Jegou et Auradou en cours de transfert vers Mendoza

TOPSHOT - French national rugby players Hugo Auradou (2nd R) and Oscar Jegou (4th L) are escorted by Argentinian Federal Police, as they leave the Interpol headquarters in Buenos Aires for the city of Mendoza, prior to an experts' report in the case of rape, on July 11, 2024. Two players of the French national rugby team are waiting to be questioned by prosecutors in Argentina about claims that they sexually assaulted a woman in an encounter the pair claims was consensual.

Oscar Jegou et Hugo Auradou sont en route pour Mendoza, où ils seront entendus par la justice argentine, selon une information de l’AFP, qui a interrogé le porte-parole du ministère de la Sécurité de Mendoza Javier Garcia.

Ils ont quitté les bureaux d’Interpol à Buenos ce jeudi matin, escortés par la police fédérale argentine. Selon des photographes présents sur place, Jegou et Auradou sont sortis presque en même temps, parka de l’équipe de France sur le dos et capuche sur la tête.

Les deux joueurs du XV de France sont accusés d’agression sexuelle aggravée par une jeune femme rencontrée dans une discothèque de la ville sise au pied de la cordillère des Andes, dans la nuit de samedi à dimanche.

Quelques heures auparavant, les Bleus, avec Jegou (21 ans) et Auradou (20 ans) titulaires, avaient battu l’Argentine (28-13) à l’occasion du premier match de la tournée de Français en Amérique du Sud.

Ils avaient été arrêtés lundi à Buenos Aires, que l’ensemble de la délégation française avait retrouvé dès dimanche. Ils ont été placés en garde à vue puis en détention provisoire, et attendaient depuis leur transfert dans le nord-ouest argentin.

Ils pourraient être contraints d’y rester le temps du procès, si procès il y a, la loi argentine prévoyant que les accusés doivent être jugés sur les lieux des délits présumés.

Le trajet entre Buenos Aires, que les deux accusés avaient rejoint délégation française dimanche, et Mendoza comprend plus de 1000 km, et prend environ 12h30 en voiture. Jegou et Auradou devraient donc arriver à Mendoza tard, ce jeudi.

L’équipe de France de rugby traverse une tempête sévère depuis son arrivée en Amérique du Sud, malgré deux victoires en deux matchs pour le moment (28-13 contre l’Argentine, 43-28 contre l’Uruguay).

A la veille du dépôt de plainte pour viol à l’encontre d’Oscar Jegou et Hugo Auradou, l’encadrement tricolore avait déjà dû gérer le post Instagram à connotation raciste de Melvyn Jaminet, immédiatement renvoyé en France.

'Freelancer' Izaia Perese shows the need for true inclusivity in Australian rugby

That's Cron's job though. Australia has had one of the most penalised scrums in international rugby for a long time. Just look at the scrum win loss percentage and scrum penalties. That is your evidence. AA has been the starter during that period. Pretty simple analysis. That Australia has had a poor scrum for a long time is hardly news. If bell and thor are not on the field they are woeful. So you are just plain wrong. They have very little time for the lions so doing the same old things that dont work is not going to get them there.


Ainsley is better than our next best tighthead options and has been playing well at scrum time for Lyon in the most competitive comp in the world. Superstar player? No. But better than the next best options. So that is a good enough guide. The scrummaging in the Prem is pretty good too so there is Sio's proof. Same analysis for him. Certainly better in both cases than Super, where the brumbies had the worst win loss and scrum pen in Super. Who plays there? Ohh yes... And the level of scrummaging in Super is well below the URC, prem and France with the SA teams out.


Nongorr is truly woeful. He's 130kg and gets shoved about. That just should not be happening at that weight for a specialist prop who has always played rugby cf pone with leauge. He has had enough time to develop at 23. You'd be better off with Pone who is at least good around the field for the moment and sending Nongorr on exchange to France or England to see if they can improve him with better coaching as happened with Skelton and Meafou. He isn't going to develop in time in super if he has it at all.


Latu is a better scrummaging hooker than BPA and Nasser. and he's the best aussie player over the ball at ruck time. McReight's super jackling percentage hasnt converted to international level but latu consistently does it at heniken level, which is similar to test level in the big games. With good coaching at La Rochelle he's much improved though still has the odd shocker. He should start the November games.
