ROG was one of my fav players, and he became an incredible coach. His words on respect and how he reflected on his Toulouse comment show what an amazing man he is.

@pierre4322 11 ай бұрын

yep, french people are watching, and from where I stand I don't think that many people took offense at the mention of Toulouse having a rather average game. That probably makes that defeat all the more cruel, and I think most people, even Mola, recognised that. Congrats for all you've brought to La Rochelle and its players !

@31lafouine 11 ай бұрын

Toulouse having an average game wasn't really the unsportsmanlike part. When he said "Toulouse will go around explaining rugby to everyone again" was uncalled for, sounded bitter and not very classy

I live in France and can reliably inform that La Rochelle are well liked and admired in equal measure. Of all the neutrals I met, most were rooting for Les Rochellais. ☘️

I’ve been following the Super Rugby Southern Hemisphere. When The Crusaders won for the 7th time in a row except for Canterbury, it wasn’t celebrated in NZ. The disdain towards the The Crusaders was shocking!

His coaching maturity and clarity of thought in so few years is incredible. When his time comes coaching Ireland I will love to see what he can do with the team.

@simonwall9769 11 ай бұрын

Called ROG out last week on some of his poor comments in his interview when they lost. Fair play to him for admitting he got it wrong last week. 👏 now let’s see how he reacts when we (Leinster) beat them next season 😉

@lojpfeiop9576 11 ай бұрын

I think sometimes O'Gara gets blamed because he talks to the media in French (which is to his credit) and that comes out harsher than what he meant. From what I could see, just after the finale he said "Arrête de parler que c'était un grand Toulouse" when he should have said "Arrêtez de dire que c'était un grand Toulouse". The difference is subtle but it gets picked up by the media because of the way it sounds. I feel it's unfair because he's a great communicator even if his French is still a bit rough around the edges. In contrast, Sexton spent two seasons in Racing and I never heard him saying anything in French, not even when moaning to the refs!

Hugo Mola had nothing but praise for Stade Rochelais even before the European Cup final he stated that if there was one team capable of beating Leinster in Dublin, it had to be Stade Rochelais. As a French supporter I agree Toulouse was dominated. People who are not familiar with the Top 14 (and Pro D2) don't realize how competitive it is due to both relegation system and the sheer domination of French clubs in both Champions and Challenge Cups.

This means in this year's Top 14 (2022-23) there is no less than: 4x European Champions Cup winners 6x European Challenge Cup winners For a total of 9x European Champions out of 14 (RC Toulon won both Cups) and a staggering 12 European Cup Finalists out of 14. This shows why the Top 14 is the most competitive League in the World. It is not a one or two trick pony league.

O’Gara failed in the top 14, that’s a competition the French still place the highest importance. It’s like us, in Ireland celebrating a grand slam and not winning a World Cup.
