Marathon runner, Grégory Alldritt is going to do a little competition treatment. As indicated this Monday by Sud Ouest, number 8 agreed with the management of Stade Rochelais to resume later than his comrades from the France team. Information that has been confirmed to us. His return to competition should not take place until next January.
This decision was motivated by the state of physical and mental wear and tear of the player, who has played a series of matches and competitions in recent seasons. During the 2022-2023 financial year, Alldritt, whose game is particularly committed and energy-intensive, took part in 31 matches (28 starts, 2129 minutes of play in total) between his club and the fifteen of France. An indisputable holder in the selection, the player had already mentioned “a big break” in the wake of the elimination of the Blues in the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
The captain of Stade Rochelais should therefore miss several Top 14 matches but also the Champions Cup, the reception of Leinster and the trip to the Stormers being planned for December (the 10th and 16th).
But he could apply for the next Six Nations Tournament (February 2 to March 16). In his absence from the club, Judicaël Cancoriet (during the first three matches of the season) then Yoan Tanga (Sunday, against Castres) had played as third-line center.
