FRANCE will be looking to recover from a mediocre performance during their 22-12 defeat in Bordeaux last Saturday by levelling the series against South Africa in Paris tomorrow.
"At Bordeaux we missed the fight. We didn't play at all," said French coach Jean Claude Skrela. "Saturday at the Parc des Princes, I expect my men to get up for the match."
Skrela will again have an inexperienced team, still missing a number of veterans due to injuries, but Olivier Merle hopes to return after a month out to anchor the line out.
