All Blacks v France

@Mauss said in All Blacks v France:
French team's been named.
No Penaud, who is still sick. Ramos at 10. Buros, the Bordeaux fullback, at the back. Tatafu starting at tighthead, with only his second cap.
Pretty much the team predicted earlier in the week.

Is Savea at 7? Will be VERY interested to see how he goes there.

McKenzieDMac should have started but otherwise it's fine I guess
Good 23 but still some nagging questions about 2, 9 and 10 and whether they should be starting or finishing.

DMac starts in my book. DMac was great against Ireland.
I've been waiting years for Savea to play at 7 -
Finau's chance to impress.

Why will it take a jersey number change for him to get stuck in?
I think you’re getting a bit carried away about Roigard.

Cane is still our best 7 because he does what a 7 is supposed to do.
Ardie, in an ideal situation over the next year or so, is relegated to the bench. Don’t be silly

Because he is fond of a highlight reel poach or two and now he has carte blanche to feed his gluttonous belly..
It will also free up Sititi to play his best position hence injury being the best selector albeit by proxy in this case.
The Camwagon is leaving the station mate. Jump on or be left on the platform with Victor Meldrew.

We now have an actual 6 at 6 and an actual 8 at 8 instead of some of the three “we don’t know what they are’s” in Blackadder, Papalii, Jacobsen and then Savea, who is a position all of his own with his mutant seagulling and YouTube short catnip power plays.
We now have 2/3 of a traditional back row instead of the Jackson Pollock selection painting we have been served up in the loosies for the last 4 years.

Interesting call for DMac. Looks like most, if not all, of the squad playing in their natural positions???
BB and WJ are in their cover positions...

A few debating points but Overall I’m excited about the team , looking forward to it ,

I love the French National Anthem.
Err sorry -
Jalibert spat out his dummy about being put on the bench so withdrew -
Matthieu reportedly told French coach Fabien Galthié not to pick him on the bench after missing out on a starting spot to face the All Blacks.
Thomas Ramos will start at first five-eighth from his usual position at 15, alongside halfback Antoine Dupont. Jalibert was on the bench against Japan was according to reports, didn’t want to face the All Blacks from the bench.
“Everyone has their own emotions and is free to share them,” Galthié said. “We need determination, strong players. Up until now he’s always given his best. He will continue with the national team, if he so chooses. It’s down to him to decide.”
