[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1114735, member: 45598"] They average about 2.5k more in attendance and have the biggest TV deal in rugby, they all own their own stadium as well if I'm not mistaken (don't knowif this is the case with prem clubs). Rugby is the South of France's most popular sport which is a huge advantage. I couldn't tell you if these clubs are sustainable, some definitely seem to be billionaire's playthings, but considering France have had a fully professional second division for years I'd guess that they are for the most part.
