Tournoi des Six Nations : les Bleues et le plafond de verre à briser

Par AFP
Comme depuis plusieurs années, les Françaises courent après les Anglaises, qui dominent le Tournoi des Six Nations depuis 2019.

En quête de confiance après une année 2024 en dents de scie, les Bleues entament samedi leur Tournoi des Six Nations avec comme objectif de se relancer à quelques mois du Mondial féminin en Angleterre, qui sera une nouvelle fois large favorite du Tournoi.

Dans la lignée d’une nouvelle désillusion l’an passé à Bordeaux, où les joueuses des co-sélectionneurs David Ortiz et Gaëlle Mignot ont largement été dominées par des Anglaises impitoyables (42-21) lors de la ‘finale’ pour le Tournoi, les Françaises ont fini l’année 2024 loin des standards d’une équipe prétendant au sacre mondial.

« On est sorties plutôt mitigées de ce Women XV », reconnaît la centre des Bleues Gabrielle Vernier, à propos de la compétition de l’automne dernier, avec une seule victoire contre les États-Unis (22-14) et deux lourdes défaites contre le Canada (46-24) et la Nouvelle-Zélande (39-14).

« On avait des périodes de match où on produisait beaucoup de jeu, où on était hyper dangereuses pour l’adversaire et après on se prenait la marée », regrette Vernier (27 ans, 49 sélections), une des cadres d’un groupe rajeuni.

Dans un rugby féminin à deux vitesses, les Bleues, éliminées en demi-finale du dernier Mondial après un combat héroïque contre les Black Ferns néo-zélandaises (25-24), semblent avoir de plus en plus de mal à rivaliser avec les meilleures (Angleterre, Nouvelle-Zélande), et voient se rapprocher des équipes qui poussent (Canada, Irlande…).

Vers une nouvelle ‘finale’ contre les Anglaises, cette fois à Twickenham ?

Ce Tournoi a donc pour but de servir de répétition générale en vue du Mondial féminin (22 août – 27 septembre). « Toutes les joueuses qui sont dans le groupe élargi ont la Coupe du Monde dans le coin de la tête », admet la troisième ligne Teani Feleu, petite sœur de Manae, co-capitaine avec Marine Ménager.

Reste à ne pas tomber dans le piège d’un Tournoi difficile, avec trois déplacements : en Irlande, en Italie et surtout en Angleterre.

« Il faudra imposer notre jeu, montrer une bonne image de nous-mêmes, une image différente du WXV pour prouver qu’on a changé, qu’on a évolué entre-temps », espère Teani Feleu, pour qui « l’objectif final reste le même, c’est de gagner le Tournoi ».

Un obstacle de taille se dressera comme chaque année sur la route du titre : les Anglaises, sextuples tenantes du titre avec six Grands Chelems d’affilée, et que les Bleues n’ont pas battues depuis 2018.

« Il y a l’envie d’essayer de briser le plafond de verre », assure la talonneuse Agathe Sochat.

Mais les Red Roses, avec dans leurs rangs des joueuses expérimentées qui visent une cinquième participation au Mondial, ou l’arrière Ellie Kildunne, élue meilleure joueuse du monde en novembre dernier, restent sur une série de 20 victoires d’affilée depuis leur défaite en finale du Mondial en 2022 contre la Nouvelle-Zélande.

Si les Bleues ne trébuchent pas avant, elles pourraient comme en 2023 jouer le titre dans le stade mythique de Twickenham devant des dizaines de milliers de spectateurs, un avant-goût du tournoi mondial à venir.

« C’est hyper bien pour nous, pour le rugby féminin », se réjouit d’avance Vernier. « Si ça peut lancer la vente d’encore plus de tickets pour la Coupe du Monde avec un beau spectacle à Twickenham et une victoire française, ça serait génial ».

Montpellier vs Perpignan | Live & Latest Rugby Union Scores & Results | RugbyPass

In France, we deeply value financial security and independence. After my divorce, my life took a chaotic turn, and amidst all the turmoil, I misplaced the backup phrase for my Bitcoin wallet, which held a significant amount, $220,000. I was already grappling with emotional challenges, and the thought of losing my Bitcoin felt like the final blow.

In moments like these, I couldn't help but think of the French saying, “Il ne faut jamais dire jamais,” which means “Never say never.” Little did I know that this would become a mantra for my recovery journey. I spent days searching for that elusive phrase, going through old documents and turning my apartment upside down, but it was as if the universe had conspired against me—the backup was simply gone.

Feeling desperate and overwhelmed, I confided in a friend who works in the cryptocurrency space. He recommended Hack Buster Recovery, mentioning that they had helped many French investors in similar situations. Skeptical but out of options, I decided to reach out.

From the moment I contacted Hack Buster Recovery, I was struck by their understanding of my situation. They were professional and compassionate, reassuring me that I wasn’t alone in this struggle. Their team quickly got to work, explaining the recovery process in a way that put my mind at ease. It was clear they had dealt with cases like mine before, and their expertise gave me a flicker of hope.

Within just a few days, I received the news that would change everything: they had successfully recovered my Bitcoin! The relief I felt was indescribable. It was as if a heavy weight had been lifted off my shoulders, and I could finally breathe again. In such a tough time in my life, Hack Buster Recovery became a beacon of hope.

If you find yourself in a similar predicament, I wholeheartedly recommend Hack Buster Recovery. Their dedication, professionalism, and ability to deliver results are remarkable. They will lift the burden off your shoulders, just as they did for me. In moments of chaos, trust me when I say that Hack Buster Recovery can be the difference between despair and hope. Thanks to them, I can now move forward with my life and focus on rebuilding my financial security.

'He has found that sweet spot': Hurricanes extend Ngane Punivai

Life can unravel in an instant. For me, that moment came when deceitful cryptocurrency brokers vanished with £40,000 of my savings, a devastating blow that left me paralyzed by shame and despair. The aftermath was a fog of sleepless nights, self-doubt, and a crushing sense of betrayal. I questioned every choice, wondering how I’d fallen for such a scheme. Hope felt like a luxury I no longer deserved. Then, Tech Cyber Force Recovery emerged like a compass in a storm. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out, half-expecting another dead end. What I found, however, was a team that radiated both expertise and empathy. From our first conversation, they treated my crisis not as a case file, but as a human tragedy. Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion, a rare combination in the often impersonal world of finance.

What happened next defied logic. Within 72 hours of sharing my story, they traced the labyrinth of blockchain transactions, outmaneuvering the scammers with surgical precision. When their email arrived, “Funds recovered, secure and intact,” I wept. It wasn’t just the money; it was the validation that justice could prevail. Tech Cyber Force Recovery didn’t just restore my finances, they resurrected my dignity. But their impact ran deeper. They demystified the recovery process, educating me without judgment. Their transparency became a lifeline, transforming my fear into understanding. Where I saw chaos, they saw patterns; where I felt powerless, they instilled agency. Today, I’m rebuilding not just my savings, but my trust in humanity. Tech Cyber Force Recovery taught me that vulnerability isn’t weakness, and that seeking help is an act of courage. To those still trapped in the aftermath of fraud: miracles exist. They wear no capes, but they wield algorithms and integrity like superheroes. To the extraordinary Tech Cyber Force Recovery team, your work is more than technical prowess. It’s alchemy, turning despair into resilience. You gave me more than my funds; you gave me my future. May your light guide countless others through their darkest nights. From the depths of my heart: Thank you.
