France coach: Fabien Galthié
Consecutive second-place finishes have left France frustrated in the last couple of editions of the tournament.
They head into this one as favourites, but Ireland roll into Paris in Round 2 and if they can get the home crowd riled up against their own team, the Irish could land a potentially deadly blow to Fabien Galthié's men.
It feels like they won't get a better shot, but will they take it?
France will finish: 2nd
