Quote ="Forever Blue and white"Having spoken To my Dad and brother who have just got back from Toulouse I am shocked at just how hot it was it was 38c so I take back what I said and now understand why the team faded in the 2nd half. Good win in very difficult conditions.'"
nah,it was actually 30°C in the shade - that's official.Still pretty warm though and well above the seasonal norm of about 22°C.
Just for the record at the Press Conference after the game I asked MC that very question ie "do you think the hot conditions affected the players performance in the second half ?"
Matt replied "no,not at all,it was more a case of Toulouse playing better and us not keeping up the momentum of the first half "
remember,it was the same conditions for both sides and TO didn't seem to suffer from the conditions either.
The second half was played in about 25°C when the sun went over the far stand.
well played Fax - good luck in the semis
