Allez le change as France coach seeks perfection

MARC LIEVREMONT insists France are by no means the finished article after making six changes to the line-up that dismantled Scotland for Saturday’s clash with Ireland.

Lievremont got his tenure as Les Bleus coach off to a great start on Sunday with a 27-6 victory at Murrayfield, but has still been left wanting more from his young squad.

He has changed half of his pack for the visit of the Irish to Paris, while Vincent Clerc and Francois Trinh-Duc — two of his stellar performers at the weekend — have been demoted to the bench in the backs.
