It probably wasn’t the best match of last weekend, but CSBJ’s 16-9 win in Nice said a lot about Isérois at the start of the season. Faced with their annoyance in recent seasons (six defeats in the last seven matches up to this Saturday), the men of Sébastien Tillous-Borde and Grégoire Pintiaux have unlined the rugby that adorns their end-of-summer calling card.
A “fierce defense”, as the coach of the Berjallian attackers describes it, self-denial and patience. We saw him with the only goal of the game recorded in one of their rare forays into the Nice field a few seconds after a yellow card inflicted on the Azzurri. The welcome from Dax – also undefeated who beat SOC – this Saturday at the Rajon will allow us to learn more about this once again attractive CSBJ.

AND THE FLOP
Albi is not there yet
The Tarnais are struggling to get back on track. Despite a quiet start to the championship with the two promoted to the menu in quick succession, Mathieu Bonello’s players have already suffered two defeats in three days. The last was suffered on the field of Hyères-Carqueiranne (19-13) who is already arousing much concern for the opponents for his first season in the national team.
Despite a good start, the SCA lowered the flag against the Varois who were confident in their strength. After three days the bill is gone for the Tarnais who have 6 small points and who will receive Narbonne this weekend.

The fact of the weekend
Bourg escapes the worst
The weekend surprise almost came from Cognac. The team led by Fabrice Landreau, who survived in extremis last season, gave Bourg-en-Bresse a hard time, who snatched the victory on the wire (27-26).
The Charentais were leading 21-14 at half-time before seeing former Pro D2 residents at a disadvantage thanks to a converted try from Kapanadze. Cognac scored a last try right at the end of the match but didn’t transform it, missing a small point from the Violets. The UCS remains penultimate in the national team despite this defensive bonus.

THE NUMBER
95/29
It’s not about playing the license plate game. But with 95 points scored and only 29 conceded, the VRDR is the best attack and the best defense of the national team after three days. Sure, the Drôme calendar has been pretty lenient so far, but this resounding start to the season combined with the disappointing or complicated start of some favorites (Bourg, Albi) has already allowed VRDR to establish itself as a candidate for the Pro D2.
