RC Toulonnais<\/a> returns to Stade Mayol searching for its first victory of the 2026-27 Top 14 season, but standing in its way is a Stade Rochelais<\/a> squad fresh off one of the biggest comebacks of Round 1.<\/p>\n

Toulon came agonizingly close to opening the season with a road victory, falling 27-26 to Bayonne and leaving with a defensive bonus point. La Rochelle’s opener delivered considerably more drama. Stade Rochelais trailed defending champion Toulouse 24-10 at halftime before storming back for a 30-27 victory, with Antoine Hastoy kicking the winning penalty in the 80th minute.<\/p>\n

Toulon gets an important reinforcement for its home opener as Lewis Ludlam returns to the Starting XV at flanker. Baptiste Serin starts at scrum-half, while Ga\u00ebl Fickou and Huw Jones form the center pairing and Melvyn Jaminet starts at fullback.\u00a0<\/p>\n

La Rochelle is without Nolann Le Garrec, with Valentin Bouju taking over at scrum-half alongside Hastoy. Gr\u00e9gory Alldritt is among the Stade Rochelais replacements.<\/p>\n
