Former Ulster centre Chris Farrell and Dubliner James Hart played a role in the win at either end of the 80 minutes. But it was out-half Jonathan Wisniewski who brought about the win, kicking four penalties and converting early tries from Gio Aplon and Steven Setephano before a 52nd minute penalty try made an uphill struggle all the steeper for the star-studded south coast side.

Jackman’s opposite number, Bernard la Porte can take a few obvious consolations despite falling behind Grenoble in the Top14 table. The European champs picked up two bonus points in the defeat thanks to Steffon Armitage’s hat-trick, completed in the 79th minute to take Toulon back within four points. World Cup star Mamuka Gorgodze grounded Toulon’s second try of the day.
