"I have one regret, I never played with him": Pierre Mignoni and the RCT players pay tribute to the legend Ma'a Nonu

"I have one regret, I never played with him": Pierre Mignoni and the RCT players pay tribute to the legend Ma'a Nonu

In the 78th minute, Toulon led 40 to 23 against Castres and headed into the halfway stage. That's when the New Zealander roared. Served out of the scrum five meters from the line by Ben White, the All Blacks legend, at 43 years and 24 days old, pierced the Castres defence to the in-goal area. A powerful try, in his style.

It didn't take much more to send the harbor and his teammates into a frenzy of joy. In the post-match press conference, RCT rugby director Pierre Mignoni, flanker Esteban Abadie and center Jérémy Sinzelle paid a heartfelt tribute to their teammate who, thanks to his "professionalism," "brings a lot to the group."
