If the UBB ended its black series of five losses this Saturday, it owes it to its collective, to the energy regained after a week of vacation but also to the talent of its two internationals.
Returning to the club on Monday, two days after achieving the Grand Slam with the XV of France, Maxime Lucu and Cameron Woki improved a team that came to Paris to resume its march forward.

The scrum half, who had played little during the Tournament, delivered an almost perfect copy. In animation, in management and also against the poles with 16 points at 6 out of 9.
