Oui!!!!!Yes, Veronique Landew and Tom Dickson try their best to communicate the excitement that has taken over France and the Rugby world as we are about to start the best World Cup ever.Looking ahead to France vs. New Zealand at their first meeting of the competition on Friday, might there be a second on 28th October?Beset by injuries in key positions, the depth of the French team will be sorely tested under the Indian summer heat on Friday.The rest of the week-end holds crackers in store, possibly the best weekend of the pool stages.  Tom will be watching 4 of the Top 8 teams in Marseille where upsets are possible, and we'll be keeping our eye on Wales vs Fiji for the same.Have a good competition, see you at the other end of the pool stages!
