Top 14 will tip over to around 3.15m total crowd after the GF according to this morning's reddit thread
For a game concentrated mainly in the S and SW, the support is remarkable. The FFR teaming up with the Vichy government during WW2 to have RL banned did everyone a favour.

Cracking Top 14 final in sweltering conditions in Paris. Two very good teams knocking lumps off each other. Toulouse deserved it, BB rarely letting them play the Toulouse way. BB had no answer to Jalonch and Willis who were outstanding. Ntamack seems to have bunged his shoulder again.

Jelonch was my MoTM. Such an unsung hero of French rugby, surprising strength into contact. Showed Samu for what he is, an ineffective Wallaby bencher. BB were missing some grafters like Coleman and Swinton. Jalibert had Ntamack's number regardless of the injury, shame that neither will travel south to NZ.

I semi support Toulouse but would've been great for Bordeaux to cinch it. Amazing Toulouse can do it without Dupont and Mauvaka.

Jalonch should always be first name on the French team sheet. He isn't always. As my mate in Paris pointed out, if Toulouse make a final, they win. Something like 11 in a row they've won. He's a Toulouse fan and would have been happy for Bordeaux to win for a change. Ugo Mola's tears at the end said a lot.
