Vainqueur du premier Grand Chelem français, Claude Lacaze s'en est allé

Il y a 1 heure

Claude Lacaze, 33 sélections avec le XV de France, avec qui il a signé le premier Grand Chelem de l’histoire du rugby français en 1968, est décédé samedi à Nice, à l’âge de 85 ans, comme révélé par son neveu.

Frère de Pierre « Papillon » Lacaze (7 sélections en bleu), Claude Lacaze, né à Pontacq dans les Pyrénées-Atlantiques en 1940, avait été capitaine du XV de France dans les années 1960, qu’il avait notamment dirigé lors d’une tournée mémorable en 1968 en Nouvelle-Zélande et avec qui il avait aussi décroché deux victoires dans le Tournoi en 1962 et 1967.

Premier arrière à avoir marqué un essai sous le maillot de l’équipe de France, il avait inventé la combinaison où le numéro 15 venait s’intercaler dans la ligne d’attaque entre les deux centres.

Arrière puis ouvreur du FC Lourdes, Claude Lacaze avait ensuite porté les couleurs du SC Angoulême puis du RRC Nice, avec les frères Herrero.

It’s nice to hear Justin Marshall say the quiet part out loud

Not by right no but that should certainly be the aspiration. But outside of pure win/ loss, the performances gave very little confidence that anything significantly or consistently better was on the horizon.

'We wanted Charlie Cale at Racing 92 - now he's a Wallaby World Cup star in waiting'

“One of the great advantages Cale will enjoy in 2026 and 2027 is, unlike Wilson, he plays with another of the Wallabies’ ‘indispensables’ Bobby Valetini, week in, week out at his club in Canberra.”

I know it's a Cale love fest here, but come on? Doesn't Wilson play with another indispensable Wallaby, McReight, week in week out as well? And the two of them have more of an attacking combo then the Brumbies pair.

All things being equal, yes. So long as lowering standards doesn't dilute the overall product.

Chiefs vs Crusaders takes: Kemara comes of age, Chiefs in shock

Kemara had a great game. His kick offs in particular were spot on especially with the height he was able to get and the Saders were always a chance to subsequently retrieve the ball. Contrast that with Jacomb’s efforts which 90% of the time went far too far to create any chance of getting it back.

The Chiefs also kicked the ball away far too often instead of trusting the forwards to retain possession. Although the result was a foregone conclusion at 70 minutes barring a miracle, the Chiefs showed exactly what they could do with the ball when they hung onto it. Almost another stunning length of the field effort in the last movement of the game!

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

I fully support players representing a country in which they were not born as long as they were raised there: O'Gara, McCarthy, Pocock, Moore, Heaslip, Cancelliere, Underhill and many more. The world is a big place and people are entitled to move and have multiple identities, I am ok with that. Where you were born should never limit your identity. What I am against is adult rugby players moving to a new country with the explicit goal of representing a country with which there's not much of a connection. It cheapens the game and artificially bolsters a few nations that can offer the right incentives

Hapless Leinster washed out on wet night in Cardiff

The author of this report cannot have been at the game. He wrote that Aled Davies’ try was converted, which, with Sheedy’s penalty, would have meant the score was 10-7, not 8-7. Perhaps PA should stop using AI and actually go to the game?

Mass wise they effectively matched the French with their remarkable two lock bench. Ruuan came on minute 10 and returned minute 40. Hybrid Esteheizen on minute 62 just after Bierrey carded. Two quick tries scored - game lost as French lost all cohesion - and that is where the game was lost.

Do England need to start worrying about their hooker depth ahead of the World Cup?

Borthwick hasn’t really built depth unless forced to by injuries. There are plenty players deserving of a chance but are overlooked notably Oghre and Blamire at hooker, Batley and Bamber at lock. There need to be more A team games to expose players but ultimately at test level they need to be exposed to credible opponents to determine if they can cut it or not. Unfortunately England are often very short sighted in this regard whereas others like SA, NZ, Australia, France, Ireland, and Scotland try to develop depth where possible

Looking on the bright side (unkown), at least Fin Smith or Caluori were not playing, so there may be a good chance they are in camp this week, which suggests they may get a chance for these next 2 games.

Six Nations half-term report: 'France lead the charge in struggle for the soul of rugby'

Well NB, I was a little surprised to see Cunningham South, Murley, Ojomoh, Atkinson, & Furbank playing in the PREM Cup matches this weekend (with Hendy on the bench).

Let’s look on the bright side, neither Fin Smith or Caluori were playing, so I can only assume they were probably training with the rest of the squad this week, so they might have a chance.

Six Nations half-term report: 'France lead the charge in struggle for the soul of rugby'

The game is changing all the time, I don’t recognise it as the game we played/watched in the 60s/70s. Even things like replacements which used to be only for injury have gone by the way etc. Are these ones being used in SR going to change thins, I doubt it, and the whole keep the game in motion is always stumped at test level anyway. go to any test and see sme of the injury breaks etc that are obvious rest periods, see ‘bomb squads’ coming on , and tell me the game isn’t already been corrupted in it’s values. HIA’s being used as and when it suits to give players breaks when they need an extra breather. Raynal is right that set piece is central to our game, but so WAS fitness fpr all players to be fitter than opposition toe still scrum etc for 80 minutes!

Do England need to start worrying about their hooker depth ahead of the World Cup?

I’m know the players released to the clubs doesn’t offer much confidence for selection for the Italy game. Hope I am proved wrong. The interview from Borthwick stating he feels relaxed really concerned me as after the last two matches which were dreadful and the complete drop off in performance and execution he should feel under pressure and England should be adopting a bit of a siege mentality. The whole environment around the team just seems off and something is not right. Think Borthwick has run his course

Ollie Chessum: 'We just lacked a little bit of zip and Ireland clearly didn’t'

Against Ireland in every 50-50 clash it seemed that the Irish came up with the ball as though they wanted it more for Farrell, than the English did for Borthwick. Players weren’t 1-2 % off their game, it was more like 10 - 20 %. As an England fan, I expect every player to give his all. Last week they didn’t!
