Some big guns make their move before the break for European action.

Two tries from the talismanic scrum half, in an impressive display all round, got Toulouse home last night (Sunday) against a competitive Bayonne. His first, from one of his now trademark backward runs as he seeks space, looked like this:

Normally coaches would not encourage players to run backwards, but Dupont seems to do it to give himself a view of the defence, before sprinting through a hole he has seen. It is definitely something he has brought back from his time playing sevens.

His second, late in the game, just before he was replaced by Paul Graou, was a result of classic inside support of the excellent Ange Capuozzo, who was a threat all night.
