[QUOTE="CAB, post: 986808, member: 82887"] I am truly stunned by the fact almost no one gave credit to this french side to not loose a match it has dominated during about 60 minutes... First of all, Last WC, we have seen that Galthié had done some work in the french side, without Vahamina stupid gesture, France would have eliminated Welsh. The quarter final was a good match between 2 teams for once together at the same level... Then after ten days of Shaun Edwards, here the first difference : Frenchmen are still super great in firts half but they manage to keep the lead the match and to win it in the second half. That's NEW... I hope this french side won't perform too well nor too fast. They are young, they are in transition, they are improving. If they were to win the tournament this year or even to do the GS... it would be a thunder hit on rugby earth. Because this french team is perfectible, she has a big marge of improvement, they have 3 years to improve. Perosnally, I wanted to have the NZer former coach of Clermont and Scotland to train France (I like alot the way he trained Clermont, a mix of NZ and french culture) but it seems the ticket Galthié-Ibanez-Edwards will make "miracles"... I think England will recover cause they come and thought the mach was won before playing it, thanks to Old Eddie for his sarcastic/ironic/arrogant words on the french tiny kids which shoudl have been destroyed by the Super experienced vice-champions... Now that we have the players, the coach, the methode... Experience will come in the next three years... I am not sure that playing France is now the routine or the lovely promenade Eddie was saying ! I even think Welsh and Irish will play France with less certitudes... and that's not only NEW, that's GREAT. I think world Rugby need a good french side... [/QUOTE]
