L’ailier de Bordeaux-Bègles, Damian Penaud, est devenu le seul meilleur marqueur d’essais de l’histoire du XV de France, devant la légende Serge Blanco (38), en inscrivant son 39e essai sous le maillot bleu samedi soir, face aux doubles champions du monde sud-africains, au Stade de France.

Âgé de 29 ans, l’ancien joueur de Clermont avait égalé le record de l’arrière du Biarritz Olympique lors du dernier Tournoi des Six Nations, en marquant contre l’Irlande à Dublin. Il l’a définitivement dépassé grâce à un essai inscrit dès la 4e minute, à la suite d’un jeu au pied en profondeur signé Ramos.

Damian Penaud détient également le record du nombre d’essais marqués en une saison de Champions Cup, avec 14 réalisations en 2024-2025, dont un sextuplé mémorable contre les Sharks sud-africains, au cours d’une saison conclue par le sacre européen de l’UBB.

Fils d’Alain Penaud, ancien ouvreur de Brive et du XV de France, il a inscrit 34 essais en Coupe d’Europe sous les couleurs de Clermont puis de Bordeaux-Bègles, ainsi que 68 essais en Top 14 avec ces deux clubs.

En comptant aussi ses deux essais sous le maillot des Barbarians, Damian Penaud a marqué au total 143 essais depuis le début de sa carrière professionnelle.

It'll take a brave individual to coach these All Blacks

This reminds of the Wallabies and the road down for them. This firing was harsh, rash and not thought through. Just like NZRU jumped the gun with Foster, even announcing his replacement before the biggest tournament in rugby, the World Cup. There is a lot of speculation as to why he was fired or let go, none substantiated facts. For those who go through life with open eyes and follow the logical path, it will be clear from where the rot comes from. The NZRU board itself. The Union itself. Players and coaches change, but results don't. From the man in charge down is rotten. The AB's is still 2nd in the rankings list, still manage to beat the best teams. Maybe not as flashy as in the past, but definitely trending upwards. All of that momentum is now lost…AGAIN. Same mistakes from the board. The NZRU is busy making the AB's a joke now. The fans follow like blind bats and gobble up all the excuses for a decade now. The media report what the board wants people to know, not the facts. They are not very transparent. After Super Rugby, the Wallabies crashed and became almost none existent, a shadow of its former self, running through coaches and players. The same is starting to happen to the AB's. NZRU destroy everything they touch. When will the public address the real problem at hand? When the AB's are as bad as Wales and the Wallabies? Just when the AB's start to trend upwards, they shoot themselves in the foot once again. Firing a coach, before the biggest series NZ have had in many many years, the biggest rivalry. Before the Nation's Cup and the WC. 3 of arguably the biggest competitions in world rugby right now for 2026 and 2027. Fans can drop all expectations for winning any of the 3 competitions. New coach, new strategies, new everything. It takes time to settle a group of players. Even if the same crop of players gets used(which aren't good enough), it won't amount to sudden magical success. Winning percentages isn't everything, but filling the trophy cabinet is. Sack the board, not the coaches. The players and fans also need to realise that.
