The Top14 semifinals begin this evening with Toulouse v La Rochelle. Jack Nowell will be on the wing for La Rochelle and Jack Willis at 7 and Blair Kinghorn 14 for Toulouse. Tomorrow evening will see Stade Français play Bordeaux/ Bègles and the only Brit on show will be Marchant for SF.
Is Zach Henry injured?
Don’t know, although the other fly half Segonds has been in impressive form recently.
Segonds misses a conversion at the death to take it to extra time. Harsh.
Nowell and Willis both picked up yellow cards in the other semi final where La Rochelle had both props red carded.
Only two Brits in tomorrow evening's Top14 final between Toulouse and Bordeaux/Bègles in Marseille, Jack Willis and Blair Kinghorn, who are both in the Toulouse starting XV.
Nice to see him going so well again. A while back he was being talked about as a possible England option. Another season like this one and then a move back to the Prem might start that chat again.

he was great for a couple of seasons for Exeter, but fell away a bit. His goal kicking in that great period was absolutely top of the tree, and his skill set is very good, plus he's quick. I like him a lot. Puja hates him though

Absolutely detest him
Unsurprising that he's doing well - he's a very good club fly-half and, especially when surrounded by quality, can look like a great club fly-half.
I'll still be astonished if he ever gets an England cap though. I'm assuming he has not even an iota of Scots heritage from the fact that he's not already in their touring squads?

If Pollard doesn't sign a new deal at Tigers then Simmonds would be high on my list of potential replacements.

20 minutes into the Top14 final and Jack Willis is “énorme”! according to the French commentator. Toulouse 22- Bordeaux/Bègles 3.
