The next step in the Rugby League French Revolution would be some success for the National team against a tier one nation.

I am aware France play England before the test series against the Kiwis, I expect France to narrowly lose that game. However if they play the Kiwis after the series, as is often the case, I believe the team below, with the confidence of a Challenge Cup win, will beat New Zealand. The Kiwis will no doubt expect they only have to show up to win the game, and be in for a rude awakening.

You did watch Yaha in the Cup? he made that HKR wingers efforts a few years ago look like a masterclass.

Are you referring to the HKR winger who now plays for the London Broncos.?

Yaha had a bad game in the cup final but has been in great form this year

France over the years have mainly relied on French born/speaking players, to their credit I may add. However, if they could add a few "heritage" players to their squad, could it propel them to the next level. It has done Tonga no harm at the moment.
Are there any players either in England or in the Southern Hemisphere that could qualify to play for France??? I know Heath L'Estrange qualified as does Dane Chisholm who has a French Mother..


Anyone else?????

Are there any British players with French ancestry?? Silly question really considering the effects of the Norman invasion centuries ago...lol
