Concern for Atonio and Bourgarit before the Six Nations Tournament

There were a lot missing (Ramos, Dupont, Jelonch, Cros, Flament, Marchand, Danty…) but there were still many internationals on the pitch on Saturday, a month before the start of the Six Nations Tournament (February 4 – March 18). And the evening did not give birth to only good news, starting with the injuries of Pierre Bourgarit (left knee, released in the 21st) and Uini Atonio (right knee, 37th).

If the first, seen on a training bike in the second period, is far enough in the hierarchy of tricolor hookers, the state of health of the incumbent right pillar will be closely scrutinized by the staff of the Blues.

He will undergo an MRI on Tuesday, while Bourgarit will be examined on Monday. No sore among the Toulouse internationals but an evening spent suffering and which did not help to highlight Romain Ntamack, Matthis Lebel, Pierre-Louis Barassi and Melvyn Jaminet, discreet. The opener even received the first yellow card of his career in the Top 14, for a dangerous tackle on Paul Boudehent (31st).

Same price in the 55th for the hooker Peato Mauvaka, who will not keep a good memory of his captaincy as the Toulouse conquest has suffered. Finally, the La Rochelle captain Grégory Alldritt, beaming until then, ended his match badly with a yellow (71st). It was not the evening of the Blues.
