The context
The promoted player is struggling for his first steps in the Top 14. Red lantern in the ranking, however, everything is not to be thrown away in the start of the season for the Bretons. Capable of good things, notably against LOU and Castres at La Rabine, the Vannes people won. Beyond the victories, the RCV players do not lack merit, evidenced by their first half last week against UBB where the Bretons led 29 to 7. But also the three defensive bonuses obtained against Racing, Stade Français and Montpellier. A team with little reward but in search of results, which we must be wary of.
Still on the podium as mid-season approaches, Ronan O'Gara's men still remain undefeated on home soil. Coming out defeated last week against Castres, the Maritimes finished the match well and did not come far from the final victory. With a squad that is gradually returning to its internationals, the Yellow and Black are continuing the season with the objective of retaining their place at the end of the first leg. But before thinking about the ranking, the Rochelais concentrate on the opponent of the weekend, a neighbor from the Atlantic.
At the state
1. This will be the first meeting between the two squads. The RCV, having just arrived in the Top 14, continues to learn and grow. Accessing Pro D2 in 2016, the rise of the Bretons has been exceptional since then. A beautiful story that brings back good memories to the Maritimes and their supporters.
