Toulouse Must Do Better – Brennan

Toulouse made it three out of three in Pool 5 in winning 30-9 at Edinburgh Rugby – but the 1996 Heineken Cup champions are far from satisfied.

Toulouse’s Irish international Trevor Brennan summed it all up with his we played a terrible match probably the worst of our season. There is a huge amount of work to be done this week.”

We suffered at the hands of our coach Guy Noves this morning (Monday) in the video session. He was very angry – he had every right to be – and what he said was spot on. Our defence was terrible, our line-out wasn’t up to much and, in general, we played at about 60% of our capabilities.”

It was our two late tries that won us the match but hopefully we can lift our performance on Sunday. We will have to because I am sure Edinburgh will also be looking for a lift.”

No-one in the team is happy with our performance. We got the result but the way we got it is not what we were looking for. I think Sunday will be a totally different game.”

That said, it’s good to be in a position where we have won all three matches and, with Newport getting a win over London Irish, that puts us in a good position if we start performing again.
