[QUOTE="Derpus, post: 1048432, member: 76427"] I'm keen to hear your opinion on this: i think the whole 'France are amazing and have infinite depth' is bullshit. Sure, they have a lot of players but where are the results? Even when they wern't playing their supposed 'C' (or are we down to D now?) team, they didn't get results in the 6 nations. They didn't get results last World Cup. When was the last time they even won the 6 nations? I think beating Australia at home would be a huge achievement but flipping the narrative, they are essentially beating the worst Wallaby team of the last 30 years completely gutted of all it's talent by international poachers. The starting 9-10-12 combination for the decider have 16 caps between them, none of which were together. Are the French players just being made to look good by the Top14, where they don't get tested against Bokke or All Blacks? (the actual favourites for RWC23). (having made this comment i fully expect them to win the next RWC) [/QUOTE]
