Perpignan se réveille face à Clermont mais perd Tuilagi

Par Jérémy Fahner

Revoir Giral, et rugir. Dernière équipe de Top 14 sans la moindre victoire après trois journées, l’USAP a profité de son premier véritable match à domicile pour enfin terminer un match les bras levés en dominant Clermont (33-3), malgré la grave blessure de Posolo Tuilagi.

Toutes les stats et les données

La pose d’une nouvelle pelouse avait en effet contraint les Catalans à ”accueillir” Montpellier à Béziers, et cette délocalisation avait tourné au fiasco (défaite 26-7).

Cette fois, sur un gazon béni par l’évêque des Pyrénées-Orientales une heure avant le match, Perpignan a livré une tout autre partie.

Impériales dans les rucks, engagées en défense et balle en main, dominantes devant, les troupes de Franck Azéma ont véritablement lancé leur saison.

Menés par un très bon Antoine Aucagne, les Perpignanais ont rapidement creusé un écart qui s’est montré insurmontable pour les hommes de Christophe Urios. Ils menaient en effet 12-0 à 19e minute de jeu, et 18-3 à la pause.

Premier essai pour le champion olympique Joseph

Secoués à la pause, les Auvergnants revenaient plus entreprenants, chipant notamment énormément de lancers catalans en début de deuxième période. Mais sans parvenir à ne serait-ce que réduire le score…

Au contraire, l’USAP allait chercher le bonus offensif grâce au premier essai du champion olympique Jefferson-Lee Joseph, confirmé en toute fin de match par un dernier essai collectif conclu en force par le talonneur remplaçant Victor Montgaillard.

Perpignan prend le large grâce à Jefferson-Lee Joseph !

Une victoire toutefois assombrie par les blessures, et pas des moindres : le 2e ligne Posolo Tuilagi a quitté le terrain sur civière, et on suspecte une fracture tibia-péroné pour le jeune international.

Le 3e ligne Jacobus Van Tonden, qui vient de prolonger son contrat de deux ans, est également sorti sur blessure, au genou le concernant.

Enfin, on a vu l’ouvreur Jake McIntyre le bras en écharpe sur le banc de touche en 2e période.

Ireland lose Tadhg Furlong for All Blacks showdown - report

Most of the scrum penalties against NZ were mainly the ref's interpretation of it, so a different ref could've resulted in NZ penalties instead. Also don't forget that Tosi and Tu'ungafasi came on in the 2nd half and demolished England's scrum in the 2nd half which swung the game's momentum back to NZ.

Walter betrays himself with his answers. Like saying only half of that is correct. But they are all claims he has made on this website. So is he saying half the time he is lying.

The trouble with being a serial liar is you must have an excellent memory or else you are exposed. And if you are seriously mentally impaired like Walter you don't have a good memory.

England might have looked like scoring a try or two had the ABs not repeatedly tackled players off the ball after went through a few phases.

Clearly though, Borthwick got his game plan wrong - albeit, he nearly pulled it off, by trying to keep the ABs contained and play within the 15m line. Always a questionable strategy when you try and stop the opposition playing their game rather than enforcing your own.

Yeah we are just an average rugby side and Ireland will put 30 on us. Hope you guys keep believing that.

Calls NZ "lucky" and yet they scored 3 tries to England's 1, with another try disallowed. England didn't look like scoring a try from their own buildup at all during the entire game and even got favourable refereeing decisions and treatment by Angus.

NZ deserved to win because they dominated all areas of the game except for discipline - and in that area England were lucky not to concede multiple penalties for standing offside or slowing down the ruck for the entire game.

TBH I see SA slipping in this WC cycle Nick. France are never really a top side tho. They just cannot do the same thing consistantly. Ireland and England are more likely to become top sides than France even tho France can beat anyone on any given day. Having said that SA has a lot in their favour in this WC cycle. Hosting many tests like 2 this year v ABs, 4 in 2026 v ABs so in the 4 year cycle thats going to be 3 tests in NZ and 6 in SA.

Rob Kearney’s All Blacks verdict: ‘They're scared of Ireland now...’

What’s the bet that if Ireland lose we’ll have a bunch of people blaming Rob Kearney for it?

This might pizz the All Blacks off but it won’t make George Bell throw the ball any straighter or Rieko pass the ball to his wings more often.

Not if you look at where the increases are happening for NZR. Apparently the biggest increase in participation was in the junior ranks and has been attributed to the extra cash that tier has received from the private equity deal NZR signed. Clubs are reducing fees dramatically and thats bringing more into the clubs. Counties club had a 200% increase in enrollments for U7s as they made it free.

Yes NRL is always hanging around schoolboy rugby tho. I see the NRL as more of a threat at SR level where the fringe players are signing for either NRL or Japan etc.

Only half is that correct :). You are good at making stuff up tho, like pretending not to be a kiwi. I guess pretending to be a Scotsman is like being a 2nd hand kiwi. Yes I failed in supporting that f.... Tah Jones. I should have known better.

But he also believes in cheating to win. Canterbury's McCaw being the ultimate exponent.

It's the Canterbury way.

Unfortunately for them other teams have woken up to this and know they can bait the All Blacks in to it, especially late in the game if under pressure. It's killing their chances. They can't help themselves because that is the blueprint Robertson is imposing upon them.

My kiwi mate might be right. Robertson is a dud. England lost the game on the weekend rather than the All Blacks winning it.

Cultural reason behind divisive England trait explained by ex-Bok coach

Only really works as a tactic for the teams vibe if that’s their attitude for the whole game.

If they force an error like CCS did, if they keep that energy up when things aren’t going their way, then there is value in it.

But if they’re just going to party up on the other teams mistakes and be church mice when things go bad then it’s kind of a waste of time.

He chose his path Miz. Why lose 200 other players for the sake of 1 who has been at the ABs the whole time they have "slipped"? Id rather we get Jacomb and Miller in to the team. Both look very good. Plus Cameron from the Canes too. A basic player but does it very well.
