Zapping Fifteen World 6 Nations Calendar 2024
After having beaten Rugby Club Toulonnais in style in the play-off, Stade Rochelais found an old acquaintance in the semi-final: Stade Toulousain. Will the Maritimes manage to ward off the fate that saw them fall too often against the Rouge et Noir in tough matches?
Ronan O’Gara focused on continuity, with an unchanged starting XV against Toulouse. We will therefore find Kerr-Barlow and Antoine Hastoy at the hinge, Oscar Jégou who coaches in the third row, Bruce Dulin at the back, and of course Grégory Alldritt in number 8. We will still note that Matthia sHaddad is making his return and will start on the substitutes’ bench.
