Pau Legends Revisit 2000 Playoff Glory
Rey, Triep-Capdeville, and Rollès break down the grit and glory of Section Paloise's last great era.

Joël Rey, Pierre Triep-Capdeville, and Franck Rollès returned to the mic for a Sud Ouest podcast to dissect the golden era of Section Paloise, stripping away the polish to reveal the raw, unvarnished reality of the club's late 1990s and early 2000s playoff runs. The trio didn't hold back, unpacking the specific chemistry that allowed a small club to punch significantly above its weight in French rugby. They detailed the fierce camaraderie that defined the locker room, a bond forged not through corporate team-building but through shared battles and an underdog mentality that terrified opponents.
