Antoine Dupont, tout aussi brillant à l’ouverture (même pendant 20 minutes)

Antoine Dupont est une charnière à lui tout seul. S’il est demi de mêlée 95% du temps, il lui arrive de jouer à l’ouverture – les 5% restants. Et la dernière fois, c’était lors de la grosse victoire de Toulouse contre Toulon (57-5) dimanche 27 octobre au soir.

S’il a débuté à la mêlée, il a été repositionné demi d’ouverture à la 61e minute pour les besoins du jeu et les impératifs du Stade Toulousain.

A ce moment-là, l’arrière Thomas Ramos – qui ne dira jamais assez qu’il préfère jouer 15 et non 10 – était remplacé numériquement par le demi de mêlée Paul Graou.

Jeu de chaises musicales

Pour conserver Dupont sur le terrain s’est alors opéré un jeu de chaises musicales. Juan Cruz Mallia, qui avait débuté demi d’ouverture, a retrouvé son poste de prédilection à l’arrière, laissant donc une place de libre à l’ouverture pour Antoine Dupont.

    WATCH as French captain Antoine Dupont spits the dummy about some of referee Ben O’Keeffe’s decision in their one-point loss to South Africa

    Alors qu’il était surveillé de près, voire empêché de mener à bien ses actions, Antoine Dupont a quand même été déterminant à plusieurs reprises et notamment pour mettre la pression sur Toulon au sortir d’une mêlée, ce qui a eu pour effet de mener à l’essai de Mallia (17e). Il aurait même pu en marquer un lui-même s’il n’avait pas été stoppé par Ben White (27e).

    Même à l’ouverture Dupont a été brillant grâce à sa lecture du jeu et son animation offensive qui a noyé complètement la défense toulonnaise.

    Il s’en ouvrait au micro de Canal + juste après le coup de sifflet final. « A Toulouse on est habitué à jouer à plusieurs postes, on est presque tous polyvalent », disait-il.

    « Il a toutes les qualités pour être un bon 10 »

    Quelques jours auparavant, le sélectionneur du XV de France Fabien Galthié ne cachait pas son envie de le tester lui aussi sur d’autres postes.

    « Antoine est très bien entouré à Toulouse. Il a aussi conscience de ce qu’il peut faire et ne peut pas faire », expliquait-il à L’Équipe.

    « Pour le changement de poste, je ne sais pas s’il a lui-même poussé sa réflexion. Dans nos discussions, il ne m’a pas dit : “J’ai envie de me tester en 10 ou j’ai envie de jouer au centre.”

    « Il a toutes les qualités pour être un bon 10 puisqu’il domine le rapport de force et qu’il est juste dans ce qu’il fait. C’est aussi un phénomène défensif. Mais je crois qu’il est aujourd’hui concentré sur sa position de demi de mêlée. C’est d’ailleurs une bonne idée, surtout pour une vision et une ambition à trois ans. »

    Et l’intéressé se voit-il pourquoi à jouer en 10 avec l’équipe nationale ? « Je jouerai là où on me le demande », répond-il simplement.

    Premiership Cup semi-final draw and dates confirmed

    It was a cold evening when I realized I had lost everything. My heart pounded in my chest as I stared at my empty crypto wallet. Three hundred thousand dollars’ worth of Bitcoin—gone. I had fallen victim to an elaborate scam, a promise of high returns that had turned into my worst nightmare.I had always been cautious with my investments, but these scammers were professionals. They posed as a legitimate crypto investment firm, complete with a polished website, convincing testimonials, and even fake regulatory approvals. Their scheme was perfect—until it wasn’t. After weeks of trying to recover my funds on my own, filing complaints, and chasing shadows, I almost gave up. That’s when I stumbled upon Galaxy Ethical Tech, a company renowned for its expertise in ethical tech solutions and cryptocurrency fraud recovery. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out to Galaxy Ethical Tech through their official website. Within hours, I received a response from their lead investigator, Daniel Carter. His calm yet confident tone gave me a renewed sense of hope. We’ve handled cases like yours before,” he assured me. “If the scammers haven’t moved your Bitcoin through an extensive network of tumblers, there’s a good chance we can track it. I handed over all the details—wallet addresses, transaction IDs, emails, and even chat logs with the scammers. Within 48 hours, their team of blockchain analysts got to work.Galaxy Ethical Tech used advanced blockchain forensics to trace the movement of my stolen Bitcoin. Every transaction left a digital footprint, and with their AI-driven tracking tools, they followed the money trail. It turned out that the scammers had transferred my Bitcoin through a series of crypto mixers, attempting to break the chain of traceability. However, Galaxy Ethical Tech had access to specialized de-anonymization algorithms and partnerships with global cybersecurity agencies. One breakthrough came when they identified a suspicious transaction leading to a centralized exchange. Using legal channels and law enforcement partnerships, they froze the scammer’s wallet before they could cash out.After two intense weeks, I received an email from Galaxy Ethical Tech: We’ve recovered your lost Bitcoin. Expect the full amount in your wallet within 24 hours. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I checked my wallet obsessively until, finally, my 300,000 BTC was back.You don’t know what this means to me,” I said, my voice shaking.He chuckled. “Just another day at Galaxy Ethical Tech. Stay safe, and always verify before you trust. Losing my Bitcoin was a nightmare, but it taught me valuable lessons: Never trust unsolicited investment opportunities. Always verify the legitimacy of crypto platforms. Use secure wallets and enable two-factor authentication.
