Before the duel between Exeter and Stade Toulousain in the Champions Cup, the English club, with a good dose of humor, compared the statistics of their scrum-half with those of Antoine Dupont.
Designated favorite of the Champions Cup, Stade Toulousain struck a major blow by correcting Ulster (61-21) during the first day of competition. Exeter, the next opponent for Ugo Mola's men, is preparing to suffer.
With a good dose of humor and self-mockery, the English club prepared this poster with a statistical comparison between its scrum-half, Stu Townsend, and superstar Antoine Dupont. To avoid getting depressed, the Chiefs chose their own criteria.
Dupont beaten on all counts
Thus, Exeter recalls that Townsend has the ascendancy in the number of minutes played for the Taunton Titans club, an English fourth division team. Furthermore, Dupont has no selection with the U20s of the XV de la Rose (logical, right?), unlike his counterpart.
At the same time, Townsend leads 1-0 in the number of “Irish international brides” (Nichola Fryday is the companion of the English No. 9) as well as the number of holes in one made on the Teignmouth golf course. For now, this is perhaps where Dupont, if he brings his clubs to South Devon, has the best chance of catching up.
