How much does an 18 year old in a French academy make?

Notes from the Top 14's round 2 (specifically from Le Midi Olympique):
- Reece Hewat was a standout for Pau in their win.
- Staniforth was also a standout for Castres after a 15 month injury layoff. Apparently back to his best for them.
- Joe Powell was diabolical for Montauban in their loss. Long season ahead.
- Unremarkable: Douglas, Banks, Vunivalu, Maddocks
- Injured: Uelese, Hodge, Leota, McIntyre, Petaia, Swinton, Coleman, Simone.

Good to know that our injury plague isn't any worse than overseas.

Petaia is so injured he was playing golf in Maleny this weekend

Damn, such a severe case of can'tbefuckedplayeingyet-itis. Hope he recovers quick!

I believe it's the payformyrehabyoufrenchiecuck flu. Doctor's are expecting it'll eventually turn into a terminal case of fuckingoffbacktotheredsforgood, but you can live a very comfortable life back in Australia with this.

Notes from the Top 14's round 4 (specifically from Le Midi Olympique):

- Banks was outstanding for Montpellier in their rout of Champions Toulouse. With this write up:

"We were told that the Australian was quick, very quick, but we didn't think that quick. Despite his 31 years, the ex-Wallaby has legs of fire as his first half try attested. Confident under the high ball and explosive off the mark, Banks could be the revelation of Montpellier's season".

- Staniforth again got plaudits, led the comp for tackles this weekend. Apparently back to his best.
- Powell has been banished from the starting team, as has seemingly Maddocks.
- Injured: Uelese, Hodge, Leota (though apparently will be back this weekend), McIntyre, Swinton, Coleman, Simone.

Pending how Jorgenson goes on Saturday and Kellaway's health, might be worth getting in touch with Banks for the Northern Hemisphere games.
Would also love to see Maddocks back in Aus, feel like he has a bit to offer. Could be a good get for the Force or Reds.

Reece Hodge would have to be a chance to come back to the Waratahs in 2027 you would think the way his injuries are going. Maybe even earlier how long is he out for?
