En reconquête du titre mondial perdu l’an passé après trois succès consécutifs, les Bleuets (moins de 20 ans) ont entamé leur Mondial de rugby dimanche à Vérone en dominant 49 à 11 l’Espagne, avec sept essais et le bonus offensif en poche.

Sous le soleil de plomb de Vérone, les Français ont un temps peiné face à des Espagnols agressifs dans le jeu au sol, et récompensés par le pied de Gonzalo Otamendi au but.

Mais les joueurs de Cédric Laborde ont réussi à faire parler leur puissance, avec trois essais en première période, tous marqués par des avants: le numéro 8 Mathis Baret (7e), le troisième ligne Baptiste Britz (16e) et le deuxième ligne Bartholomé Sanson (36e).

En tête 21-6 à la pause, les Bleuets se sont emparés du bonus offensif en deuxième période avec notamment un doublé de Baret (49e) et un essai du talonneur Lyam Akrab (56e), meilleur joueur du Tournoi des six nations 2025, remporté par les Français.

Les Français affronteront vendredi (15h30) le pays de Galles pour leur deuxième match de poule.

All Blacks coach Scott Robertson reveals who the fastest player in New Zealand is

It's good to hear that Leroy Carter is on Razor's radar. He could have been part of this first squad — maybe he’ll make it into the Rugby Championship if the current wingers don’t perform well enough.

Former All Blacks name their starting XV's for first Test against France

Tamaiti Williams won’t be there. Sidelined with a meniscus injury, he’ll be out for about two months.

De Groot / Taylor / Lomax

S. Barrett / Vaa’i

No surprises there.

In the back row, who will start — Lio-Willie or Kirifi?

I’m ruling out Jacobson, who’s recovering after a head knock.

At 10, I’m leaning more towards DMK than Beauden to partner Roigard.

That leaves the trickiest selection... centres and wings.

Will Jordie be thrown in straight away? Will Rieko, who we’ve seen training on the wing, wear the number 11 shirt? And will Proctor start the international season at 13? Probably yes to all three questions.

But you guys still continue to miss my main point. He's radically changed his style! I identified his problem a long time ago, and that was his long and angular runup (along with the silly Jonny Wilkinson arm movements plus taking way too long). With his short and quick run up he's removed all that nonsense and I fully expect him to be the ace (sorry) kicker we all want him to be. And maybe even Wonderboy, who seems to have a problem from what should be the easier side of the field for a right-footed kicker, might not miss so many (two in one game on Saturday) like he did.

'It's disrespectful': Former All Blacks shocked by France's travelling squad

Marshall’s and Wilson’s comments have some values on the national audience but they completely fail with the international one. This kind of comments would be useful outside new zealand, adressed to the french national league that organizes the top 14 (14 teams, come on, really !?!) and says who can or can’t go to exotic summer camps. any major top 14 player plays half more games than any equivalent major all black, so the league stops adding more and it is for the exclusive benefit of clubs. No southern team will ever ever ever receive a full national french team in june. or july. or august. Even less in late july or august when the clubs start again their training.

This has been explained over and over, year after year, with south-african readers, australians, new-zealanders, argentinians so why is this trolls’ bait article published once again now?

I did suggest you see a therapist because you're quite obviously suffering mental health issues.

This incoherent comment just illustrates the issues you are suffering from.

Why take your head out of the sand to ruin rugby in NZ?

Do you realise most nations have the same selection policies?

Well the Rugby championship isn’t slanted in anyone’s favor. What’s the record there?

Haha you got triggered bad. “IN YOUR HEAD" EH! Just let it go fraudulant Jacko! It will just continue to trigger your episodes. Even NB would advise you to let it go and we know you worship his feet. Maybe put a different poster on your wall. Your “friend” is over the Mounga photo you have up above your bed.

George Bower joins All Blacks squad as star prop requires surgery

Real shame about Tamaiti Williams . He has been one of the AB’s best in recent year and had a tremendous season for the Crusaders. George Bower , who has been brought in, should have been named in the original squad, ahead of Norris. He too was fantastic for the Crusaders. Like team mate Christian Lio-Willie, who also has been elevated. Both should have been automatic selections. Just a shame the two players injured are Wallace Sititi and Tamaiti Williams.

'It's disrespectful': Former All Blacks shocked by France's travelling squad

Hmmmm they should actually watch some of the Top14 games featuring many of the players selected in the squad, particularly in the backs.

They are skilful and they are rapid. I hope that Razor banking on power players in the midfield doesn’t backfire. I’ve yet to see many well constructed tries scored by the All Blacks backs when spreading the ball the full width of the pitch.

All Blacks coach Scott Robertson reveals who the fastest player in New Zealand is

Speed is such a difficult thing to put a value on. In most team sports, speed over the first 20-25 mtrs is all you need to make a break or get past an opponent it rarely does a fast 100m speed benifit much. There is always that once tho…
