Nicolas very lucky to get away without a yellow card there for not rolling away. A blatant act of killing the ball 5 metres from their own would have earned him 10 minutes in the bin on a different night. Wilkinson does makes it 3 from 3

Great effort from Courrent, 46 metres out as Botha is penalised for holding on at the base of the ruck. Good response from Grenoble

Wilkinson accurate once again with the boot as Toulon take the lead for the first time!

Toulon bounce right back! Wilkinson is skillful and energetic at 10 and controls the phases well as Toulon make their way into opposition 22. Grenoble penalised for offside and Wilko makes no mistakes

Grenoble start the better team and look quite dangerous. They earn a penalty for holding on inside the Toulon 22 which Courrent converts into the first 3 points of the game!

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Top 14 Rugby with Grenoble playing host to Toulon at the Stade des Alpes. The home side enter the game on the back of a heavy loss to last year’s champions, Castre, in what was a very poor performance from them last weekend. It was a pity to see this happen to a team that had bagged a momentum building victory against a talented Stade side only seven days previously. They face arguably the toughest of all opposition today as they go up against a star-studded Toulon outfit. The visitors come into the weekend having taking Racing to the cleaners on their previous outing. A confidence boosting victory for the French giants who only scrapped by Biarritz in the opening round of the competition. Can Grenoble upset the odds and nab a big win here today? Stay tuned to find out. I hope you enjoy this evening’s coverage!
