After three consecutive successes in the Top 14 (Lyon, Bayonne and Perpignan) and two in the Champions Cup, the Toulonnais have stretched this a little further. great series by crushing Pau (57-25) this Saturday afternoon.

Five different markers and reliable Serin on foot
For the latter before the holidays, five different scorers stood out and Baptiste Serin kept pace, spraying Mayol's poles (17 points, divided between conversions and penalties).

Here is the Var club on the podium of this regular season, its success associated with the defeat of Clermont on the side of La Rochelle allowing it to overtake the “jaunards”. The Toulonnais will especially arrive, pumped up, on the Chaban-Delmas meadow for a shock, a real one, from the top of the table, eye to eye, against the UBB on December 28.
The minutes before kick-off against Pau were marked by the last “Pilou-Pilou” from shouter Christophe Charaut, who has been in place for five years. According to Var Morningthe speaker of the RCT decided to slam the door following accusations of favoritism towards him after having obtained three beach concessions at Mourillon.
