Zack Gauthier (left pillar of Grenoble)
“This improved victory was not a foregone conclusion, Agen gave us nothing. We still scared ourselves a little in the second half. But players came back, they brought gas and it ended well. I hope these essays on the ending will be our trademark this season. Already against Montauban, we had started the second half badly. Did we see each other too beautiful? The second half restart is something we will work on. We are now co-leaders, that has a lot of value and flavor for us. But we will have to stay that way all season. »
Sébastien Calvet (SU Agen manager)
“The start of the match was not well controlled on our part. There was the start of a reaction at the end of the first half and a very good reaction at the start of the second. We want to keep in mind that we still had a good spirit in this match in the second half and that it was only 20-10 at the 60th.e. It was a time to grow the group. We had a rotation in the group, this match must make us grow and we must learn good lessons, good evaluations for the future. Now, in Agen, all the professional players have had at least one match to express themselves. And now we have to grow this group. »
Émile Dayral (flyhalf of SU Agen)
“It was a complicated match. Despite a first half where we missed out a little, we could have come out with a lighter score because we had some strong moments, notably with two touches from 5 meters. We came back strong in the second half, we didn't give up, even if the discipline put us in a bit of trouble. We will be able to rely on this good state of mind from the second half for the rest of the season. We come back to 20-10 at the 60ebut the score is heavy at the end of the match. The Pro D2 is a very long championship, everyone can win anywhere. It's not over, we're going to work hard and not give up. »
