Following the pharaonic opening ceremony of the Rugby World Cup at the Stade de France in Paris, two of the four possible World Cup finalists will take to the pitch for the opening match between France and New Zealand.
France XV coach Fabien Galti faces lengthy infirmary out of reach of All Blacks Jonathan Dante, Paul Willems and Cyril Bay, and Romain Ntamak. There are those who know France and its championship well – the former captain of the Italian team. Sergio Parissand who comments on the Captain’s Call podcast: “There are a lot of injured players in France, but they also have players who can take their place. I’m pretty sure that France has the strongest team in the last 20 or 15 years. I had the opportunity to play the 2007 World Cup here, it was a great tournament,” he said. Pariss.
Side All black, the result against South Africa changed the minds of New Zealand. Ian Foster’s team can be beaten and, despite a large number of absences from the XV French Championship, they are not favorites. But let’s remember the words Mealamuformer All Blacks captain and prostitute, “those who think us All Blacks can be beaten do so at their own peril.”
