CASTRES 17-22 MONTPELLIER

Ruan Pienaar proved he’s no stranger to placekicking on rainy evenings with six from six to help Montpellier continue their 100% Top14 start.  Their scrum was under much first half pressure yet Castres could only build a 5-point cushion and once du Plessis, Nariashvili and Haouas steadied things from the bench, a great pass on the run from Immelman found Nadolo in space to grab the lead for good.  A solid away victory for Cotter’s men even without Aaron Cruden.
