On July 30, Hemani Paea will celebrate its 40th anniversary. An advanced age for the solid Tongien (1.84 m, 115 kg) which may succeed, perhaps, to retire a deserved rugbyic. International on four times, including the first in qualification match for the 2007 World Cup against South Korea, he landed in France at the Marseille stadium.
At the time, the Marseille club fueled great ambitions to settle in the professional world. It will not be the case and Paea starts his professional career in Oyonnax, from 2001 to 2015. With the formation of Ain, he evolves under the leadership of Christophe Urios, alongside in particular Benjamin Urdapilleta. He then signed at the Lou, the Lyon club with which he was appointed best Pro D2 player of the 2015-2016 season.
Full player
He then left for Federal 1 in Mâcon then Villefranche-sur-Saône before arriving in Lormont, where CA Sarlat recovers it. It totals 52 Top 14 and 76 matches of Pro D2 when it comes to the service of blue and black colors. He will take a preponderant place in the Sarladais locker room.
Hemani Paea is a full player. Its power allows it to finish the blows, to cross the line of advantage but also to distribute just with its passage of pass, both right and left. But the boy is discreet, even reserved. It is not the type to draw the blanket.
“So much the better if my experience and my experience can serve the group”
“I am deeply attached to this group. I’m close to Nico [NDLR : Testut]from Toto [Delmas] and Enzo [Mathé]Pure Sarladais who hoisted their level to establish themselves as indisputable holders, says the three-quarter center. Rugby is a collective sport where anything can happen. You have to know how to have fun in the middle of friends. I am attached to the concept of transmission and so much the better if my experience and my experience can serve the group. We gain reciprocal respect. »»
Antoine Delmas, who plays with him at the center, testifies: “Hemani is the dad, a natural leader in the locker room. He speaks little but his word is listened to before and after the matches. When he does not play, we feel a little orphan. He helps us to store confidence and permanently gives us good advice on investments and all aspects of the game. He is close to young people and I have immense respect for him. »»
The match
In play -offs, Sunday, April 27, the Sarladais came to the end of a Oloron team who defended his luck until the end. Led 25-6, the Béarnais put pressure until the end of this match in an irrespirable finish. The season of the case is already successful with quiet support and qualification.
This additional round sees the first two in the hen entering. This is the case of Bagnères-de-Bigorre, which finished the regular seasonal season of the Tyrosse sponvantail. “It is a team that is superior to us in all areas,” says Jonathan Laporte, the Sarladais coach. They are super well equipped in conquest, with an efficient touch, and they develop a strong volume of play. The playing conditions promise to be delicate, which complicates us a little, we who develop a game resolutely based on the offensive. We will have to fight as we have been doing since the start of the season and above all regret anything. Rugby is a collective sport that highlights individualities with a lot of humility. »»
The good surprise comes from the return to the group of Captain Pierre Rousserie, restored after having undergone a concussion during the match against Cognac.
