Exclu en Top 14 contre La Rochelle, le joueur de l’UBB et de l’équipe de France Yoram Moefana a été suspendu trois semaines par la LNR.

Passé ce mercredi 30 octobre devant la commission de discipline de la Ligue nationale de rugby (LNR), le trois-quarts centre de l’Union Bordeaux-Bègles et de l’équipe de France Yoram Moefana connait désormais sa sanction.

Le joueur est suspendu pour une durée de trois semaines, et manquera par conséquent la rencontre de Top 14 de ce week-end et le premier test des Bleus face au Japon, dans le cadre de l’Autumn Nations Series, le 8 novembre.

Mais il pourrait toutefois gagner une semaine en participant au Head Contact Process, un dispositif mis en place par World Rugby sur la technique de plaquage, ce qu’il a demandé.

Moefana avait reçu un carton rouge contre La Rochelle le 20 octobre, après un choc tête contre tête sur son vis-à-vis Jonathan Danty. Il a été reconnu par la commission de discipline « jeu dangereux » pour ce plaquage non maîtrisé.

Pour ce genre de faute, le degré moyen prévu par l’échelle de gravité est une suspension de six semaines.

Mais le Girondin a vu cette sanction réduit de moitié « après prise en compte des circonstances atténuantes (expression de remords, reconnaissance de la culpabilité, casier disciplinaire vierge, jeunesse et inexpérience et conduite avant et pendant l’audience) », a précisé la LNR dans un communiqué.

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

The way they are defending is sometime pathetic to be honest. Itoje is usually on the inside of the rush and he is paired with a slower tight forward. Unable to keep up with the rush we have seen the line become disconnected on the inside where the big boys are. How many times have we seen Earl rush past the first receiver almost into no mans land covering no attacker. It looks like a system without any guidance. Tome Wright, Ikitau and a number of Wallabies went back to this soft centre as did Williams, Jordan and several others. Also when the line is broken the multiple lines of defence seems to be missing. The rush is predicated on a cover and recovery system with multiple lines of defence but with England you dont see it any more. Fitness and conditioning seems to be off as well as players are struggling to keep up with the intensity of the rush. Felix Jones has left a huge hole. The whole situation was and is a mess. Why they insist on not letting him go and having him work remotely is beyond me. Its leading to massive negative press and is a hot button issue thats distracting from the squad. Also the communication around Jones and his role has been absolute rubbish and is totally disjointed. While some say he is working remotely and playing a role others are saying theres been no contact. His role has not been defined and so people keep asking and keep getting different answers. England need a clean break from him and need to start over. Whatever reason for his leaving its time to cut the rope before the saga drags the whole Borthwick regime down. As for Joe El Abd well good luck to him. He is being made to look like an amateur by the whole saga and he is being asked to coach a system thats not his and which has been perfected and honed since 2017 by Nienaber, Jones, Erasmus and Co and which was first started by White in 2004. He is literally trying to figure out a system pioneered by double world cup winning coaches at the highest level and coach it at the same time. Talk about being on a hiding to nothing.
