Vannes ne compte pas faire de la figuration

Of course, personally, as a French fan, I’m firmly convinced Antoine Dupont is the GOAT, and the team as a whole are heroes, and if Antoine and Romain are fit, France A are world beaters.

I fully expect Kiwis and Saffas to hold a completely different view and to back their boys up to the hilt. Would they be fans if they didn’t! They may say whatever they like about past WCs, playing on SH soil and so on, as for the future, it’s up to their teams to back them up!

As far as “top dog international is best”, of course I enjoy it. But I’d rather keep the fantastic Top14 entertaining me almost year round and have a bit less tdi, than have theTop14 damaged for the sake of two or three games more of tdi gone in a flash. There’s always the WC, and soon there’ll be the world club cup, which as a supporter of Stade Toulousain, the greatest club in the world, of course!! I find an interesting prospect.

As NZ don’t reap the benefits of the Top14 it seems only natural they shouldn’t care so much about it, but perhaps the club WC will spark more a little more interest in foreign club opposition.

Not like England A for example, who won a Test series in Argy 2-0 and have unearthed a number of players who will gain impetus from a winning tour and will play for the Red Rose again in future.

I cannot make it any clearer without the use of coloured blocks!👶

What would you offer them to make cooperation more attractive for them?

Their way or the highway is a little more likely…

And I am not a smart man, so please oblige.

And you missed a soft ball there. Shirley.

How will he fair being thrown into the deep end of a test against the boks?

Are we saying that he wouldn’t cope and if so why not throw him in the shallow end of a test against a French special needs team?

Is he good enough to be an AB?

Razors approach has been too conservative and it’s going to haunt him in the long term.

France sending their dreg team offered him a golden opportunity to experiment in selection particularly in the backs.

Retreading the tried and tested into different positions doesn’t count.

But I think there is no doubt Leicester will be in. Based on his form for Toulon, Toulouse, wherever it was, he is the best centre in the country.
