    Argentina will be candidate to Organize 2027 World Cup

    If Argentina were to organise the 2027 RWC, they say they would play Pumas vs England in the Malouins. Many are saying there will be more of match outside the stadium LOL France has already sent few exocets II for Argentinian air force ! lol To be more serious, I hope they will organise it...

    Challenge Cup pools 2016/17 season

    Thanks Crocket66... I think that, for Brive, it will mostly depend on the will or not to play seriously the challenge this year.

    I don't totally disagree on what you say, and whatever, we won't know as the question of stars or money is not even posed here lol I remember that when a good player revealed himself with Brive, generally he left for a so-called better team (Laharrague, Palisson to citate some...). Germain...

    England EPS 2016/17 season.

    May I ask when clubs will release the players for the national squad for the autumn tests ? I want to compare with the French side... with chance, Noves should receive the french 1st range players for the second test... (a joke, but not so far from the reality). I hope that France will...

    I think it's about money AND the player you choose to make the team which is important. With money you can have better players. Toulon has built their success on this and it has gone in my way if we analysed the 4 last seasons... it doesn't make all, I agree. At the end, Brive shouldn't do the...

    Vern Cotter to take over from Jake White at Montpellier

    Gaston, I think SC was trying to appease the thing... let's imagine, if you read a thing on "L'equipe", then if you don't know it is wrong, you take it for true, if a foreigner told you the opposite, you will think you're right and you will argue... I don't find anything abnormal on the fact...

    Will the French public accept a foreign coach or one who gained citizenship?

    No problem Gaston :) I wasn't saying Vern will take it, I said he COULD HAVE TAKEN IT... I know that FFR and LNR are comosed with politicians at their head, they only think about themselves and the money they can earn from their position... I was argueing also against your "impossible"... I...

    Will the French public accept a foreign coach or one who gained citizenship?

    I decided to put up thistopic... cause I disagree with you. I think that it can be hard but it can as "impossible is not french"... I think a guy like Vern Cotter could train the french national team and that for many reasons : he is a top coach, he has coached ASM during years, played in...

    Pool 3 Brive Worcester Warriors Newport Gwent Dragons Enesi-STM I hope that this year Brive will play it as the team has already done a good beginning in the Top 14. (4W (1 away in Toulon - 3 at home, la Rochelle, Racing, and Stade Français), 1 Draw (away - Lyon), 2 L (2 away - Grenoble...

    As I have one of my sisters living in Pau, that I have also some basque blood in me (Pau is basque town stolen by Béarnais ! lol ), I will try to answer you. Pau is a city of about 100,000 hab, in the extreme south west of France, near Biarritz (and in the same french departement). I find...

    Gregor Townsend to replace Vern Cotter in June 2017

    Finally, it was because Vern had already chosen to take MHR next year... few days ago, rumours on Canal + TV here were speaking about Montpellier possibility, but as White was doing a good job, the comentators were saying that it would be suprising that White would be fired and Vern would...

    Vern Cotter to take over from Jake White at Montpellier

    To come back on the original post, I am surprised that MHR chose Vern Cotter to replace White's which is obtaining good results. I dislike the way MHR is playing under White's orders. And Cotter's gameplan and style of play are the exact and total opposite. MHR which has very great...

    Brive used to play an entertaining rugby, but like Bayonne, it was the principal resaon of the team descent in Pro D2... Small team (Brive has the smallest budget of Top 14 and few pro D2 teams have more money even) can't play a too opened rugby... BTW, I also saw big teams playing too...

    We have had hard home match again... I mean, we begin bad. But I am agreably surprised that Brive found the resurces to win this match... La rochelle is truly surprising, despite 3 keys players invisible on the ground (especially Brock James in the worst day I've seen for long). MHR has...
