XV of France: South Africa, the ultimate test of physical power for the Blues

“Pull it towards you! Drop it! The voice of William Servat rises on the Marcoussis training ground. Under the eyes of the coach in charge of the conquest of the Blues, the ex-captain Charles Ollivon is working to clean up around the ball. The muscles of the third line of Toulon are activated, and the other Blues launched in the same exercise during Tuesday’s session are sweating profusely. The bodies are preparing for the weekend and they are doing well: in Marseille on Saturday evening, they will take on kilos and kilos of Springboks.
