How do you feel after this great success?
I want to tell you that the group gave themselves an early Christmas present. We want to share this gift with the supporters. We had a good start, and we could have made it a little easier in the second half. We gave a lot of things to Pau. Fortunately, we were able to achieve a strong end to the game. We were able to progress until we got the offensive bonus. It's a good thing for us. We have a lot of confidence for the next match at Bordeaux-Bègles, and especially for the rest of the season.
Toulon gets on the podium… Is this anecdotal?
Yes and no… Above all, the work is paying off! In recent weeks, we have worked very hard to approach the Champions Cup well. Our efforts are paying off. Today, we are reaping the fruit of our work in training. Now, you have to go to Bordeaux-Bègles with the desire to enjoy yourself and give your all.
You got the ball rolling with your essay. We saw you dive into the goal like a certain Joe Van Niekerk…
It's one of the best feelings you can have as a player (smile). It's always a pleasure to play Mayol. Scoring… It’s a huge bonus! I make the most of all that, the playing time that the staff gives me. Honestly, it's a good day for the group but also for me.
You celebrated your try by kissing the Toulon coat of arms. It's a gesture that we rarely see. Why did you do it?
I haven't made a huge impact in my career (smile), so I don't really know what to do. That’s how it came to embrace the coat of arms. You know, I'm trying to make the most of the time I have left here. This club is my whole life so I want to enjoy my last months. I love this club deeply, more than anything. It's a club that is very important to me. This gesture is not calculated. I embrace this coat of arms because I love it. This club is dear to me.
We feel you moved…
Yes… Everyone knows it, but I'm going to say it really: everything is done, I'm going to Perpignan at the end of the year. Now that that's said, I don't want to talk about it anymore. I want to think about only one thing… I want to enjoy myself and give everything for Toulon! The future, we'll talk about it later
