[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1152585, member: 55747"] I understand why people say this and i've used it myself as banter, but when you look at the stats, well, i don't think it's that clear. faced each other 8 times in WCs, right? France won 1999, 2007 and this one. All others went to new zealand. The biggest stomping is probably 2015s game. That was actually painful to watch. And out of those 8 games two were RWC finals and both were won by New Zealand. You could argue that Fra has a much better record vs NZ during WCs (vs taking into account all games), and that's probably the reason why people have this belief. [/QUOTE]
