And that ends the game with Stade winning by 37 points to 23. The game was over by half time after very clinical first half performance by Stade who had the bonus point in the bag by the break. With nothing left to play for they took their foot off the gas in the second and gave Bordeaux a slimmer of hope at stealing a losing bonus point but it is not to be. This loss ends Bordeaux hopes of a play off place while it draws Stade on level points with Touluse but they have to travel to European Champions Toulon in 2 weeks time and win there and hope Toulouse or Castres slip up. Thank you for following UR's coverage of this game and Goodnight
