As a team though, France are much better than the Aussies

We have a terrible record at the Stade, and I also think we'll be mentally sated after what we did today. Back in '95, we had nothing left for NZ in the semis after beating Oz in a QF shootout: I'm expecting something similar next week, Les Bleus winning with quite a bit to spare.
