Jaminet scores hat-trick against Pau, reigniting his form and Toulon's performance.
Fly-half scores hat-trick
Facing Pau at the end of quai Lafontan, the international fly-half excelled by scoring three tries in the first half, achieving his first professional career hat-trick and accumulating 26 points in the match.Player excluded earlier
Mayol had anticipated this performance, as the 27-year-old fly-half had been excluded from the Toulon group against Racing 92 on October 10 due to a disappointing start to the season. However, he responded brilliantly against Pau on Saturday evening.Regaining form
Last week in Edinburgh, the native of Hyères had already regained form by scoring 22 of the 27 points for RCT. This performance against Pau was expected to confirm his resurgence.Key moments in the match
In the 9th, 22nd, and 33rd minutes, the fly-half found the gap, demonstrating sharp decision-making, perfectly attacked spaces, and an ability to appear in the right place. This indicated a player who had regained his hunger.Positive attitude
Beyond the statistics, his attitude was notable. Always well positioned, full of desire, and clearly liberated, Jaminet has regained the confidence that makes him a player capable of turning a match. Although he has not yet achieved 100% accuracy in front of goal (2 failures), his influence in the game has largely compensated for these inaccuracies.Team performance
Instead of closing himself in doubt, the French international worked, accepted the decision of his staff, and transformed his frustration into positive energy. He delivered a performance in the image of his team, in the style of a champion.RCT's progress
Although not very spectacular, the RCT has regained some bite, application, and efficiency against Pau. For a bonus point win of 41 to 20, sprinkled with an offensive bonus.Future outlook
With 48 points scored in two matches, the former Toulon player is regaining his best form at the ideal moment. Confirming the evidence of Mayol: when Jaminet goes, it is generally all of Toulon that goes. Let's hope it lasts.
