Le banc en 7-1, pas un problème « d'un point de vue scientifique ou médical » pour World Rugby

Le ‘bomb squad’ à la française, utilisé par les Bleus sur les trois derniers matchs du Tournoi des Six Nations, continue de faire parler de lui.

En plaçant sept avants parmi les huit remplaçants autorisés, Fabien Galthié a non seulement mené l’équipe de France à la victoire dans le Tournoi, mais également suscité bon nombre de commentaires.

« Je ne crois pas que le banc ait été mis en place pour pouvoir faire entrer en jeu un pack tout frais », avait notamment objecté Gregor Townsend, le sélectionneur d’une équipe d’Écosse battue au Stade de France lors de la dernière journée de la compétition. « C’est à World Rugby de décider ce qu’on peut faire avec le banc. Mais à l’heure actuelle, rien n’empêche d’y placer huit avants. »

Justement, l’instance dirigeante mondiale a réagi par la voix de son président Brett Robinson, qui a reconnu que cette tactique posait question quant à l’esprit du jeu, tout en soulignant que cela ne posait pas problème d’un point de vue scientifique.

Des propos corroborés par le directeur général de World Rugby, Alan Gilpin, dans les colonnes du Guardian. « Nous avons examiné la question d’un point de vue scientifique et médical. Le risque de blessure augmente-t-il en faisant entrer un groupe de joueurs frais à 20-30 minutes de la fin ?

« La science dit que ce n’était pas le cas. Il n’y avait donc aucune raison, de ce point de vue, d’envisager de changer la manière d’organiser les remplacements. En fin de compte, il y a beaucoup de façons différentes de gagner un match de rugby. »

Dans la lignée de l’Afrique du Sud, pionnière dans l’utilisation d’un banc comportant sept avants, l’équipe de France a signé trois succès marquants avec son banc en 7-1, dû en bonne partie à l’usure imposée en deuxième période à ses adversaires.

L’Italie a été humiliée 73-24 à Rome (35-17 à la mi-temps), l’Irlande dominée à Dublin (42-27 alors qu’elle menait 13-8 à la 43e) et l’Écosse balayée 35-16 (16-13 à la pause) à Saint-Denis.

Pour le moment, seuls les Springboks (occasionnellement) et les Bleus (sur leurs trois derniers matchs) ont aligné un tel banc. Car cela nécessite non seulement une profondeur richesse d’effectif rare à trouver au niveau international, mais aussi une grande polyvalence chez les joueurs.

On se souvient que le flanker Oscar Jegou a par exemple disputé 35 minutes au poste de trois-quarts centre en Irlande, après la blessure de Pierre-Louis Barassi.

D’autres nations majeures, comme la Nouvelle-Zélande et l’Australie, n’ont même jamais dérogé au banc « classique », comportant cinq avants et trois arrières ces dernières années. Jusqu’à quand ?

Is the All Blacks captaincy right for Scott Barrett?

CALL OR VISIT TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY ON WhatsApp    +15617263697   Or  Telegram  +15617263697  Several weeks ago, my life was irrevocably altered by a crypto romance scam, a cruel amalgamation of emotional manipulation and financial exploitation. A person I believed to be my partner, whom I had met on a niche trading forum, gradually ensnared me into investing in a purportedly “groundbreaking” decentralized finance (DeFi) project. Over several months, they meticulously cultivated trust, shared fabricated returns, and even orchestrated video calls with supposed “developers” to lend credence to the scheme. By the time I discerned the truth, a staggering $215,000 of my life savings had evaporated into a labyrinth of blockchain addresses, and the individual I thought I knew had vanished without a trace. The betrayal was paralyzing; I felt not only financially devastated but emotionally shattered. As a small business owner, I am no stranger to risk, but this was a domain far beyond my comprehension. I promptly filed reports with the FTC, collaborated with cybersecurity experts, and spent countless sleepless nights poring over Etherscan, desperately attempting to trace the transactions. However, the scammers’ adept use of privacy coins and offshore exchanges rendered the trail elusive, dissipating like smoke. Each dead end deepened my despair and sense of helplessness. Amid this turmoil, I confided in a family friend about my harrowing ordeal. After hearing my story, he referred me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Initially skeptical but driven by desperation, I visited their website and was struck by their no-nonsense commitment to transparency. Unlike other firms that promised miraculous recoveries, Tech Cyber Force Recovery provided a clear breakdown of their process: forensics, collaboration with international legal networks, and direct engagement with exchanges to freeze illicit funds. When I contacted Tech Cyber Force Recovery, their team approached my case faster. They meticulously analyzed my situation, keeping me informed at every stage of the recovery process. Ultimately, they succeeded in recovering my entire investment, restoring my financial stability, and rekindling my faith in the possibility of justice in the digital age. This experience has imparted invaluable lessons about vigilance and the importance of seeking help when navigating the dangerous currents of cryptocurrency. Tech Cyber Force Recovery has proven to be a beacon of hope for those ensnared in the web of crypto fraud, demonstrating that recovery is indeed possible with the right support and expertise.
