“HASBefore arriving at the English, we will have to go through stages, because this match will only have flavor with a title at stake“, mentioned co-selector Gaëlle Mignot at a press conference. The French XV launches its Six Nations Tournament, Saturday March 23 (at 3:15 p.m. live on France 2 and france.tv) against Ireland at Le Mans. A first affordable meeting against a team which remained on a Wooden Spoon last year, but which will be able to count on the support of several septists who came to strengthen the Irish XV.
Favorites in the competition with England, Manaé Feleu’s teammates remained on a mixed performance during the WXV in New Zealand, with a victory against the Blacks Ferns (18-17), but two defeats against Canada and Australia . Facing Ireland, the Blues must return to the Tournament to confirm their rank in the world hierarchy.
