Dame Deborah James has hit another milestone with her Bowelbabe Fund, with donations soaring to an eye-watering £6million.

Toulon 25-16 Saracens A blockbuster performance from Gabin Villière sent Toulon past Saracens to continue this heady season of French success by setting up a Challenge Cup final against Lyon. The 26-year-old, a star of Les Bleus’ Grand Slam, is a remarkably resourceful player – a hugely effective hybrid capable of influencing in numerous facets.

On a crackling, somewhat nostalgic, evening at the Stade Mayol, the last Premiership side left in Europe was beaten. Despite falling behind early on, Saracens had carved out a 13-6 advantage thanks to an opportunistic finish from Ben Earl after Owen Farrell’s penalty had kissed the post. But they were also bettered by the imposing physicality of Toulon, with Springboks totem Eben Etzebeth to the fore, and some canny kicking from … [Read more...] about Gabin Villiere stars as Toulon masterclass sees off Saracens to book Challenge Cup final spot
