L'essentiel de la 24e journée de Pro D2

Après une trêve bienvenue de deux semaines, les équipes ont entamé un nouveau bloc de cinq matchs décisifs.

Un finish renversant pour relancer Agen

(Match aller : Grenoble : 37 – 10 Agen) – Mené pendant près de 80 minutes, l’avant-dernier Agen a renversé le leader grenoblois au bout du suspense (le privant du bonus défensif), grâce à deux essais inscrits dans le temps additionnel par Ramoka (80e) puis Lombard-Buret (85e). Un scénario renversant (29-23), rendu possible après une belle entame de seconde période avec deux essais successifs de Etcheverry (Agen) gâchés par le carton jaune de Madigan sur une charge à l’épaule qui a fragilisé le SU. Mais l’ultime relance de 80 mètres initiée dans les 22 agenais pour une dernière cartouche a permis une victoire aussi folle qu’inattendue, qui pourrait peser lourd dans la course au maintien.

The times are changing, and some Six Nations teams may be left behind

The main problem is that on this thread we are trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. Rugby union developed as distinct from rugby league. The difference - rugby league opted for guaranteed tackle ball and continuous phase play. Rugby union was based on a stop start game with stanzas of flowing exciting moves by smaller faster players bookended by forward tussles for possession between bigger players. The obsession with continuous play has brought the hybrid (long before the current use) into play. Backs started to look more like forwards because they were expected to compete at the tackle and breakdowns completely different from what the original game looked like. Now here’s the dilemma. Scrum lineout ruck and maul, tackling kicking handling the ball. The seven pillars of rugby union. We want to retain our “World in Union” essence with the strong forward influence on the game but now we expect 125kg props to scrum like tractors and run around like scrum halves. And that in a nutshell is the problem. While you expect huge scrums and ball in play time to be both yardsticks, you are going to have to have big benches. You simply can’t have it both ways. And BTW talking about player safety when I was 19 I was playing at Stellenbosch at a then respectable (for a fly half) 160lbs against guys ( especially in Koshuis rugby) who were 100 lbs heavier than me - and I played 80 minutes. You just learned to stay out of their way. In Today’s game there is no such thing and not defending your channel is a cardinal sin no matter how unequal the task. When we hybridised with union in semi guaranteed tackle ball the writing was on the wall.
