Toulouse largely rotates Toulon in Top 14

At the Vélodrome as regulars

It has become a rugby classic in Marseille. For the tenth time, Toulon and Toulouse face each other at the Vélodrome stadium. The first confrontation dates back to April 18, 2009. The RCT, moved up to the first division a few months earlier, won 14-6 that day thanks in particular to a try from Australian Luke Rooney. “It’s the greatest victory in the history of this club since 1992,” said its president at the time, Mourad Boudjellal. In nine relocations, the results are largely to the advantage of the Varois (eight victories against a single defeat in 2015). Last season, under the eyes of 43,804 spectators, Pierre Mignoni’s players, authors of two tries by Facundo Isa and Baptiste Serin, won (17-6) despite the expulsion of Sergio Parisse in the 33rd minute.
