On the ground, the victory of Stade Toulousain does not suffer from any dispute. Saturday evening in Brive, Ugo Mola’s men were not worried despite the red card received by Faumuina in the 17th minute.
14 seconds that can be expensive?
A few minutes from the end of the match, a triple change is made on the Toulouse side. Except that only two players leave while Holmes, Page-Relo and Baille enter. Romain Ntamack will come out after a Brive action. Toulouse will have played 14 seconds to 15 when it was supposed to evolve in numerical inferiority.
This small incident had no consequences on the game or the score of the match but our colleagues from Rugbyrama recall that there was a precedent a few months ago in National during a match between Nice and Narbonne. A few seconds with 16 players against 15 which had resulted in replaying the match.
If such a decision had to be made, it would reshuffle the cards in the race for the Top 6 but also in the race for maintenance. The Brivistes struggle with Perpignan to avoid the place of barrage.
The CAB filed a complaint
The National Rugby League confirmed to AFP this Sunday that the Corrèze club had indeed filed a complaint after the meeting. The Disciplinary Committee will meet this week to deal with the case.
