Le talonneur international de La Rochelle Pierre Bourgarit, victime d’une fracture du tibia samedi contre Pau et opéré dans la foulée, sera éloigné des terrains entre quatre et six mois, a annoncé jeudi Sébastien Boboul, l’entraîneur des arrières.

Bourgarit, qui a reçu la visite de ses coéquipiers et du staff dimanche à l’hôpital, « va très bien, il est sorti lundi en fin de matinée, et depuis lundi il est avec nous », a déclaré Sébastien Boboul en conférence de presse.

« Pour son indisponibilité, ça va dépendre de la cicatrisation, mais il faut compter quatre à six mois ».

Bourgarit s’est gravement blessé au tibia après un plaquage régulier de son ancien coéquipier aujourd’hui à Pau Rémi Picquette juste avant la mi-temps. C’est sa deuxième grosse blessure cette année après celle contractée à l’épaule en janvier qui l’avait contraint à six mois de repos.

Bourgarit, « deux ans qu’il a la poisse »

« Ça fait deux ans qu’il a la poisse », a résumé Boboul. « Ça fait partie d’une carrière d’avoir des bas comme celui-là (…) On va lui donner deux ou trois choses à faire pour continuer à le concerner ».

La Rochelle n’envisage pas de recruter de joker médical pour le suppléer et devrait faire confiance à ses jeunes.

Par rapport aux vainqueurs de la Section paloise (49-25), le club à la caravelle n’enregistre qu’un retour, celui du centre samoan UJ Seuteni pour le déplacement samedi à Créteil où il affrontera le Racing 92.

Le demi de mêlée néo-zélandais Tawera Kerr-Barlow, qui se remet d’une blessure au mollet, a été jugé trop court et le flanker fidjien Levani Botia, absent depuis mai et une fracture à un avant-bras, n’a pas encore reçu le feu vert pour reprendre le rugby avec contact.

How can Scott Robertson revive the All Blacks’ playmaking ‘triple threat’?

Love how you stoke up the fire with these slow burners Nick, great time to let the air into this one too coming into Jordies new home for a few months.


Razor (and possibly Cullen?) is the perfect coach to keep fueling Jordies own flame. Foster on the other hand has to be a people person because he's always trying to douse everyones due to his own lack of enterprise.


I didn't want to nark on the man but we still have Reiks waiting to be ignited as well. His own play when he first moved to center was full of threat and tact. He could cut in just as easily as swing out and had some great ball handling to put people away with. While we haven't seen much more of that since, I think he has at least been working hard on his defence and his books under Foster and Schmidt, and could turn into a Conrad (or even Nonu) one day. I'm not quite so sure Jordie has been making the same progress in the meantime.


I've been really happy with Jordies workons this year however, but that Final was a big learning curve and I've not really sure I've seen the calmness required to pull off Nonu type plays through his career so far. In fact he has often been the opposite and been a bit ropey when he was in more of a playmaker role at 15, I do think he has all the skills and desire to make these sorts of plays though, just having such a wide scope as a 'triple' threat put's a big demand on being able to read the game. So perhaps I might not go too much further than trying to use that big boot, and keeping it simple really. Like Nonu did.


I'm happy with all those 10 and 15 pictures myself, especially the ones where Jordan is playing more of a hand. He is someone who certainly could do with some sort of 'double' threat to help his line breaking ability and I certainly think he has some sort of innate skill to do the right thing. Sadly it's not going to happen in conjunction with Beaudie I don't think. This is going to be retirement. 2nd start back playing with his old courage (he actually did run the ball after all) and he's concussed again, not good.


Trouble is for this team, it could be a completely different 10, 12, 13. That shouldn't stop Razor from encouraging all the options the All Blacks have in those positions, right now. Also looking forward to Perofeta coming into fullback late instead of BB or Dmac going there.
