the humble and realized speech of Thomas Ramos, back from selection, before Perpignan
Zapping World Fifteen “I’ve come a long way”, Mathieu Bastareaud revels after his comeback
If he did not take part in the match between Stade Toulousain and LOU Rugby (won by Lyon 21 to 14), Thomas Ramos is again applying for a place in the Haut-Garonne group for the reception of Perpignan. The international period is now over and we have to switch back to this club dynamic, get back into the swing of things after recovering from our three intense matches played with the Blues.
Despite this starting place obtained in each of his three games, Thomas Ramos does not want to arrive and believes himself above everyone. No way. There is competition, very good players in his position(s) (since he can play in 15 or 10). The French international just wants to help his club as much as he can, as he said in a press conference.
I come to the club to bring what I bring since I’ve been playing here. There is no more pressure to put on compared to the return of the tour. When you are absent for a month, you quickly find automatisms when you are well in your club.
We keep a cool head (…) There is nothing to have the melon because I made three matches in the France team. Over a big period ahead of us, we have to look ahead.
From blue to red and black, there is only one step. And this step, Thomas Ramos largely passed it during his week off. Here he is ready to switch back to the national and European meetings that await Stade Toulousain. First of all by erasing at home, against USAP, the defeat suffered against Xavier Garbajosa’s LOU.
to summarize
The international period is over, Thomas Ramos is now ready to switch back to club dynamics. Without claiming to win for the sole reason that he started three times with the Blues.
