“We were able to respond collectively…” , the clarification

the essential
In a rough match ending at 12 against 11, the Ruthenois showed character while collecting five points yesterday against Bressols.

“ISome time ago, I read on social networks that you had to come to and give two or three slaps and that was enough… So, today, I invite anyone to come and try, because we know how to respond also when there are provocations. Even if it's not the state of mind we want to give, at a certain moment, if someone comes to look for us, now, we know that they can find us. “These few sweet words are signed by Patrick Furet, the Rodez coach. And sum up well the main lesson to be learned from the new lesson administered by his men, this time at Bressols (44-18), yesterday at Paul-Lignon. rider not really alone however, with things to complain about obviously in the game (“I estimate that we are today at 70% of what we can do“, always according to the technician). But a hell of a tune-up, even with the fists, as for the character and the esprit de corps shown against a team that came to challenge the group runners-up, to say the least fiercely (with one match in hand). ).

Eight cards in the second period

Besides, the boxes fell in a brutal downpour. However, the first period was played rather smoothly, with three tries to two, the visitors taking advantage of two blood and gold oversights while Christophe, all alone on a clever interception, Favre-Trosson, after a succession of body feints like in his finest hours, and Rokva, all in power, had crossed the line to swing in front 27-15 at the break, also thanks to an almost perfect foot from Riols yesterday (7/8).

But after the lemons, the appearance completely changed. Starting point for this transformation into multiple testosterone duels, the start of a general brawl in the 45th minute from which two players, one on each side, were excluded. The referee takes out his yellow or red card ten times in total, to see the game end with 12 players against 11, with simulated scrums. “It's a sport where there are hormones, sometimes they have to express themselvesFuret will still say afterwards, even if his family will also pay for it: We knew that they were not going to come as expiatory victims. But I didn't think it could boil over. I'm not going to shoot the ambulance, but I think sometimes the man in the middle can make things escalate. We just had to control ourselves more, because it's annoying to have this rain of boxes. “And therefore suspensions. At least for the precious pillar Rokva during the next match at Nègrepelisse on Sunday.

“Matches like this, we will have them all season”

We were able to respond collectively, which is a good thing because we will have matches like this all season. And if we want to assume our ambitions, we have to earn themwill say the back Vincent Favre-Trosson, proud of the team, of the volume put in place.” Because indeed, in addition to responding in the fight, the Ruthenois also scored two new tries, each time by Jonathan Bel. First, in the corner, receiving a marvelous pass at the foot of Vaffier (57th ), then a little more than ten minutes later for the offensive bonus which then had to be kept for the piton guys despite the distribution of punishments making any purely sporting analysis very difficult. conclude: “ You have to know how to play teams like that, who slow down the rucks, challenge more, who hang on. It's a great experience, we can do better, but we responded well.
