OSPREYS

So, Stade Français put last week-end’s horror behind them with a win (43-10) against the Ospreys yesterday evening. You could almost feel the desperation in the air as they tried to score the maximum points possible in order to be in with a chance of qualifying for the quarter finals as one of the second best. However, when the score was something like 22-3 – in true English fashion – I started to feel sorry for the underdogs and secretly hoped they would score a try, which they later did! Mirco had a very versatile game, coming on in his usual wing position but also playing scrum-half as well as pushing the scrum in the back row! What a boy! And well done Stade!
