Rassie Erasmus - Facing Les Bleus in France

Loading player...
The Springboks are bracing for a backlash on Saturday when they take on France in Paris in their second Test of the End-of-Year tour.
The Boks are confident going into the Test against France after their 61-7 victory over Japan at Wembley in London on the weekend - a win that did come at a price due to the injury of loosehead prop Ox Nché.
While the back-to-back World Champions are confident, for Les Bleus, this Test on their own turf will no doubt be personal, and they will see it as a matter of setting the record straight and making a big statement.
Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus warned that no matter how high their confidence is, playing against the French in their own backyard is always a beast of a different nature.
