With Canal +, the French international analyzed Toulon’s defeat against Toulouse: “We were never able to win the match. We had a bad start to the game. We ran after the score. We were better in the second half. We hit a wall. We got exhausted. There’s a lot of work. We let the game go by in the first half. We have to find automatisms. We have to do more, because we have high goals .”
23:15 – Thomas Ramos (back of Toulouse): “The score could have been wider”
At the microphone of Canal +, the French international was happy after the success of his team against Toulon (28-8): “We had a good first period. We had a good advantage. In the second period, we lost a lot of balls. We fell into indiscipline. The score could have been wider if I had been successful on foot. We took the offensive bonus, and that’s good because all the points count in this Top 14 !”
