Toulon tumble out of the top six

Montpellier beat Castres away in a 1 point victory and progress to the Semis where they will face racing metro in Marseille...WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!

Was great to see it for sure. So many great young players on show from both teams. Montpellier deserved the win but tries... please.

Probably the last time a play-off´s match takes place at a stadium of that size. Castres.... to be in the second division in less than 5 years.
 
Allez Montpellier!!!

Must have half the budget of some of the other teams, just brought players through such as

Ouedraogo, Tomas, Doumayrou and Trinh-Duc

and sign unknown quality such as

Thiéry, Fernández, Bustos Moyano, Fakate, Matadigo, Gorgodze, Jgenti and Nagusa

Timoci Nagusa...has he been good at Montpellier? I've neever seen them play, but Nagusa was a pile of rubbish for Ulster. He ended up in their A team before long,
 
Fernandez and Bustos Moyano were (high-level) amateurs in Argentina, Fakate Matadigo and Jgenti were in Pro D2...Very clever signings.

The signings for next year are very good too:

Thibaul Privat (Clermont), Amorosino (Leicester), JB Peyras, Remy Martin (Bayonne) etc...

Yeah he's been good, very clinical. 10 tries in 18 games...Nothing flash but scores the tries and takes his chances well...To his credit, the Montpellier gameplan and weather make it maybe easier to play well than in Ulster...
 
don't forget Gorgodze, L'Equipe named him in one their top 6 players of the season

how much cheaper do you think his wages are compared to Hayman (who has been sitting on the bench all season), or Sackey and Erinle (rumoured to be signing for Worcester btw) who I have seen have been slaughtered in the French press
