Bayonne supporters are being spoiled. On social media on Wednesday, the Basque club announced two contract extensions. First that of backs coach Gerard Fraser, through to 2030. He is described as a “crucial member of the Bayonne staff“, according to the statement.

The other extension is that of scrum-half Baptiste Tilloles (19), son of Julien Tilloles, a former Aviron player. The youngster, an under-20 international, is tied to Bayonne until 2029.
