Will Toulon reconnect with its great European history, after the treble of 2013, 2014 and 2015? Reconquering in Top 14 – 4e with 7 victories in eleven days – the RCT will quickly be fixed on the ambitions it can nourish.
The Varois launch their campaign with a long trip to South Africa. They will indeed challenge the Stormers, and their playing master Manie Libbok, this Saturday Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth. A franchise struggling at the start of the season with only two victories in seven days of the United Rugby Championship.
We're going to take three planes and do 1000 hours of flight…
Baptiste Serin
«I'm excited to play the Stormers, but to go there, we're going to do 1000 hours of flying and take three planes… In a schedule that is what it is… The schedule is too hard! We're only going to practice once next week. It's going to be tough in difficult conditions, since we won't be in the same season», Confided the RCT scrum half, Baptiste Serin, to Rugbyrama.
