Exit internationals
After three consecutive victories, the Rochelais had started their season rather well, but ran into a wall last weekend, and conceded a second defeat, with a bitter taste.
Antoine Hastoy’s teammates broke their teeth on the Anoeta lawn against Aviron Bayonnais, who were very strong for Manu Tuilagi’s first. Final result, the Maritimes lost 37-7.
After the meeting, manager and perfectionist Ronan O’Gara was not kind to his players, and also took responsibility for such a rout, apologizing to supporters at the microphone of Canal +.
Currently third in the championship, La Rochelle is therefore keen to successfully host the Bordeaux leader, with a typical team. The probable composition starts with a first line composed of Reda Wardi, Tolo Latu and Uini Atonio.
In the cage, Thomas Lavault will once again start and Will Skelton regains his starting place. His power was sorely missed last weekend. In the third line, Cancoriet and Boudehent will be the two flankers, and will supervise Grégory Alldritt who will be captain.
At the hinge, Tawera Kerr-Barlow will be associated with Antoine Hastoy, like last weekend. On the other hand, the pair of centers will not be the same with the tenure of Danty, with the return of Seuteni.
On the wings, Leyds and Nowell will do the necessary work, while Brice Dulin remains in place in the deep field. On the bench, we will find strong elements like Colombe, Douglas, Hadadd, Favre, Berjon and even Penvernne.
