Why is anyone surprised? Every member of the England team plays in either of the top 2 leagues in the world.
Half of the French team play in a semi pro league.
Get rid of half the England team and replace them with Championship players and see how well we do against Australia.
The argument that Catalans hasn’t improved the French team is just daft and far too simplistic, but then that kind of argument is the norm in RL.

Exactly this
Just imagine if there were no FT players in the French squad, England would be getting close to a century of points.
The harsh reality is that we have a squad of FT pro players and right now, the best pack in world RL and unless France are able to catch up (which at present looks impossible), they will remain a "second tier" International side.
Their fully fit first choice 13/17 are ok but, there is absolutely no depth and how could there be ??
