Championship heavyweights Toulouse Olympique have locked in their squad numbers for 2025, with stalwart Anthony Marion named as their new captain.
Six-time France international Marion, who has made 205 appearances in the British game for Toulouse to date, retains the #13 shirt at the Stade Ernest-Wallon.
He steps up from vice-captain to skipper ahead of the new campaign following the departure of two-time Super League winner Harrison Hansen in the off-season.
Paul Marcon (#5) and Dom Peyroux (#12) remain as Sylvain Houles’ vice-captains for 2025, with Olympique having made just two signings so far in preparation for the new season.
Those two new recruits both come from clubs they will face in the Championship this year, with Rob Butler (#17) joining from London Broncos and Ellis Gillam (#21) making the move to France from Barrow Raiders following a successful trial.
Former Hull FC man Joe Cator also earned himself a new deal in the South of France following his move midway through last year, and will don number 15 in 2025 with ex-Hull KR ace Greg Richards retaining #20.
Elsewhere, young gun Baptiste Rodriguez takes number 14 having signed his first professional contract, while Lebanon ace James Roumanos and France international Paolo Dall’Asta are the only players to change shirt numbers from 2024.
Roumanos, who featured in the delayed 2021 Rugby League World Cup for the Cedars, will don number 10 this year. Dall’Asta, whose two games for France both came in 2023, takes number 18.
