Too be honest, missing chabal doesn't hit france hard. He's more of an icon
for the country's rugby than a lethal weapon on the field. Yes, he has his
versatile features in playing and his presence boosts the team's moral but I
think that his level of performance is very unsteady. Dropping him is not a
mistake - he's got to do much better than wiping people off their feet with
massive tackles once every 3 weeks to impress Lievremont. His performance
level is unsteady and inconsistent, he needs to pick up the pieces and be
more like the destructive Dusautoir or Vermeulen but on permanent level.
So looking forward to it!!!! They'll have to do well! Feb 3rd at Scotland is
going to be HUGE!
Let me know how will that game you'll play go.
