Zapping Fifteen World 6 Nations Calendar 2024
One year. It has now been a year since Blair Kinghorn arrived in Toulouse. And in less than a full season, he has completely taken over the club's systems and become an indispensable part of the team, much like Jack Willis before him, when he arrived from Wasps. Two examples which show to what extent the recruitment of Stade Toulousain is thought out down to the smallest detail to find players who will immediately stick to the project. In recent years, it has not failed.
Blair Kinghorn was so successful in his new colors that he managed to place Thomas Ramos, the other full-back in the group, on the bench for a while. The Scot also shares another point in common with the French international, in addition to his affinity with the 15 position: the fact of being one of the team's scorers. And yet, as he himself indicated to Rugbyrama, he did not practice this exercise before. But everything changed when he arrived in Haute-Garonne, with a speech from Ugo Mola who was able to give him confidence.
Before coming, I hardly ever encountered Edinburgh. Then, during the negotiations, Ugo told me: “You are a good scorer.” I answered yes. I practice every day and have gained confidence in this exercise. I like it.
If Blair Kinghorn is impressed by the “super skills” his teammates have, he is not the last on the list in terms of talent. A talent which has only grown while playing with his new club (he does not hesitate to say that even in Scotland we notice that he has improved), within which he has “a wonderful year“. With two titles in a few months, we want to believe it. “JI hope the current season will be as good“, he adds. It's going well, for the moment.
To summarize
One year. It has now been a year since Blair Kinghorn arrived in Toulouse. And in less than a full season, he has completely taken over the club's systems and become an indispensable part of the team. In particular, he made his game more complete by strengthening his practice of an aspect of the game that he had left aside in Scotland.
