this guy has always sounded like a bit of an idiot to me, not this time but previous times
he is arguably the biggest crap talker in French rugby, for example he once said Bakkies Botha "hasn't signed with us" (despite it being a known fact at the time) only to unveil him the following weekend, also he once said Ma'a Nonu signed for Montpellier which was a load of crap as well
and just today he said that the Sheridan transfer was "just speculation", when it is obviously true
I don't think he knows that much about rugby either, judging by the signings he made on reputation, Henson and Mason both didn't fit in well at Toulon (and the coaches didn't want either of them)
also tried to threaten the LNR by saying he will quit rugby if they dare ban him
