Gaël Fickou a encore faim

Gaël Fickou a toujours faim et ce n’est pas un match débuté en tant que remplaçant qui va l’arrêter.

Pour la première fois de l’ère Galthié, Gaël Fickou, habituel leader de défense, n’était pas titulaire au centre. Il est toutefois pressenti pour revenir contre les All Blacks, adversaire contre qui son expérience ne sera pas de trop.

Le joueur du Racing 92, qui était titulaire lors des huit premières journées de Top 14, connait bien les Blacks puisqu’il était des deux derniers matchs, remportés par les Bleus. Et il ne masque pas son excitation.

« Ça fait toujours quelque chose de les jouer, ce sont toujours des matches extraordinaires, avec une ambiance extraordinaire. Il y a toujours une ferveur en France autour des Néo-Zélandais qui est incroyable. »

Le centre français met cette rencontre au même niveau que les matchs contre l’Angleterre et il est sûr de la force des siens avant ces retrouvailles. « On a autant de talent qu’eux. C’est une très belle équipe mais je pense qu’on a les moyens de rivaliser avec eux. »

C’est d’ailleurs ce talent qui a poussé le joueur aux 91 sélections sur le banc pour le match contre le Japon, certainement car le staff veut préparer l’avenir. « Il y a des supers joueurs à mon poste, qui poussent, qui ont du talent, comme Emilien (Gailleton), Yoram (Moefana), Paul Costes », avance Fickou. En somme, il n’y a pas d’âge pour être remis en question, une bonne chose après un Tournoi des Six Nations 2024 où le public reprochait une sorte d’immobilisme et de souplesse exacerbée à l’égard des cadres de l’équipe.

Mais Gaël Fickou se refuse à tomber dans cette dynamique. « C’est une bonne chose pour moi car ça me met en difficulté et c’est ce qu’il faut pour tirer le meilleur de soi-même. À moi d’être bon pour rester là. J’ai toujours été challengé, ça n’a jamais été facile, j’ai toujours dû me battre. »

In 2024, I received a substantial tax refund, which I saw as a golden opportunity to improve my financial situation. Eager to invest, I became interested in Bitcoin, a digital currency that many believe represents the future of finance. Unfortunately, my excitement led me to a fraudulent company that promised incredible returns on investments. Their persuasive tactics and seemingly legitimate operations drew me in, but it didn’t take long for me to realize that I had been deceived, and my hard-earned money $572,000 had vanished.Feeling devastated and hopeless after losing such a significant amount, I reached out to a friend who had faced a similar ordeal. They recommended a company called GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , which specializes in recovering lost Bitcoin. Although I was skeptical, my desperation pushed me to contact them for help.From the very first interaction with GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was impressed by their understanding and willingness to help. Their team guided me through the recovery process, providing the support I needed during this challenging time. They explained each step clearly and kept me informed throughout the entire journey.
