0:17:28 > 0:17:31- It was a long period of pressure - from Grenoble.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33- What a pass from Chris Farrell.
0:17:38 > 0:17:43- Grenoble are back where they want - to be. Oyonnax are down to 14 men.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47- Silvere Tian, the winger, - is in the sin bin.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- There should be - some space somewhere.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Runners - are coming from all over the place.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- That's the try line - in the background.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- MacLeod tried to point out - an infringement to the referee.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02- He signalled play on.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05- The forwards drive on once again.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- They're driving determinedly - towards the try line.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- Taumalolo almost crosses the line.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12- He's the bald prop.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- Has the try come this time?
0:18:15 > 0:18:16- Yes, it has.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Hendrik Roodt scores.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22- We've had half an hour on the clock.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27- It's 16-3 and Roodt from - South Africa gets the second try.
0:18:30 > 0:18:35- We talk about how French teams can - afford to attract foreign players.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Only five Frenchmen - are starting for Grenoble.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42- Gio Aplon went through Oyonnax - like a knife through butter.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- He's got support - in Fabien Alexandre.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- Can Aplon get there?
0:18:47 > 0:18:49- No, he can't, but MacLeod is there.
0:18:50 > 0:18:55- At the moment, - Grenoble have a bonus point.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- We've got five minutes left - of the first half.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- It's a neat little pass - to find Alexandre.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- Aplon came on the loop.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- He didn't get there - but fed MacLeod who did.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15- Grenoble are threatening - to run away with this one.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- The score is currently 25-3 - in the second half.
0:19:21 > 0:19:27- It looks like a happy new year for - the team based at Stade des Alpes.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- The ball was slow - getting to MacLeod.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34- There are plenty of men out wide.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Wisniewski to Aplon.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- I think Gio Aplon could thread - a needle with his eyes closed.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49- Aplon, without doubt, is having - his best game of the season.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51- He's got such quick feet.
0:19:54 > 0:19:59- Oyonnax were second from bottom this - morning. They only have Agen below.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02- Believe it or not....
0:20:02 > 0:20:06- ..they're yet to score a try - away from home this season.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09- It looks like that record - is about to change.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Tian was the villain earlier, - now he's the hero.
0:20:15 > 0:20:19- Grenoble still have their hands - firmly on that bonus point.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32- We've had almost an hour of play.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37- The Grenoble forwards have been - much stronger than Oyonnax...
0:20:37 > 0:20:41- ..in the line-outs, the scrums - and in the driving mauls.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45- Here they come again - looking for another try...
0:20:46 > 0:20:49- ..to seal their win and bonus point.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51- They could really use one.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53- They're over the line.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55- The referee was in the right place.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- Who knows - who's under the pile of bodies.
0:20:59 > 0:21:04- I think in the end it was - the Australian No.8, Rory Grice.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28- Surely they'll get a try here?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31- Yes, it comes for Maurie Fa'asavalu.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35- That's better.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- If you score three more tries - than your opponents...
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- ..you get a bonus point in France.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- At the moment, Grenoble still have - their hands on that bonus point.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51- La Rochelle won a tight game - against Castres on Saturday.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55- Despite the visitors outscoring - the home side by two tries to one...
