    1000 subs what the heck? Thanks so much for the support everyone!
    Jumping into our first french Rugby player today with Antoine Dupont. Did not realize that someone outside of the Springboks and All Blacks was generally considered to be the best player alive right now, and one of the best all-time, wild. Going to need to check out more of him for sure down the line and watch him play at the Olympics. Who's up next?

    The pace, the balance, the upper core body strength, the vision - one of the best number 9s that I can remember

    Du Pont is that critical in the French team... he broke his cheekbone in a 2023 world cup pool match and underwent surgery and while most players would have still been off, he was cleared to play the world cup quarter final against South Africa..

      His choice, that would have been very unfair to him to miss the event if he had a chance to play. The team was fine even without him.

      He is essential because Lucu is not the best on the bench, le Garrec or Jeaunneau are really talented and could take his place (of course they're not as good as him)

    Antoine Dupont est tout simplement l’un des meilleurs joueurs du monde. D’ailleurs élu à ce titre en 2021 par World Rugby !

    You should watch the highlights of France winning the LA Sevens. It was their first World Series win since 2005. Dupont was playing in only his second tournament. The fitness demands of 7s are very different to 15s. Since there is so much space to cover, the fitness training is brutal. Speed is also less of a benefit, because everyone who plays 7s is fast.
    There aren’t that many players who could play both forms at the highest level, but Dupont is definitely one of those. His skillset is so strong, and he has so much physical power, he’s impossible to stop.

    12:15: recent rule: Kick from behind the 50, to the opponents' 22, get the possession in the lineout back...Fantastic!
    Toulouse, same pronunciation as "To lose"... 😁

    • @joachimmahoudeaux8619

      Exactly, we just call that a 50/22. It’s in metric, so the middle of the 100m long pitch is at 50m, and the 22m line is calculated from the try/touchdown line. In that area you can do a mark on opponent’s kick or you can kick directly in line-out without having the ball to touch the inside field before. So this 22m line is very strategic in rugby.

    Antoine is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best 9 in the World. One look at the French XV performances since his absence, on Olympic 7's duty, speaks volumes. He rules the roost 🏴‍☠☘

      We can still argue that Toulouse did pretty well when he hasn't played much for the club this year.

    His rugby IQ is off the charts to support his unbelievable abilities as a rugby player. And all that while being the nicest on the pitch , Super Dupont is our petit général ❤ 🇫🇷 the level of confidence you get when he s on the pitch…

    Dupont is crazy good, i have never seen a french team as good as the 2023 world cup squad with Dupont at 9

    • @FromAgen
      @FromAgen 2 місяці тому +2

      A French team without some important players in its squad like Marchand (hooker), Ntamack (fly-half), Meafou (Lock), Colombe (Prop) or Le Garrec ( scrum-half) the best alternative to Dupont.

    • @KernowekTim
      @KernowekTim 2 місяці тому

      Le Garrec is playing this week-end. But ,yes, Les Bleus miss the Ntamack/Dupont axis. I hope your current 9/10 do a top job and I hope France beat the English on Saturday.@@FromAgen

    pps, Eamonn. You have over one thousand subscribers so soon because to have earned them well. Your soft-spoken politeness and 'need to know' dimension is outstanding, in my opinion.

  • @4partharmony208
    @4partharmony208 2 місяці тому +7

    See if you can find a clip of his tackle against Ireland in last year's 6 nations. Single-handedly stopped a dead-to-rights try and is legit more impressive than any of these highlights

      Just watched it. Wow what a play. I really need to do a video on defensive plays soon. I keep forgetting ha.

  • @rittherugger160
    @rittherugger160 2 місяці тому +3

    The scrumhalf by default should be at least the second or third guy at EVERY tackle. I wouldn't say they are 'the quarterback" of rugby because there is no position in rugby that is the sole commander of play but when pairing with a Flyhalf it is quite similar.
    Though they do score often their job description is more that they distribute the ball to someone else in position to do so. They are more a point guard than a quarterback.

    Without doubt the most talented player in modern rugby

    Antoine Dupont don't play for the 6 nations championship this year, because he joined the french seven team to prepare the Olympic games.

    As a comparison for a hockey fan, Dupont has the same impact as Gretzky had on his team and set the standard for players in his position for many years to come.

    Sorry, for them.

  • @justinbiebre6086
    @justinbiebre6086 Місяць тому +3

    Your pronunciation in french is not so bad. If you want to say ''Toulouse'' correctly say ''to lose''...but in fact it's one of the best rugby team in Europe!

    • @EamonnReacts
      @EamonnReacts  Місяць тому +1

      I think someone mentioned that to me earlier and I messed it up again ha. Yeah I learned some french in school but its been a while. My sister is fluent. Has been living in France for awhile.

    It's very difficult to "qualify" him, so "out of the ordinary" is this guy. He "smells" rugby, and breathes it out of every pore, to the point of believing that his baby bottle was shaped like a rugby ball!
    He's got the physique, the vision and the intelligence to play the game.
    It will be interesting to see him play something other than XV rugby at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, during the "SEVEN".
