The center of Racing 92 wanted to defend his teammate. If he does not like the gesture, he considers the criticism disproportionate.


In a long interview with RMC Sport, Gaël Fickou came to the rescue of his teammate and friend Teddy Thomas, under fire from critics since Sunday evening and his chambering gestures towards his opponents.

Honestly, I don't think he wanted to disrespect the Bordelais,” argues the center of Racing 92 and the XV of France.

It's a gesture like he can do.

It is his character.

I saw in the press that everyone is igniting him.

It's Teddy.

It attracts a lot of light and many people dream of seeing it fall.

Each time, it's disproportionate on him.

It is true that in itself, he should not make this gesture.

We are not going to say that he is right to do it, but we are making cases when there have been much worse things ...

Gaël Fickou regrets the behavior of his friend but demands that the page be turned quickly.

He shouldn't do it, that's right.

It has no place in rugby, a sport with a lot of humility and respect for the opponent.

But it can sometimes happen to lose track and do something stupid.

He apologized.

Basta, and we move on.

There was no death of a man, he did not spit on someone, he did not speak badly to someone.

In itself, he did not do anything very serious.

This is not good, but it is not the business of the century either.

We have to move on quickly.

He apologized and I think he regrets having stayed in the room.
