OK so the French scrum is quite scary.

This is going to be an interesting last ten minutes!! F acne have been very efficient. Now can they hold on?

Great work by France. Firstly tackling the Kiwi opensodebinto touch. Then the penalty and just holding the ball to eat the clock.

Huge but talented French back row will give us trouble, I suspect.

Have to run them around. They're scarily big but they'll be blowing after 50 minutes. Sadly I think injuries may strip some of those quality players out though.

NZ were poor - and they don't like it up 'em do they?

Brilliant from France. They dominated that game for 70 minutes and looked powerful and skilful.
Going to be a very stiff challenge on Sunday.

I'm more surprised Butler's missing out to Dingwall, who I've not been impressed by at all. He keeps putting passes behind people, which I guess does mean he's already integrated into how the seniors play.

Top class defence is why. That and he’s obviously the best educated member of the squad ;)
His dad and family went out to watch- they will have been rightly proud.
Lee Dickson was impressed as well:
