“It’s amazing what’s being done. The strength of the club is to never be satisfied.” At the age of 20, Paul Costes confirmed, during the festivities at the Capitol, the cannibalistic side of Stade Toulousain. In the space of 4 seasons, the Rouge et Noir have achieved 2 Top 14/Champions Cup doubles. No French club can boast of having done the same.
8 Toulousains played in the 4 finals
2 doubles, this represents 4 finals to win. On Friday June 28, Toulouse did it in style, crushing Bordeaux-Bègles (59-3) for what represents the biggest victory in the history of the French championship finals.
More broadly, during these 4 won finals, 8 Toulouse residents were present on the match sheets each time: Peato Mauvaka, François Cros, Richie Arnold, Thibaud Flament, Antoine Dupont, Thomas Ramos, Pita Ahki and Juan Cruz Mallia.
And there are only 4 of them to have started in the 4 finals: François Cros, Antoine Dupont, Pita Ahki et Juan Cruz Mallia. Fort !
