Re: Counter poaching by Galthie: Antoine Frisch
So Galthie has decided to undercut Ireland and call Antoine Frisch into the group preparing the England game. Is he any good? Such a shame that Danty is out. We could have had a partnership at the centre called Danty Frisch 😂 :lol: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: après on a bien laissé les clés du ca...

Re: Antoinee Dupont gone???
The real question is, do you have a 'Stephen Donald' if Lucu gets injured? Stephen Donald comes after Lucu’s replacement gets injured. Carter > Cruden > Slade > Donald. I (and I think quite a few others) rate Baptiste Serin higher than both Lucu and Couilloud. you are probably right at individual l...

Re: RWC 2023 - France thread
There are various reasons Ntamack was our number 1, and defense was one of them. This will have an impact on how we defend and if we tighten up around Jalibert, teams will find space out wide. Now, Hastoy is more reliable in that area than Jalibert, but doesn't have that touch of magic that Jaliber...

Re: OFFICIAL France vs Australia RWC warm up match thread
Finally got to see the second half. The yellow card was a joke. While I think the penalty call was not necessarily wrong (though unlucky, as Vunivalu only flops over because he is pushed by 3 guys behind him), there were 2 French against 5 Wallabies. No way could the French have ensured continuity ...

Re: Official FIFA World Cup Thread - Qatar 2022
Defense is weak but our attack is quality. That defence will surely be France's downfall. Whether from the tournament or the match day squad, France is missing some very talented and experienced players. In defence, you'd have expected Kimpembe and Varane..... not to mention Kante, Pogba and tonigh...
