onesided). It was so much fun though that we have been suggesting some ways to bring it back to that one on one contest, in Nicks article.

The article also describes how sides like Ireland have found more fun ways of breaking that one out style, and now France and South Africa are jumping on board with their own. Force the coachs to find another get rich quick stream and end theses lottories.

O’Gara was a terrible defender, so by that reckoning he is an O'Gara and Sexton didn't play international until he was 24, Prendergast is 22. He certainly didn’t “cost the victory” against France.
