00:00 "Well, the beauty of this competition is that every weekend is a tough weekend.
00:07 So it would be a bit too early to say that.
00:10 Of course, it's a really important game for the tournament, but I remember two years ago,
00:18 I think, we didn't get a bonus point against Italy and we lost the Six Nations with that.
00:24 So that's, like I say, the beauty of Six Nations, you need to be consistent every weekend.
00:31 So we just go step by step and the first one is a massive step for us."
00:37 "Well, it's a really noisy stadium.
00:44 It can be tough when you're at the end of the game, really tired.
00:50 There is lots of noise, but it gives us lots of energy.
00:54 We really feel a huge energy coming from the stands.
00:58 So I hope the public will help us tomorrow night, because we will need their help.
01:05 And we really love this stadium, we really love playing here."
01:08 "It's a team that is very precise.
01:15 Of course, they don't weigh 150 kilos, but they are very precise, they are repeated
01:22 dozens of times.
01:23 They have a third line of players who are world class.
01:27 They are probably one of the best in the world.
01:30 So it's going to be a great challenge, but I think that we, the French, like to take
01:38 the challenges.
01:39 So it's perfect."
01:41 "When you wear the jersey, you have to come back and get it.
01:47 And today, we have Max Lucu, who is wearing the colours of the French team.
01:53 Because in all the training sessions, he is someone who has a big capital, who has
01:57 exceptional quality.
01:58 You see him every weekend in the top 14.
02:00 And there is the emergence of young players who come in.
02:03 I'm thinking of Nolan, the Garec, who, since his integration, has somehow
02:10 been missing.
02:11 And Antoine, too.
02:12 He proves to us every day that he is capable of playing at this position."
