RugbyU: Strike off as Agen travel to Toulon

Agence France-PresseMay 3, 2013 21:45
Agen players called off their pay strike on Friday and agreed to travel to Toulon for their final Top 14 match of the season, AFP's reporter on the ground said. The relegated club's players had refused to train on Thursday and apparently threatened not to play against Toulon on Saturday in protest at unpaid salaries. However, a compromise was reached following a meeting on Friday morning between players, their union and the club's president Alain Tingaud. cor-rap/sva/bc/ps

Precise Porical kicks Stade Francais into Amlin Cup final

April 26, 2013 18:01
PARIS (Reuters) - A late Jerome Porical penalty gave Stade Francais a 25-22 win at Perpignan on Friday and a place in the final of the Amlin Challenge Cup.
