France head coach François Ratier kept his cards close to his chest in the wake of his team's 31-12 loss to the Black Ferns.
France head coach François Ratier emphasized that his side must focus on finishing scoring opportunities following their 31-12 loss to the Black Ferns. While the defeat marked France's third loss to New Zealand in the autumn WXV Global Series, Ratier noted it was a marked improvement from their 81-12 blowout loss the previous week.
Ratier commended the composure of his young, injury-hit squad against intense pressure. France finished the contest with only 14 players on the field due to injuries, but Ratier praised their performance through the 70th minute before they face New Zealand again in Christchurch.
