Players to watch for France:
1) Whole back row. Superfast and skilful with Macalou so quick, he's filled in at centre for Paris.
2) Villiere the kid RCT wing. Diminutive but no only is he fast, he is a surprisingly tough defender who routinely makes turnovers.

Good job sturginho :thumbup:

Could be an interesting game, 1/2 of the players have 0 to 5 caps and the starters are mainly the substitutes from the regular team.
At least we have a great FH & a fast SH.

#12 Danty is a yellow card magnet.
As mentioned above, watch #7 Macalou he's so fast........ to screw his own teammates.

Danty really is a tw*t. He should have had twice the career of Basta but, as you say, a pen magnet because he can't manage his anger. His time is gone.

Macalou doesn't screw his own teammates ON the pitch. :thumbup:

F**k knows. With the pace of that backrow and back 3, Fra should run everything.

Poor way for that to end, looked like some momentum was being generated.

I meant Italy look very nervous, but yes France too, but with so many enforced changes that's to be expected

Should be the reverse. These guys know they are not 1st choice so should get out there and enjoy it.

This is beyond sh*t. Serin slowing everything down. Macalou suddenly with the dropsies.

Nice try.

Not sure if it's part of the system or not, but Serin seems to be making a lot of first up tackles against much bigger men and it's costing France ground.

I like look of Zanon, Italy potentially have a cracking long-term centre partnership in him and Mori.

Because he does everything wrong. As a result, he's arriving next month to each breakdown.

And instead of punishing it, Jalibert just keeps hoofing it back. :mad:

And... as predicted... Serin + Jalibert = neither winger has seen a ball.

Get Carbonel on.

Danty v anyone usually only one winner. He is a brutal carrier and defender. And also less discipline then a 3 year old with Tourettes.

As an aside, Sturginho, first Swindon win in 2 decades against the Pox with 85 and 92 minute goals. I'm out of it....

Solid scrums, centre play and good patience from your boys

Nice highlights of Domi. At his best, he really was rapid with brilliant balance.

And the posh lost to non league in the cup, which makes me feel a bit better about the cobblers getting knocked out in the first round!
