"We'll only play big teams at home"

How did you enjoy this litlle break ?

"Seasons are long. It allows us to think about someting else, travel for some of us. Et to get an extra motivation pour that challenge and the last eleven games. It is a second part of the season that will be very jerky: we play 3 games, we have a week-end off, we play 2 games, we have a week-end off. When we can play game after game, we are better. But, it is like that. In this block of three games, we only play once at home. So this game is very important."

This two week-ends without playing allowed you to work on some aspects of your game?

"Yes. It allowed us to work physically, to have more juice for the end of the game. And then, work on litlle things where we were not good during the last games. To try to erase them for the next ones."

You will host la Rochelle, third of the Top 14.

"We know that we will host almost only big teams at home. Now, it is like that. We have to play them all. It is alway a motivation to play a big team like la Rochelle, who has very few failings and a lot of qualities. It gives us a lot of motivation."
