This time, the Isère club seemed helpless against the Aix surge and its 7 tries (3 in the first period, 17-3 at the break) on the synthetic turf of the Maurice-David stadium.
Grenoble continues its eighth away defeat this season and remains tenth while awaiting the other matches of this first day of the return phase with in particular the leader Vannes who will want to bounce back on Friday against Mont-de-Marsan after having ended 2025 with a setback in Béziers.
