It has not been the best of starts to the season for once-bestriding-European-rugby-like-a-Colossus Toulon. Some injuries and a near-complete loss of scoring ability has left them at the end of the table they’d rather not be at, and frantically looking for new recruits to bolster their squad.
But, as I point out for Rugby Pass…
It’s not panic. Toulon, 11th in the Top 14 after the first six weeks of the season, have found two of the five players they are – quickly, but definitely not frantically – looking to recruit.
