1st match sheet of the season for Minguillon and Humbert
We hadn’t seen them yet since the season kicked off on August 30 in Biarritz. Gauthier Minguillon et Brice Humbert will make their first appearance of the season in the Damiers group this Friday evening in Aurillac. Gauthier Minguillon, who played four seasons at Aurillac, between 2019 and 2023, will return to the Jean Alric stadium as a winger. After a successful autumn tour with the Spanish team, the 30-year-old international gained the trust of his manager to start this meeting. His last official match dates back to a confrontation against Aurillac on May 10 at the Pompidou stadium. Same thing for hooker Brice Humbert, seriously injured last season, and rewarded for his efforts over several weeks to return to his best level. For the rest, we note the returns to the group of Aléo, Milasinovich, Vachon, Marrou, Mawalu, Massot, Bholi, Menzel, Neiceru and Spanderashvili. “a group in which there are players who very rarely disappoint in the engagement sector” underlines Damiers manager Fabien Fortassin, and we know that the Drôme will have to be very present in the combat phases to be able to exist against Aurillac.
