France-Wales: this is the poster of the last match of the Blues in the VI Nations Tournament 2023. Fabien Galthié's men face the Welsh on Saturday at 15:45 after their historic success at Twickenham. However, a victory would not be a sufficient condition to win the competition.

Currently second in the standings, behind the Irish, the French are still mathematically in the race for the final victory of the Six Nations Tournament. But they will have to rely on an Irish misstep. In the meantime, after their victorious escapade on Saturday, March 11 in London, Fabien Galthié's men found this week their headquarters in Marcoussis.

The French management had concocted light training, so that the players have the maximum freshness at the end of the tournament. It was also necessary to quickly turn the page Twickenham and put away on the shelves of the archives this jubilant victory against the XV of the Rose to project on the reception of the Welsh.

For the 3rd line Grégory Alldritt, "the objective is to build our victory. What we did last weekend. Admittedly, there was a big gap in the score. But if you look at the first half, we took the points when we had to take them and we were able to build our game."

We must "build our victory"

Gregory Alldritt continued: "I think it will be on the same line this weekend. We are all aware of what we have to do to regain this first place for a few hours. Or more, we hope."

In case of a clear victory against the Welsh, the Blues would indeed recover the first place in the ranking. But to retain their title, they will have to hope that the Irish, who play after them, stumble in Dublin against the English. Otherwise, the Clover XV would succeed in the Grand Slam.
