Transferts : cinq arrivées officialisées à Toulon

Le troisième ligne anglais Zach Mercer et le centre italien Juan Ignacio Brex se sont engagés avec le Rugby Club Toulonnais en vue de la saison prochaine, a annoncé son président Bernard Lemaître dans une interview accordée à Var Matin vendredi.

Mercer (27 ans) va faire son retour en France après avoir déjà évolué à Montpellier (2021-2023), où il avait été désigné meilleur joueur du Top 14 en 2022, lorsque le MHR avait décroché le Bouclier de Brennus.

Il avait rejoint Gloucester en 2023 avec comme ambition de porter de nouveau le maillot de l’Angleterre. Un objectif qu’il n’a pas atteint en partie à cause d’une longue blessure à un genou et de la forte concurrence à son poste.

Le N.8 ne sera pas le seul international à rejoindre la Rade cet été puisque l’Italien Juan Ignacio Brex (46 sélections) va également débarquer en provenance du Benetton Trévise, comme annoncé en début d’année.

Le RCT aimerait faire venir Menoncello

« C’est un des leaders du Benetton et de l’équipe d’Italie, c’est un travailleur, très humble, qui est parfait au niveau des qualités humaines », a expliqué l’entraîneur des avants toulonnais Sergio Parisse.

Le président du RC Toulon a par ailleurs officialisé auprès de Var Matin les arrivées de l’arrière Mathis Ferté (21 ans) en provenance de Brive, du demi de mêlée Clovis Le Bail (29 ans, Racing 92) et du demi d’ouverture Mateo Garcia (22 ans, Bordeaux-Bègles), en plus de celle du troisième ligne Patrick Tuifua, déjà officielle depuis début avril.

Bernard Lemaître a aussi affirmé que le RCT « s’intéressait beaucoup » à l’autre centre international italien Tommaso Menoncello (22 ans, 24 sélections), meilleur joueur du Tournoi des Six Nations 2024.

Pat Lam blasts 'archaic' process that lost the All Blacks Tony Brown

Now you are just being a woke, jealous fool. With the way things are run in NZ, no wonder he couldn't make a success there. Now that he is out shining any other New Zealanders, including their star players, now he is bitter and resentful and all sorts of hate speeches against him. That is what the fans like you do. Those in NZ who does have enough sense not to let pride cloud their vision, is all saying the same thing. NZ needs TB. Razor was made out to be a rugby coaching God by the fans, so much so that Foz was treated like the worst piece of shitte. Especially after the Twickenham disaster right before the WC. Ad then he nearly won the WC too with 14 players. As a Saffa the way he handled the media and the pressure leading up to the WC, was just extraordinary and I have gained a lot of respect for that man. Now your so called rugby coaching God managed to lose by an even bigger margin, IN NZ. All Razor does is overplay his players and he will never get the best out of those players, and let's face it, the current crop is good enough to be the best. However, they need an coach they can believe in completely. I don't think the players have bought into his coaching gig. TB was lucky to shake the dust of his boots when he left NZ, because only when he did that, did his career go from strength to strength. He got a WC medal to his name. Might get another if the Boks can keep up the good work. New exciting young talent is set to join soon after the WC as dangerous as SFM and Kolbe. Trust me, he doesn't want the AB's job. He is very happy in SA with the Boks. We score, you lose a great coach. We know quality when we see it, we don't chuck it in the bin like NZRU likes to do. Your coaching God is hanging on by a thread to keep his job🤣🤣🤣🤣

Simplify. Stop trying to be the smartest in the room. That’s been taken.

Great article John,

Appreciate optimism you provide. Will be delighted if Wallabies simply make semis of our home WRC, and what your article brings for me, is that is very much doable.

Pat Lam blasts 'archaic' process that lost the All Blacks Tony Brown

Tony Brown is better off at the Boks. And in the long run, if NZ Rugby can get their house in order enough for their to be good enough reason for him getting into the AB setup, the ABs will better for it.

The last four years and next two years buggering around in the wilderness with NZRU would be a waste of his talents and valuable career years and experience actually achieving results.

Tony is already revered by the SA fans. His influence is as integral as Rassie’s in the team. He may be from NZ, but his blood is green. Long may he stay with the Boks, and with Rassie signing to 2031, it's more than likely that Tony will also resign when his contract is up. What coach wouldn't? The talent he get to work with, the coaching setup that is shared and not a dictatorship, the freedom to express himself. He got everything he wants. I can't see him leaving the Bok setup soon.

Only by ranking. Don’t forget a lot of work was done prior to Razor taking over for them to be there now. It’s highly debatable that the All Blacks are the second best side in the world at the moment, particularly with the way they were turned over by England.

That is a list with serious experience and rich form that is missing from this crew, who will undertake the cathartic task of reviewing what was ultimately a disappointing 2025 season ahead of the inaugural Nations Championship Cup games in July.

You hope at least that next year (World Cup year) overseas Wallaby players will be interested enough to tell their clubs they are attending camp.

Springboks rule the skies as access law leads to more kicking

Well, a couple of things. NZRU is not an entity this topic relates to, and the only national team I notice a problem with attackers “getting upto speed” is the All Blacks, I’d think every other team doesn’t have so much of a problem. That is also reflected at the level below.

So while I think the change would be good for a country like New Zealand, and those consequences you list aren’t favorable, no, I don’t think you interpretation makes more sense than mine.

That doesn't sound bitter. Go and watch that episode. The truth always hurt. He is saying what others are too scared to. How many times on this same forum have NZ fans complained about exactly that? Numerous times. You are right, the way they handled Foz, there couldn't be any other outcome, but then, the NZRU have proven time and time again that they are useless

What are you talking about HH? Do you think I should be more critical of Pat Lam not being across the situation instead of making light excuses for him?

Personally I don’t blame him for not being aware of the facts given the current media, so thats going to be the tone I take reporting on it.

You have NEVER been involved with NZRU, yet you claim to know better than those who were and knows galaxies more than you. Maybe you should be the one to shut up.
