Pierre Mignoni criticized the video refereeing system after a controversial decision during a rugby match between Toulon and Castres. The error occurred when Castres scored a try that was later disallowed, which significantly impacted Toulon's chances of securing a win. Despite leading for much of the game, Toulon left the field with only a defensive bonus point after 80 minutes. The final score was 29-27 in favor of Castres, who had a tense moment in the closing seconds when Tomás Albornoz attempted a drop kick to win the game, but it missed to the right of the posts. Xavier Sadourny's team, Castres, appeared to benefit from a clear refereeing error caused by a system malfunction. This issue seemed to frustrate Pierre Mignoni, who expressed his concerns during a press conference. The error was particularly significant in the third round of the season, as Toulon, currently second last in the standings with just 3 points, had traveled to Castres hoping to start their season on a winning note. Toulon had the opportunity to extend their lead in the first half when Adam Vargas scored a try, but the video refereeing system failed to review the play. Taul Trainini, a rugby analyst, explained that the try was clearly awarded incorrectly due to the malfunction, which led to frustration among Toulon's coaching staff. Pierre Mignoni was visibly upset during his press conference, emphasizing that the issue was not with the team but with the referees' systems. Pierre Mignoni stated, « I will not make any admission of weakness. The images are there, they should be there, as promised on all matches. If there are no images, there is a problem, but that is not my concern. That is for them (the referees, NDLR) to discuss, you can ask them the question. » Although Toulon did not secure a win, they can take comfort in their defensive performance and the quality of their play against a determined Castres side. The team has restructured a significant portion of their starting lineup, with players like Oliver Cowie and Mikheili Shiosvili performing well in new roles. Mathis Ferté also showed promise in the number 15 position in the absence of key players. Tomás Albornoz stood out with his running game and reliability in kicking, despite missing two attempts at the posts.
