L’ancien international anglais Nick Abendanon poursuit l’aventure au Pays basque : Bayonne vient de prolonger l’ancien arrière pour deux saisons de plus, afin qu’il continue d’occuper les fonctions d’entraîneur de la défense et des skills.

À 39 ans, le Sud-Africain de naissance – deux sélections avec l’Angleterre en 2007, à la veille de la Coupe du Monde de Rugby – est désormais lié à l’Aviron Bayonnais jusqu’à la fin de la saison 2027/28.

England full-back Nick Abendanon earns new deal” data-state=”closed”>Tombé dans le coaching en 2021

Après avoir rangé les crampons, Abendanon a basculé dans le coaching en 2021, au terme d’une carrière marquée par son expérience à Bath, Clermont et Vannes, et par une distinction de Joueur européen de l’année en 2015. Passé par deux saisons dans le staff de Vannes, il avait rejoint Bayonne avant l’exercice 2023/24, dans la continuité de cette montée en responsabilités.

Son nom a récemment circulé du côté de Brive, mais il a finalement choisi la stabilité en prolongeant avec le club basque, englué dans la zone basse du Top 14. Après 17 matchs, Bayonne affiche huit victoires, pointe à la 12e place et traîne une différence de points négative à trois chiffres (-105).

Saffa schools' star Josh Neill: 'End goal' is to become Ireland international

Don’t blame him, he is an opportunist and this is an opportunity. I blame Ireland for buying people to represent them. It just makes the jersey cheap… they treat their first world country as a club and that is sad to see from the outside. But each to their own..

I would be embarrassed if I was Irish… in the same way that I would be embarrassed if Telea plays for the Boks. Just because someone qualifies doesn’t mean it is right

Saffa schools' star Josh Neill: 'End goal' is to become Ireland international

I used to watch a lot of international rugby. I still love the game but it has become so farcical that I'm definitely put off from being so invested in it anymore. Ireland, Wales and Scotland specially have

reduced international rugby to a farce by targeting players from everywhere looking for the slightest ancestral link or capping them on residency. McBeth, Schoeman, Dempsey, Burke, Jordan, Tuipulotu, Steyn, van der Merwe, Griffin, Plumtree, Murray, Bealham, Hansen, Gibson-Park, Lowe, Aki… the list goes on. It's incredibly unfair and makes a mockery of the whole concept of international rugby.

Yes yes yes Nick. Like I said months ago. France go to the World Cup favourites (from the North) to win it.

Interestingly, I could easily see a Land Rover franchised team being based in Birmingham, which would naturally build on their investments in rugby and wider community investment.

The expense is having to build a stadium (£50-100m) and then maximise it’s use, where the dual use business models of football & rugby really comes together.

Why it's time to stop using Lions rigours as an excuse for French supremacy

Yeah, poor excuse. Top14 is far more difficult than Premiership, and longer too. + France also had international matchs, just like the Lions. From what I saw (Lions where on french channel “L’Équipe”) it wasn’t really difficult matchs. Lot of matchs against clubs without their internationals players. 1 loss and 2 wins against Australia, and I remember perfectly that one of these wins was clearly stolen by the ref (REALLY) litigious decision. The thing was, the referee focused on a potentially dangerous play before saying there was nothing there (which was debatable, but legal, being left to the referee's discretion). Whereas the real foul was a Lion diving on its support during the same play, which strangely went unnoticed.

So, when you should have lost even that Lion tour, just stay quiet about it. Do not use that to pretend the one in front of you can do better because of it. What if us, french, were complaining EVERY YEAR about how tired we are, playing more in top14 than the others ? We would look like idiots, and rightly so. So, instead of whining, we just use other players than our premium ones. It's the price of getting the richest, most financially stable, and most difficult championship in the world (yep, i’m a patriot, try to change my mind on this xD)

Drua vs Hurricanes takes: The classic hybrid players, Aumua's Achilles heel

Harkin looks “next level”. Demeanor, skills and courage with good option taking, he shows how the NZ system can allow those not on “pathways” to still break through on their own merits. He’s a keeper.

No love lost as Crusaders overcome Chiefs in breathless Hamilton thriller

Yep - plenty of action and elevated rivalry in some of the exchanges with these two teams. Missed tackles could be reduced but there was a lot of ball movement and continuity that contributed to that as well. SRP looks exciting this year with the Aussie teams off to a good start and reaping the benefit of their player development. Rugby was the winner.

They were clearly forcing the trait, but I think the plan was to raise the alarm to say this is going the wrong direction and we don’t want those new rules implemented globally.

They want a change only because it will give them an advantage on other nations. So simple : your not the best in a part of the game ? Just supress/reduce that part so you can get a more easy win. It’s pathetic, but nothing new here. As a french, it pains me to admit that, but true rules of rugby are the british ones, they litteraly created that sport. Why different rules in some parts of the world ? It’s so stupid…
