The Grand Slam is reaching out to them. The XV of France is in the best possible position to win this title which has eluded it for 12 years. And there’s only one way to do that: beat England this Saturday (9 p.m.). Undefeated since the start of the competition, the Blues will have the advantage of the field since this final takes place at the Stade de France.
Fabien Galthié’s players also arrive with impressive mentality and freshness, a sign that the Habs staff have learned lessons from past defeats. Unlike the two previous tournaments where you had to get out the calculator before the final match, the situation could not be simpler for the Blues: a victory over England and, whatever the result of the meeting between Ireland and Scotland earlier (5:45 p.m.), the title and the Grand Slam are guaranteed.
