For anybody who loves the Six Nations and want to see European Rugby as strong as possible, France win in Cardiff was a significant moment, possibly the start of something special. I doubt whether France are capable of winning RWC 2023 which they will be hosting but they must bury the memories of nearly a decade of largely poor rugby and bad experiences. Their win over Wales at the principality stadium was the start of that process.
Did you see the young team dancing and jigging with delight and signing their song in the changing room afterwards? it was all over twitter. They are the moment when teams start to get and believe they can take on the world.
Victory did not come easily for them, they fought for it until i saw they deserved it. Scotland will give them plenty to think about, likewise ireland in the last round. They could easily lose one of those matches and that would all be part of the process but i think we can safely say the real France are back
So this time round things will be tough. As Eddie said after the game there is more to come from this side and the sight of wales running out at Twickenham in two weeks time might light the touchpaper.
the heck game
