2023-09-08 22:38:26

This is the hard blow of the victory against New Zealand (27-13) on Friday. On an opposing scrape and clearance, Blues hooker Julien Marchand injured his left thigh and gave up his place in the 12th minute. “He is suffering from a tear on a hyperextension, I have just seen the slow motion and we can clearly see the movement,” explained Blues coach Fabien Galthié after the match. But I can’t say more at the moment. It’s a hamstring muscle problem, clearly. »

“We may have lost him for a few days, I mean a few days,” he added later at a press conference. When a player gets injured, you’re never happy. » “We hope that it will not be too serious for Julien,” said Blues captain Antoine Dupont, who is also his teammate in Toulouse. It’s not easy when you see a friend get hurt. But the entry of Peato (Mauvaka) shows that we have depth in this position, I am not worried about the rest (of the competition). »
