Under the gaze of Serge Blanco calmly drinking his coffee in a corner of the room, Philippe Saint-André announced Friday morning, unsurprisingly composition of the XV of France who will face Ireland on Sunday (5:45 p.m.) in Cardiff.
The coach assures that he had no hesitation to build his team. As expected, it has renewed its confidence in Brice Dulin, as a winger on the left side of the attack tricolor, “first to fight for the Irish and solutions against attack.”
Right, Noa Nakaitaci is returning in place of Rémy Grosso. Another welcome return: that of Louis Picamoles, third line. “I feel a lot of greed on the part of players,” said Saint-Andre before this final Group D, between two teams already assured of a place in the quarterfinals.
“It’s an outstanding game to play, he said. Against a great big nation of world rugby, but it does not feel jettisoned. I trust my players and 15,000 French fans that will make as much noise as 35,000 Irish. “
Without dwelling on a possible preferably between New Zealand and Argentina in the quarter Final, St. Andrew concludes: “All countries of the world champions have not lost the match in the group, so if you want to be world champions, it would be nice to win on Sunday.”
