MC Alger : Annoncé au poste de DTS, Ameur Mansoul ne viendra pas
Annoncé au poste de nouveau directeur technique sportif (DTS) du Mouloudia d’Alger, Ameur Mansoul ne viendra finalement pas. Le club algérois a annoncé, à travers un communiqué, que les deux parties ne se sont pas parvenues à un accord.
Dans un communiqué, la direction du MC Alger a annoncé, cet après-midi, qu’elle n’est pas parvenue à un accord avec Ameur Mansoul pour occuper le poste de directeur technique sportif (DTS) et de porte-parole du club algérois.
Dans le même communiqué, la direction précise que dans un premier temps, les deux parties ont pu parvenir à un accord de principe de départ, avant que Mansoul ne remette en question certains aspects du projet de contrat de travail qui lui a été soumis, notamment les objectifs assignés et le cadre de travail, ainsi que les conditions d’évolution conformément aux normes et procédures en vigueur au sein de la société par actions.
Le concerné a émis certaines réserves qui ont fait l’objet de nouvelles tractations, mais sans que celles-ci n’aboutissent à un accord final, amenant les deux parties à quitter la table des négociations à l’amiable.
Par ailleurs, il y a lieu de rappeler que la venue d’Ameur Mansoul, ancien directeur technique national (DTN) de la fédération algérienne de football (FAF) et ex-DTS du CS Constantine, n’a pas réussi à faire l’unanimité autour de sa personne, notamment auprès des supporters qui ont mis une forte pression sur les dirigeants pour empêcher le nouveau président du conseil d’administration Mohamed Arabi Yakoubi.
De plus, l’ancien président Hakim Hadj Redjem, membre temporaire du conseil d’administration de la SSA/Le Doyen a mis son veto contre l’engagement de Mansoul, laissant du coup la porte ouverte à d’autres candidatures.

SA clubs force Irish star to up his game
Munster playmaker JJ Hanrahan says South African teams have brought a new level of physicality and pace to the URC, making every cross-continent clash demanding.
One of the competition’s most seasoned campaigners has described the SA clubs as “unbelievably challenging” but “a great addition”.
This is the sixth year that the Stormers, Bulls, Sharks and Lions have been involved in the multi-nation tournament. Overall, they have claimed 162 wins in ‘north vs south’ matches, compared with 94 northern wins.
They began the new season by recording a clean sweep of victories in the opening round of matches, three of the four being bonus-point wins.
Now they face another round of cross-continent contests this weekend. One of those sees the Bulls taking on Munster at Thomond Park on Saturday night.
Hanrahan is well aware of just how tough a test the South African sides pose. “They’ve added hugely, it’s incredibly competitive,” said the 34-year-old.

“It’s four extra teams and all of high quality. They bring a different dynamic to the game in terms of their physicality and their pace, with the size of their men, the speed of their backs.
“We might not have always faced that in years gone by. So I think it’s brilliant, to be honest with you.
“You get an opportunity to face people that you don’t normally face, you’re going to parts of the world you might not have normally gone to, so I think it’s a great addition.
“Don’t get me wrong, it’s unbelievably challenging, but a very good addition.”
Munster kicked off their URC campaign with a 26-20 home defeat to the Glasgow Warriors, after leading 17-17 at the break. Hanrahan, who landed four shots at goal, said: “There was a lot to take from it.

“I think [coach] Clayton [McMillan] summed it up really well after the game when he spoke about green shoots.
“That’s probably the main thing for us. There was a lot of focus on what we were trying to build in pre-season in terms of some of our game.
“We didn’t get it all right. There was lots of stuff that we missed out there as well and we’ve addressed that as a team and how to improve on those things.”
The County Kerry-born Hanrahan is now in his third spell at Munster having also played for Northampton, Clermont Auvergne, the Dragons and Connacht.
As he prepares for another outing at Thomond Park, he has spoken about the huge role the team’s loyal fans play.
STATE OF THE URC: Unbeaten SA teams go again
“The supporters are always excellent and the people that turn up week in, week out are absolutely unbelievable,” he said. “They were unbelievable again last weekend.
“Something Paul O’Connell always used to talk about was that the fans want to see it in your actions and in your attitude.
“Hopefully we showed glimpses of that at the weekend. We didn’t get the result, but we felt them throughout the whole game.
“We want to keep building on that and they [the fans] can see us and see the effort we’re putting in on the training field, the effort we’re putting in on the Monday to Friday and hopefully we will be able to bring that out on a Saturday.”

Dobbo: Siya a beast with big presence
John Dobson and Ruhan Nel hailed the impact that Siya Kolisi has already had on the Stormers, but “the rugby contribution” is what the team needs in Edinburgh on Friday night.
Kolisi, who linked up with the team in Galway last week after completing his national duties, will make his return to the club and 119th appearance starting at openside flank at Hive Stadium in round two of the URC.
Dobson was impressed by Kolisi’s desire to play in the win against Connacht. He could’ve replaced the injured Evan Roos and Marcel Theunissen, but Dobson declined because of concerns over his hamstrings and the 4G surface at The Sportsground.
TEAM: Siya back for reshuffled Stormers
Speaking from Scotland on Thursday after naming his team for this week, the director of rugby shared how Kolisi has developed since he last coached him while highlighting the 35-year-old offers the team something different at six.
“Rugby-wise, we needed Siya. We have two other Springbok sixes in Paul [de Villiers] and Deon [Fourie], and neither was available this week,” Dobson told reporters.
“He’s not an out-and-out stealer; he gets turnovers through his tackling and counter-rucking.
“In terms of leadership, he’s got a big role to play, probably around the integration of the Springboks and setting standards. I could see him in the warm-up last week … His presence, just the smile and the songs and everything, it lifts the team.
TEAM: Schoes laces up for Edinburgh again
“But there’s no question that the rugby contribution is what we’re after and what we need tomorrow.
“What I can’t get over with Siya, and it’s going to sound like a silly point, is the size of him. He’s an openside flank, maybe not the world’s most traditional openside flank, but he’s a big beast.
“He’s certainly a bigger man than he was when he left here. He’s a really big presence, and I think that’s going to be useful on the 4G.”
Nel noted that Kolisi was his captain when he made his Stormers debut, and described the two-time World Cup winner’s player management and team culture buy-in as “unbelievable”.
After the Stormers’ win in Ireland, clips of Kolisi and his fellow players celebrating with the team’s song ‘Impi yamaStormer’ went viral.
“It’s Siya, I don’t even have to rave about it,” skipper Nel said.
