The pre-match with Denis Couslon

  • Denis Coulson

Dominated in scrum in Toulon, Denis Coulson wants to show another face of the Grenoble pack.

What feedback after the difficulties melee in Toulon?

"It's always difficult to play at Mayol, if you're below in conquest. Of course, it was very difficult at scurm against one of the best of the Top 14, against Levan Chilachava. It was very hard. But we have fixed things, we have done a lot of work this week. We looked at many videos of the match against Toulon during the week. Although it was not easy, it was necessary. We must be more rigorous if we want to progress. "

What aspects of the scrum were particularly worked?

"The tactics, of course. But also the attitude when we arrive on conquest, not just melee, but the line-outs, the rucks, etc. We worked a lot: the tactics, the aggressiveness, the strategy that we will put up against Clermont. "

What is the way to beat a team like Clermont?

"It's a secret (laughs!) It's always a big challenge against Clermont. We are in a position that is not very comfortable, not very easy. We are in the hard, not easy, but we work a lot, and we'll see what we can do Saturday. "

Returns Grice, Aplon, Wisniewski, Roodt, Edwards, necessarily do good?

"It's good to see players like that back in the game. This is not a reason for us to say that we will win, because the wounded are back. But it's good to see the big stars of the club back, it's nice. "
