"Have another level than on the previous block"

Lucas Dupont deciphers the stakes of the match against Rouen and the last block of 2019, which will end with Oyonnax's reception at the Stade des Alpes

The conditions are expected to be icy on Friday evening at the Stade des Alpes.

"Sure... It won't be as bad as what the Espoirs experienced last Sunday. I think, I don't think it's raining tomorrow. It is true that the lawn of the Stade des Alpes is still fine. Even when it rains a lot, the terrain remains relatively hard. But, yes, we'll have to try to warm up in the rucks. Because it's going to be cold tomorrow. »

How are you approaching the match against Rouen?

"I hope we will approach it with great humility. Because, the last block, it was not good. Or maybe it was really the minimum union. Winning twice at home, without being extraordinary, far from it. And then we got our mouths broken a little bit twice outside. So we hope to make a better block. And it starts tomorrow night against Rouen. Where we have to be serious, not drop the ball and have a different level of play than on the last block. »

You will end the year with a mini-block of 3 games....

"It's true that it's a block that's important, because it's a bit of a hinge. Because it's the end of the first leg games. And then, above all, we receive Oyonnax on December 19. The objective is that before this match, we can be first in case of victory against Oyonnax. It goes through victories before. »
