Sorry for the delay on this week but could be interesting....

Pau (1st) take on Dax (15th) at home so should progress with ease. Albi (2nd) are away to Narbonne (14th) and should continue their unbeaten away form. Tarbes (3rd) are away to Bloody Opless (9th) who have Waenga back to orchestrate the backs providing they can get (and hold onto) decent ball for a home win!

Mont de Marsan (4th) are at home to Montauban (5th) in what could be a tight game with MdM having won and lost one at home but Montauban yet to win away. Bourgoin (6th) are away to the whipping boys of Massy (16th) and should continue their undefeated away form.

USAP (7th) unbeaten at home should account for Agen (13th) who are yet to win on the road. Caracassonne (8th) are away to Aurillac (12th) in the last match and should also take the honours to take their first away win points of the season!

 

[Tony Manx]

A very, very fine bonus point win against Tarbes for the Brilliantly Opeful and it must be many a long year since they put 50 points on any team and, indeed, scored SIX tries!!

This win is sweeter as Tarbes have already beaten USAP this season - although that was a home match for them (and they did concede 40 points in their other away game at Beziers!!).

woo, 50 for the BO ! Something to cheer about, first in a loooooong time. I see Pau still is doing as well: Damien Traille over there. He said in an interview he was really happy to return there, his first club I believe, and wanted to play Rugby again. His motivation obviously faded in that last season in the Pays Basque.

 

[gaston le gaff]

WOW BO in a play of position that's a new one but good to see they, are starting to react and scoring points. Maybe they heard Tony was thinking of supporting a TOP 14 team and decided to do some something about it

yep, that must be it !! Surely ! They heard the news that the Godfather Tony Manx wasn't very happy with the results, and made sure they had something to show for last weekend.

 

[gaston le gaff]

You seen any headless horses running around in the Pays Basque???????

Not just last season.....he was poor for two or three seasons and even made sure he was fit enough for international duty (and fees) by not playing for BO for weeks because of a bruised foot!! No loss to BO..............but good he has his hunger back!

You seen any headless horses running around in the Pays Basque???????

We do not use the head of a horse, we use the whole Pottock**


** for those who need to look it up!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pottok....The mascot for Bayonne is one!!!

 

[usap dessie]

Tony , seriously considering giving BO game a swerve next month , not sure I could watch a half hearted away performance from USAP , especially as your boys are finding their feet now !

 

[Tony Manx]

Tony , seriously considering giving BO game a swerve next month , not sure I could watch a half hearted away performance from USAP , especially as your boys are finding their feet now !

HaHa............someone frightened of BO!!!! Have not heard that for years................mind you three home wins (96-46) and two close away losses (40-34) do not make a worried team to me!!

Bearing in mind BO have a similar three home wins (92-45) and two away losses (59-34), then I reckon it could be a cracking match and you should certainly get over there....if only for the topless ladies on the beaches and could still be there on 31st October too!!!

 

[usap dessie]

you might have just convinced me its worth the trip !!!!
