French support for mission impossible

FRANCE flanker Julien Bonnaire has admitted that his team will become temporary Irish fans tomorrow as World Cup Pool D reaches a nervous finale.

The French take on Georgia in Marseille at noon where they are expected to pick-up a victory as well as a bonus point which will guarantee them a last eight place.

But they also want Ireland to defeat group leaders Argentina in Paris tomorrow, a result which would give the French top spot and avoid the All Blacks in the quarter-finals.
