[QUOTE="Shaggy, post: 629473, member: 43400"] ... Oh absolutely not ... not only does this article originate from the SH, but the link was originally posted by me, and as I have a New Zealand flag under my name, I OBVIOUSLY have nothing to worth contributing to the relative strengths of the French national side ... it's probably my "insular Kiwi mentality', because of Sheep Farming, right FF ... not the fact that ineligible (for France) players take up spots, for elligible, French players. ... your probably better to take FF's opinion, as he's so persistent in making his point, despite my acknowledgement that this topic has been covered in depth, on another thread, and that I didn't want to pursue it anymore. Indeed, I can't predict the results of games that will never be played between the French national side, and top French club sides (as he can) ... but to be fair, he could do that 20 years ago, when he KNEW that the clubs could beat the national side then, and they didn't have foreign players then ... and he hasn't been proved wrong, has he? :D As we all know, U20 Six nations success ALWAYS translates into full international domination in the men's game, and as there's clearly a plan in place that's blooding potential international men's players in the Women's game, and thus strengthening your men's side, I'll just jump on the band wagon (if I'm allowed), and blame it all on the coach's selections, just as the blame went on the previous coach, and probably the one after this one also.
