[QUOTE="Gavin, post: 181766"] It looks like a strong French squad. Wouldn't mind seeing the French XV looking like this; Fabien Barcella, William Servat, Jean-Baptiste Poux, Jerome Thion, Lionel Nallet, Thierry Dusautoir, Fulgence Ouedraogo, Elvis Vermeulen, Jean-Baptiste Elissalde, Francois Trinh-Duc, Yannick Jauzion, Damien Traille (would rather have young David), Julien Malzieu, Vincent Clerc, Anthony Floch / Cedric Heymans (can't choose which one would be better) This game is going to be another classic, just like when Wales beat France in Paris during their Grand Slam year. Wales will have too much for France. Even if France pull off a win, I can't see them winning by 20 points or more. Although this is France we are talking about, I'm sure all New Zealander's remember the 2007 Quater-Final and also the 1999 Semi-Final. Wales' defence has been fantastic all through the Six Nations and I'm sure England will be kicking themselves by only offering Shaun Edwards a coaching job with the England Saxons. The French Midfield will put up a stronger attack than the centre partnerships of the other nations, but I am confident Shanklin and Henson will contain Jauzion and Traille. Both wings and fullbacks for France and Wales are going to be extremely strong. Williams against Malzieu will be interesting, as well as Clerc against Jones, and Bryne against Heymans or Floch. Wales to win by 5 points, 36-31 in the end. [/QUOTE]
