Show Notes
It's rare that the world of French Rugby is the least chaotic thing taking place in our lives but with weddings, surgery and social media bans it's been a tasty time of it at Rosbifs Rugby!
Amidst all that, Toulouse laid down a marker against Bordeaux, Pau brought the pain to Bayonne, and Agen produced arguably the Pro D2 performance of the season to date down in the Alps.
We have an update on the great 'Nationale Points Mystery', there are new stash drops in the Cantal and Lot-et-Garonne, and it's the end of an era for an Toulouse Rugby Institution.
