Reigning champions of France and Europe, Stade Toulousain does not display the same influence this season. Often deprived of their internationals, who were playing in the Six Nations Tournament, the Haut-Garonnais started the year 2022 with 7 defeats in 9 games in all competitions. Enough to tumble to 5th place in the Top 14, nevertheless sufficient to climb to the final phase.
On the European scene, the observation is not so much more flattering since Toulouse narrowly qualified in the round of 16 by finishing 7th in their pool on equal points with Stade Français (8th) and Cardiff (9th).
