“Thank you to Stade Toulousain for these two exceptional years with a group of crazy people where I made my dream come true with two historic titles in the same year. These memories will remain engraved forever”, the words of the now ex-scrum half of Stade Toulousain Alexi Balès. Author of 39 matches under the colors of the Red and Black, he formed for two years the pair with Antoine Dupont. In particular, he participated winning the 21ᵉ Shield of Brennus and the 5ᵉ European Cup.
Toulouse will count the coming season as a scrum half, in addition to Dupont, on its rookie Paul Graou and the young Martin Page-Relo. Baptiste Germain was loaned to Biarritz. The 32-year-old will now devote himself to his second passion, wineas a commercial agent.
