UBB: Welshman and former Bordeaux pillar Ricky Davies prepares for Wales

The Welsh press is very positive about the XV of France.

This is the testimony given to us from Wales by former UBB prop Ricky Davies that fear has changed sides a bit for this match. In any case, he is worried about “his” Welsh team.

this is the first time that I have seen the media here being very positive about this team from the Quinze de France. Normally, from Wales, we have seen the French team for several years coming here in difficulty with problems, but this time it is the opposite, it is we who are in difficulty. For the first time I fear for the Welsh team in Cardiff against France, because I see this team very, very strong. I hope the opposite of course but I see a very logical victory for the Fifteen of France, Friday evening in Cardiff. But here everyone talks about the very good work done by Shaun Edwards, we see the work, the atmosphere that is around him, it is obviously seen in the performances of the Quinze de France. It is no coincidence that Wales have won 3 Grand Slams with him in the last 10 years. And Edwards plus Ibanez and Galtier, that will give the same possibilities for the France team. So yes the Welsh press reviews are very positive – Ricky Davies

A France team sure of itself but without excess.

Shaun Edwards is a Welsh rugby legend! With the exception of the World Cup he won all possible competitions as a player and as a coach. Since 2019, he has coached the defense of the France team. But after their three victories and in front of so much praise, isn’t the XV of France risking an excess of confidence? Response from Fanny Lechevestrier who follows the blues for France Bleu

We asked this question to the players. And as much last year, even two years ago, we felt that there was, perhaps not carelessness but that they let themselves be a little drunk and carried away by emotions. And there, each time we see them, they are serene, sure of their qualities. But we don’t feel overconfident. We have the impression that they have already learned in two years and that they have made a monumental journey in this regard. And we have the feeling that even a small grain of sand cannot disturb them. Not even the COVID which comes to nibble their confidence a little. We feel sure of themselves, of their strengths, but without excess – Fanny Lechevestrier

A victory in Cardiff and after will then announce an exciting crunch between the France team and England. But let’s take the matches one after the other and go to France Bleu Gironde on Friday at 9:00 p.m. to experience Wales – France.
