Louis Bielle-Biarrey’s package for the semi-final against Toulon goes badly in Bordeaux, where the president and the coach pointed his playing time to the French team.
The UBB recorded a very bad news as it approaches its Top 14 semi-final against Toulon on Saturday. If Maxime Lucu and Romain Buros, on the side from the Champions Cup final against Northampton, should be operational for the shock against the RCT, Louis Bielle-Biarrey will however miss the call. Consequence of the big tackle suffered in the last minutes of the match against Vannes on June 7.
Shaken by the burden of Fijien Filipo Nakosi, LBB has still not found all of its physical means and is too fair to claim a top 14 semi-final. This passing before the independent doctor responsible for making him pass the HIA3 protocol following the shock would not have been conclusive and the precautionary principle won. To the chagrin of the strong men of the UBB, who did not hesitate to castigate his playing time with the French team this season.
“We lose one of the best players of the year all competitions and a centerpiece from the UBB. Louis is our best test marker and our X factor who has set out a lot of situations. It is also perhaps the consequence of a high playing time in a club and in the French team, with whom he has absolutely played everything ”, thus entrusted Laurent Marti, the Bordeaux president in the columns of The team.
“We will have to ask the question of the rest that we give it”
And the bell sound was the same in Yannick Bru’s mouth on Monday, when talking about the Bielle-Biarrey case.
“We must not forget that he is a player who will be 22 years old and who, for two years, tirelessly accumulates minutes and minutes of play, and personal successes. You have to be reasonable with him, he said. We know that it is not a robot and that for a while, it has been overexposed. »»
“We at the UBB, we try to protect it, He continued, clearly suggesting that this was not the case everywhere, and therefore in the French team. We give him the rest time he needs and each time we can put him at rest, we do it. It’s not simple with Louis at the moment and at some point, we will have to ask the question of the rest given to him. Because it is estimated that the number of minutes he has played this year and the number of shocks he receives are more impactful than for others. »»
