Grenoble boosted their chances of avoiding the drop from the Top 14 thanks to an impressive 26-22 win over Toulouse on Thursday.

It was Grenoble's third win of the season and they crossed once in either half to secure the victory with Loick Jammes and Xavier Mignot scoring their tries.

Toulouse's total was brought up by Jean-Marc Doussain and a penalty try but they will feel aggrieved that their first-half score through Gael Fickou was ruled out due to obstruction.

For Grenoble, the result moves them off the foot of the Top 14, much to the delight of their coach Bernard Jackman.

"The holidays are goint to be even better than expected for me and the players too," Jackman said. "We're not the best team but we can beat anyone on our day."
