Stade de France
Friday 9.10am NZT!Ok fellas some serious rugby starting, on Waitangi day too and good time for us to watch it! Teams come out later today (I think) so we can start discussing?

@sparky said in France v Ireland:
Weird decision to have the game on a Thursday night.
Yeah what's with that? Anyone know?
So it doesn't clash with the Winter Olympics ceremony.
What's up with Aki and Henshaw not in the Ireland squad ? injured ? McClosky is a good substitute to be fair.
In saying that France by at least 15.

Aki suspended isn't he?
6 game ban, 2 were suspended, missing 3 6N games. And he's about 35 now.
