After three long weeks of break marked by the return of the French XV, the Top 14 returns this weekend. For the 10th meeting of the season, Stade Rochelais travels to the pitch of Castres Olympique in the boiling Pierre-Favre stadium, this Saturday, November 23 (4:30 p.m.) where the Castres are undefeated. Third, the Maritimes can tremble, having only won one match away from home, last September 28 on the Racing 92 field (16-17).
Especially since La Rochelle is faced with a host of absentees in its pack. Four of its pillars are selected for France – Argentina and its third line is also walking on a tightrope between selection, injury and suspension. Left aside by Fabien Galthié, Jonathan Danty could make his return to the center. “It can be an option to bring power to our pack and also to our ground game”explained maritime coach Sébastien Boboul on Thursday.
