Since a France-Ireland preparatory to the 2011 World Cup, we had not seen the Blues in Bordeaux. They are back, not at Chaban-Delmas, but at Matmut Atlantique for the second meeting of their fall. After the laborious success (29-20) against Argentina, they will try to gain strength against the Georgians a week away from the shock that awaits them against the All Black.
Three players from Union Bordeaux-Bègles will play in front of their audience. Cameron Woki, placed in the second row, Matthieu Jalibert, maintained at the opening, and undoubtedly Maxime Lucu who will once again be a substitute.
In front of them, Georgia, 12th nation in the world, which will line up a XV where we find seven players playing in Top 14 and four in Pro D2. The two nations have only crossed paths once. It was September 27, 2007 in Marseille in the world cup, the Blues had largely won (64-7).
France-Georgia, it’s to be experienced in full on France Bleu Gironde and francebleu.fr this Sunday from 1:45 p.m.
