Last Sunday, Vienne defeated Grasse to reach the semi-final of the competition, which continues until late June!!!! Strasbourg await. The four semi-finalists are promoted so Vienne is back in Fed. One after a season in the lower division...
A ten-minute cameo from Shorty wasn't enough to prevent a Vienne defeat!

How did he get on with the Exiles this year does anyone know? Must have done OK to get the call-up
Looks like he's done pretty well, had a slow start due to injury rehab. but took his chances when they came and played himself into first team.

Matthew jarvis leaves ealing after helping them to promotion.
eoghan grace and plymouth get relegated, players havent been signed yet but he wasnt one of the 11 let go. he won Herald Player of the Year Award.
Looks like barry faammmmussiiilli (wrong spelling) has left montpelliar in october but might be retired now due to neck injury. need to get this conformed as the translated french article i was reading didnt make much sense.
biggest news, peter bracken has been spotted playing with Connacht's only rugby league team, the galway tribesmen who play in the munster divison of the league. keep an eye of for them, they made the munster final last season and only to lose to a very good limerick team who went on to win the all ireland rugby league
