Les Etats-Unis étaient déjà complètement passés à côté du premier tournoi de la saison à Dubaï, ne remportant aucune de leurs rencontres.

Ali Dabo n’a pas tardé à ouvrir le score dès la première minute, mais David Still a vite répondu pour remettre les Américains à deux points, alors que Liam Delamare terminait de purger ses deux minutes de pénalités.

Pas de quoi inquiéter les Bleus. Une course en solitaire de Varian Pasquet redonnait de l’air (12-5). Sur le renvoi suivant, Ali Dabo captait astucieusement le ballon dans les airs avant de transmettre à Simon Désert qui marquait son tout premier essai sur le circuit pour sa toute première sélection (19-5). Le même Simon qui sera trop juste pour stopper le deuxième essai de Still (19-12) juste avant la pause.

Celian Pouzelgues arrivait à maîtriser le ballon offert par Pasquet pour marquer dès le renvoi son deuxième essai du circuit après ses débuts à Dubaï une semaine avant (24-12). Riva marquait à son tour, puis Joe Quere-Karaba faisait parler ses impressionnants appuis pour aplatir lui aussi son tout premier essai sur le circuit (36-12). Enahemo Artaud, le troisième débutant de la rencontre, étendait loin son bras pour étendre le score (43-12). Restait encore un peu de temps pour Pouzelgues pour marquer, juste avant que l’Américain Michael Hand ne fasse son retour après ses deux minutes de pénalités.

Le prochain rendez-vous pour les Français sera contre la Nouvelle-Zélande, sachant qu’une nouvelle large victoire les qualifierait pour les demi-finales.

Une domination sans faille contre les USA

La saison dernière, la France avait déjà dominé ses duels contre les États-Unis en remportant trois de leurs cinq rencontres, avec une marge moyenne confortable de 19 points par match. Un point clé de ce face-à-face : l’équipe qui menait à la pause a toujours gagné. Depuis 2019, ce scénario s’est vérifié lors de leurs 17 duels. Ça s’est encore vérifié cette fois-là.

Cependant, jusqu’à ce samedi 7 décembre, le bilan tricolore face aux Américains en Afrique du Sud était moins reluisant. Sur trois confrontations, la France n’avait réussi à décrocher qu’une seule victoire, lors du quart de finale de Bowl à George en 2010-11.

'Leinster B' team shock Bok-laden Sharks in Durban for rare SA win

I don’t understand Sharks. They looked unplayably good at the outset of the season. Does anyone know what has happenned?

Etzebeth is injured and credit to a very strong Leinster side but has there been a dip or have I imagined it? Maybe they are missing more key players and the squad lacks depth?

Crusaders vs Moana Pasifika: New best 10 in Super Rugby contender, Superman Savea

I live in Dubai, a city epitomizing luxury, innovation, and rapid growth. Known for its iconic skyline, cutting-edge technology, and thriving economy, Dubai attracts people from all over the world, creating a melting pot of cultures and opportunities. With its growing real estate market, it has also become a hotspot for investors seeking profitable ventures. However, despite all its appeal, Dubai is not immune to the risks that come with the digital age, including online scams. Unfortunately, I learned this lesson the hard way when I fell victim to a fake online real estate investment scheme.I had come across an online platform that promised high returns from real estate investments in Dubai. The website appeared professional, with attractive visuals and solid claims of lucrative deals. Enthusiastic about the opportunity, I decided to invest a considerable amount of money AED 300,000. The platform made everything seem so legitimate, with detailed reports, customer support, and even seemingly real testimonials. As someone who lives in Dubai and is familiar with the local real estate market, I believed this was a solid investment opportunity.However, things began to take a turn for the worse after I made the transfer. At first, the returns appeared on the platform, but when I tried to withdraw some funds, I encountered strange delays. Soon, the website started malfunctioning, and the support team became unreachable. My investment appeared to have disappeared, and I realized that I had been scammed. It was a crushing experience to lose such a significant amount of money, and I felt both helpless and frustrated. Determined not to give up, I searched for ways to recover my funds and came across Trust Geeks Hack Expert Website, www://trustgeekshackexpert.com , a reputable company specializing in tracking down online fraud and helping victims get their money back. I contacted their team, and they took immediate action, carefully investigating the fraudulent platform I had invested in. Within a short period, Trust Geeks Hack Expert successfully tracked the fraud and managed to recover my AED 300,000.Dubai is an exciting place to live and invest, but this experience taught me a valuable lesson about the importance of being cautious when it comes to online investments. The city's dynamic nature and rapid growth also attract scammers who try to take advantage of people like me. Thanks to the diligent efforts of Trust Geeks Hack Expert, I was able to recover my funds and learn to be more careful when navigating online investment opportunities. for assistance, Email: info@trustgeekshackexpert.com (TeleGram Trustgeekshackexpert) & what's A p p  +1 7 1 9 4 9 2 2 6 9 3

Richie Mo'unga lifts lid on 2027 Rugby World Cup ambitions

His comment that “defense is optional - by me too!” shows why form in Japan does not always translate well back to Super or International rugby. Time marches on and very seldom, do we pick up from where we were - especially from 3 years ago. Good to hear he has aspirations but I hope he has to earn it and is not an anointed favorite child who is given automatic selection overshadowing players who are emerging in much tougher environments. Razor has a tendency to stick with players past their “Best By” dates - Wyatt Crockett excepted.

Saracens to controversially rest England stars for Champions Cup KO game

This is what is hurting the Champions Cup and it is related to the round of 16. Saracens do not believe they have a realistic chance in this competition and are selecting accordingly. They are right about their chances. 8 teams at least have no chance and are not interested in sacrificing their domestic chances.

That said I know Ulster and Munster as past winners will have a crack. But it will hurt their domestic ‘race to eight’.

It could just be they got their international shot, and developed when they did, sure.

But Brad shields was soft as butter before he left, that’s why he was never going to get more than a few injury replacement caps for the ABs.

Much, much better player for his time up north.

'We had a good plan, we saw the opportunity to beat the Sharks': Leo Cullen

I think Leinster had a plan to win both matches.

The defensive pressure was impressive and it made things hard for sharks with the greasy ball. That’s not an academy team though, a lot of those guys have two SA tours under their belt and a load of Leinster caps. There were a few new caps but so few as to not effect the system. Gunne was a first start but he has had a good few appearances and is a talent in play and attitide.


Sharks reaction to some early errors seemed to shout “Here we go again”.

As good as Leinster played and as hard as they made it, I assumed that Sharks would have the quality to find a way. Leinster slowed the rucks just enough to cause Sharks some issues and overruns etc.

The great Eben Etzebeth was missing and he is clearly great in motivating and driving a team as well as in play. Some thing more than Etzebeth missing. The Leinster players not playing today will be cheering and sucking energy from that performance as much as if they were there. That’s the spirit in the club. Anyone can see how bonded and loyal Snyman, Barrett and Slimani are in a small period of time. I think Leinster have a special setup up there, but Sharks are definately below average in belief, confidence and spirit based on Saturday.

Obviously a straight forward kick for a draw was available at the end but I don’t think that would have been acceptable and Sharks must go for the win at home.


Note: Zebo said in coverage that if Erasmus has the reigns with Sharks they would be no1 in URC and Champions Cup ‘By a distance’. I don’t agree with that ofcourse but in between sucking up to Erasmus he is clearly pinpointing what he believes is a coaching issue.

'We had a good plan, we saw the opportunity to beat the Sharks': Leo Cullen

It’s poor coaching. You can’t argue against the calibre of players at the Sharks disposal. If there are too many egos in that dressing room then get a no nonsense coach like Ackerman to step in.

Congrats to academy Leinster players, easily rolled a vaunted Bok laden squad and handled the ball better than locals could. Plumtree has to go and take Neil with him.

'Leinster B' team shock Bok-laden Sharks in Durban for rare SA win

Leinster B team a bit rich they’re an excellent side with the best of sport science coaching behind them making the utmost of their personnel. Rugby SA and Rassie the wizard need to find some better coaching talent from seomewhere for our franchises they're falling behind. Plumtree isn't bad but he's not up there with the big boys even Jake just makes the cut. With better coaching and use of our super talented Sharks personnel the Sharks would be unbeatable.

Leinster deserved the win. Sharks deserved a bigger beating.


I need to quit the stupid optimism that we will soon see the Sharks play to their potential.

'We had a good plan, we saw the opportunity to beat the Sharks': Leo Cullen

Credit to Leinster. Sharks are heroes against average opposition, and zeros against well-coached teams. Amazing, given the awesome roster.


Plumtree says it was only one score. Hello? Some thoughts: 1/ The best coaches never say that, and 2/ an incremental maul try would not change the fact that the team was boring and static in attack.


Suggestion for Neil Powell: Stop doing whatever you are doing, and do whatever it takes to hire a coaching team with vision.

Richie Mo’unga is in brilliant form in Japan. Following on from his genius as a number 10, being so pivotal to 7 titles under Razor with the Crusaders, 2017-23. Richie is badly needed. A mercurial , brilliant 10.

Crusaders coach admits they were 'beaten up physically' by Moana Pasifika

I back the Crusaders to bounce back and beat the Drua. After 2 terrible performances over their in the last 2 years and another one against Moana Pasifika, there should be no shortage of motivation. As article states , we missed second five and captain David Havili big time . He is the form player in that position.Go Davy and the rest of the Crusaders !!
