The day after Biarritz’s feat in Béziers, Dax, the new leader, Brive, Grenoble and Colomiers followed in the footsteps of the Biarritz team by also winning their second match of the season, Friday during the 2nd day of Pro D2. Nice, for its part, signed the first victory in its history in the division by creating a sensation on the pitch at Agen.
Provence, Biarritz, Soyaux-Angoulême, Colomiers, Dax, Grenoble, Béziers and Brive. At the dawn of the 2nd day of Pro D2, scheduled for Thursday and Friday, eight teams could boast of having started their season with a victory and therefore aspire to a second success at the same time. To do this, it was necessary to confirm, at home for some and away for others. The fact remains that of these eight winners of the opening day, only five managed to continue. These are Dax, the new leader, Brive, Grenoble, Biarritz and Colomiers, who also appear in this order in the ranking. The Biarrots had set an example on Thursday in an advanced match by achieving the feat of knocking Béziers out of the gate on their own turf while the Biterrois had only lost one match at home last season while the BO had only won two away. The trip to the Valence-Romans pitch also smiled on Friday on the Dacquois, even if they had to wait until the very last moments and two penalties from Oltmann then Cerisier to grab the stake (32-29). The leader was then called Brive, who managed to confirm on the pitch of Soyaux-Angoulême (28-25) their success against Oyonnax (who recovered by beating Nevers on Friday), one of the favorites for the title, during the first day. Colomiers also won in pain (22-19). Clearly ahead at half-time (13-6) against Aurillac at home, the Columérins gave themselves a big scare before breathing again, there too at the very end of the match, on a penalty from De La Vega, who came to play the “Zorro” for an evening.

Facing Provence in front of their home crowd, one of the eight winning teams at the start of the season but also a serious contender for promotion, Grenoble also won with difficulty (15-12). This clash on the 2nd day seemed to be heading towards a victory for the Provençaux and Thomas Salles in Isère before Sam Davies, on two penalties, the last of which was at the siren, tipped the balance in the direction of FCG. Nice, the promoted team, had not had the chance to win last week. However, the performance of the Azuréens against Béziers (13-9 victory for the Biterrois) suggested that we would not have to wait long to see the newcomer sign its very first victory in its history in Pro D2. It happened on Friday in Agen, where Nice managed to create a sensation by bringing down (16-12) the former Top 14 resident on its home turf. Benregel, one of the Nice heroes of the evening, scored his team’s only try in the first half of this game. On its new turf in Sapiac, Montauban, for its part, left Mont-de-Marsan no chance (35-19). Next week, five teams will try to make it three.
