The time played by french international players during the six months that french players spent with France this season (World Cup+6 Nations...) is NOT counted here.

So, this table counts the time in clubs of all french players who're not international! Such a big deal![/size]

That's called propaganda, or disinformation. Or whatever bullshit.
Good point, the table should be adjusted to take into account player time at club.
Why? nobody is asserting that say, Montpellier, are not playing French internationals when they are available to them. Merely that they are not playing French players very much. Which they aren't. And which is the point.

And which, by the by, isn't really covered by French internationals being away.

As an aside Toulon lost around as many players to the world cup as we did. Just not French players. Is that propaganda too? Disinformation?

Tillous-Borde, Michalak, Mermoz, Bastareaud, Guirado, Chiocci were at the World Cup...
Tillous and Michalak came back injuried and out for the season.
So, yes, disinformation and propaganda.

Exactly, an adjusted table would allow for better comparison. I'm not syaing that the one provided isn't useful, I just want more detail.

That's just a fault in your English: you did not lose as many French players as we lost Irish. You lost six French, round about a third of what we did. The elision is good English usage, I would have thought it translated directly into French also.

This is neither disinformation nor is it propaganda. I think your extreme defensiveness speaks for itself.

More detail could help explain why it's happening or not happening, it wouldn't change the fact that the raw data shows it is happening (or not happening).

They are both raw data, just data presented in different ways. The devil with these things is what you want to know and what they want to show you. It would be simple enough to statistically model the effects of player presence or absence on minutes played in that league.

Full time ASM/Racing 27/27

I stopped watching at the 20th. Will only wake up if Montferrand has to go to Barcelona.

Au revoir.

Well that's the maddest end to a rugby match that I have ever seen, bar none. Racing won then Clermont won then Racing won by in the space of five seconds at the end of the 120 minutes. If you do anything this weekend, check out the last few minutes on youtube or wherever. You won't regret it.

If someone can help to understand why Fofana's try is refused and the last one allowed in the same game by the same referee and the same TMO...

Carter had to see Barcelona, Canal+ paied billions for that.

+1, +1. Totally agree, the most extraordinary finish to any competitive game ever played!

Last try awarded

I can't find a pic with the reason to refuse Fofana's one. It probably doesn't exist.

Fair play to Racing for coming from behind to beat Toulon in the final after Machenaud was red carded after 20-odd minutes.

Any match that I've watched that Matthieu Raynal sends someone off, the team with 14 wins. There must be something in that.

Toulon chucking toys out of pram again, they got fined €100,000 for breaking the salary cap in 2014/2015 season :roll:
