Latest Updates
Clermont were beaten by Lyon 43-24 on Saturday night, their first loss in their last 3 games.
Pio Muarua started at Number 8 for the 2nd time this season. He made 11 carries for 38 metres with a fairly quiet defensive day with a handful of tackles and 1 turnover won.
Clermont drop to 11th position in what has been one of the closest competitions in years. Despite their placing, they are only 3 points outside the top 6 and 3 wins from 1st place.
Clermont put the competition on alert after a thorough drubbing of a Castres side that was running hot on the back of 3 straight wins.
Pio Muarua started at Number 8, the first starting jumper in the Top 14 despite a couple of games for Agen nearly a decade ago now.
It was a disruptive first game for the Yasawa native, called off a couple a times in the game and put back into the action on both occasions. On his final stint however he powered over from close range, reaching over the tryline to plant the ball down and almost losing it in the process.
Nevertheless the try stood and it was a solid first start for the powerful backrower in what turned out to be a big night for the home side, coming away with a 63-14 win. Its his first try in the competition and also for his new club.
For the third consecutive year Grenoble have lost their access match into the Top 14, this time against Perpignan 11-13. Muarua made his return to the side and also started at Number 8. He had a couple of drops in the first half but was solid all-round.
The match also serves as his final match for the club as he joins Clermont next season.
