He made 24 appearances, scoring 49 points, in the 2006/07[ citation needed ] season as Clermont reached the Top 14 final and won the European Challenge Cup. He played in the final as Clermont won the Top 14 title in 2009–10, and scored a drop goal in the process. [1] In the 2011 Top 14 he scored, a 60-metre goal, with over 10 metres to spare. This was one of the biggest kicks seen. In 2013, Floch signed a deal to join French Top 14 side Montpellier. [2]
He was called up to the French squad by Marc Lievremont for the 2008 Six Nations Championship, where he won his first cap off the bench against England in a defeat at the Stade de France.
