Aviron Bayonnais squad injury and roster challenges

Overview

Aviron Bayonnais has faced significant roster challenges due to player availability and injuries. Initially, the club sought to address a shortage of scrum-halves caused by an injury to Léo Coly. To mitigate this, the club entered discussions with veteran Portuguese international Samuel Marques and evaluated approximately fifteen other options to support 19-year-old Baptiste Tilloles.

By late September, the squad's depth issues expanded to include multiple positions ahead of a match against Racing 92. Key absences included captain Arthur Iturria, who is recovering from a hamstring tear, and Tom Spring, who is training individually with an elbow injury. Other unavailable players included Joris Segonds, Arnaud Erbinartegaray, and Pierre Castillon, while Herschel Jantjies was away on international duty.
