Despite the poor performance of his troops, Fabien Galthié had some reasons for satisfaction at the end of the match once morest Uruguay.
Second match for the France team during this World Cup and second victory. Six days following dominating the Blacks in the opening (27-13), the Blues in fact disposed of Uruguay with a similar score (27-12). While the supporters were waiting for an offensive festival, Fabien Galthié’s men had all the trouble in the world to overcome the Teros, even missing the offensive bonus point.
The essentials were safe and the French coach was content with that at the end of the meeting when explaining this poor performance. “The important thing was to win following a very special opening match. We continued with a match that we didn’t see, which was behind that of the All Blacks, thus confided the former scrum half to the microphone of TF1. We didn’t know how to make it happen, we made a lot of mistakes. The Uruguay team has come together, it’s a club in fact since they all play at Penarol, they have automatisms. They believed in their destiny, they believed they might win this match.
The entire workforce is available except Julien Marchand
The technician nevertheless had another reason for satisfaction beyond the success achieved. “There are no injuries, it’s a second positive point with the victory,” rejoiced Fabien Galthié. No player has in fact fallen on the field of honor like Julien Marchand once morest the Blacks. And if he did not appear very bleeding, Anthony Jelonch, who was making his comeback following more than six months without playing following his serious knee injury during the Tournament, seemed to keep up the pace. “There are quite a few reasons for satisfaction, including the return of Anthony (Jelonch) as captain”also underlined the coach before giving good news from the infirmary.
“We want to get players who haven’t played yet into shape. Cyril Baille is very close to starting once more. You have to choose the right time”, he announced. If it should be too tight for Namibia, next Thursday, the Stade Toulousain pillar is expected to face Italy at the beginning of October. Conversely, Jonathan Danty might be lined up once morest Namibia. “Jo is ready, assured Fabien Galthié. The entire workforce is available except Julien Marchand. We will have to referee well between the two matches that remain for us, to keep the group running and under pressure. All players are potentially on the scoresheet. We are going to be very vigilant regarding playing time, rotating to balance playing time.”
