    Do France just come together the morning of a game and spend half an hour with a whiteboard deciding on a game plan?

    No. That's so wide of the mark. There is no whiteboard or plan

    The dont have time to indulge in that kind of sophistication. All the time goes on introducing the various players to each other.

    Does Huget know where a fullback is meant to be?

    I'm fairly sure that's not Huget but it's actually Mo Salah.

    That's an old school French flair try. They were so enjoyable to watch back in the day.

    I listen to the rugby pod fair bit and they offer some interesting insight into French club rugby. No strength and conditioning. No structure and people smoking in training.

    It's a shame it's ingrained in theentire mindset of French rugby. Until they turn it around they are destined for mediocrity

    Big time. France have given up. Even the Italians would offer more resistance
