Shouldn't be* rather

Guy Noves is an amazing coach, it should be that much of a surprise France have improved under him. They might've finished 5th in the 6N, but they still looked much better than they have in ages, and they beat Argentina away in the summer. How they do against Australia will be a good sign of where they're at

France turn it over, kick it out and that will be it. France once again looked like the team that made the 2011 World Cup Final and they played much better than their IRB ranking of 8th would have suggested. Samoa was out of their depth in this encounter. It was France all the way.
