By Omnisport
Gael Fickou ran in two tries for Stade Francais as they bounced back from their loss to Clermont Auvergne by beating Toulon 37-10 in the Top 14.

France international centre Fickou moved to the capital ahead of this campaign after six years with Toulouse and he crossed in the 42-20 reverse to Clermont in the third round of games.
He claimed a first-half brace against Toulon on Sunday, while Laurent Panis and Hugh Pyle also went over in a comfortable Stade Francais victory.
In Sunday’s other game, La Rochelle became the latest club to inflict a defeat on Perpignan, who, like Grenoble, are still winless in this year’s competition.
La Rochelle only held a 10-3 advantage at the interval, but three of their five tries came in the final 11 minutes as they also sealed a 37-10 success.

I'm sure that I'd hate him if I didn't support the Hurricanes and All Blacks but as it is I love that man to death.
Go to commentsThe hard work and commitment may not have led to an AB jersey. There's a big queue in his position all fighting for the same thing. However it has led to a whole new set of experiences including travel, history, cultures he may never otherwise have been exposed to. And all of that while still being able to ply his trade he loves and get paid for it! How could anyone say anything other than "Go with my blessing! You deserve it."
