CLERMONT DEFEATED TOULOUSE 24-6 to return to the summit of the French Top 14 after a weekend which saw title rivals Toulon and Stade Français both lose.
The result also extended Toulouse’s miserable record at Stade Marcel-Michelin, where they haven’t won since 2002.
Clermont ran in two tries either side of the break through French international centres Aurélien Rougerie and Wesley Fofana with fly-half Camille Lopez kicking 14 points.
Toby Flood and Luke McAlister booted over a penalty apiece for Toulouse who had also lost the season’s first meeting between the teams 13-9.
Jaysus… Did Toulouse not just play on Sunday.. And then again on Tuesday?
Nope just came up in my newsfeed as most recent! #Fail
