The discreet pillar of the ASF, Giorgi Vepkhvadze, starts his fourth season in blue and white. However who’s he and the place does he come from?
The person is cast. Inevitably since he occupies the submit of pillar. However the guy could also be endearing whilst you alternate a couple of phrases with him. Phrases he says with this slight pronunciation from in other places very delightful. Giorgi Vepkhvadze, now 31 years worn, lives in concubinage and father of 2 kids, has change into an actual Fleurantin.
Right here he’s, smartly settled within the flowery the town of Lomagne in a area he has simply bought. A local of Imereti, Georgia, Giorgi began taking part in rugby at while 14 next practising wrestling, and it used to be in Tbilisi that he realized his rugby talents.
From Belfast to Fleurance by way of Aurillac
Nevertheless it used to be the Oyonnax membership and a definite Christophe Urios who introduced him to France. Stunning recollections for him. “I did 3 years at the training center there then 3 years under a professional contract. I remember this title of French Pro D2 champion in 2017 but also this match in the Challenge Cup in Belfast against Ulster with this incredible atmosphere which marked me a lot. And after a short stint in Aurillac, the solid pillar lands in Fleurance.
“I liked Nicolas Dupouy’s speech and the Gersoise weather also compared to the harsh winters of Oyonnax and Aurillac”, he jokes. “I’ve been here for four years and I’m very happy here. The people of the club and of this town are very nice and welcoming. There is also the ASF, which he judges. “The club evolves every year and we are always at the top of the table. We can regret the play-off against Rennes last season… We came close to a great adventure. This year we are aiming for qualification, it is necessary for the club, the supporters and the whole city, ”assumes the Georgian.
Then again, the defeat towards Auch darkened the image a slight. “It was complicated because we didn’t control it well, maybe a little too much pressure. Auch didn’t steal anything but they had better luck in both matches because we should have won there and back,” he regrets. Indisputably this derby fueled the conversations between Giorgi and Beto, his buddy from Auch.
Now there’s this go back and forth to Marmande and which the Fleurantins need to importance to bop again. “It would be good to go and get a result there to get back on track. Besides, we will play against my friend Lasha Lomidze. But I hope he won’t be there. We ate in front of the Tournoi des VINations last weekend. It was on the terrace, in the cold, he might be sick (laughs)”.Sacred Giorgi!
