TACTICS
- In the heavy wind and rain, focus on a traditional french league set piece based game. Look to the rolling maul as an option from the lineout and use the 8 to pick and go from the base of the scrum, committing defenders to the breakdown
- In our own half play the territory game, looking to clear the lines where possible, making touch. Use the up and under when out of the 22, with Smith, Hooper and Ranger looking to challenge in the air, where they are really strong
- In attacking possession, look to tie in defenders with Ouedraogo, Hooper and Mowen all great at picking and going around the corner
- FTD plays flat on the gainline with three options;
- with back row, Strauss and Retallick offering the powerful crash runners on the inside and pop
- FTD to look to take it on physically with back row clearing out
- look to runners in behind back rows to release Fofana on the fade or Ranger on the cut back
- In defence, we look to slow the ball by committing to the break down. We don't mind encouraging the opposition to look for the outside channels, as handling conditions will be tough. FTD leads the rush defence, with 9 sweeping and the blindside wing and full back covering for the kick return
- IMPACT - Mako, Timani, Qera all big carrying options from the 50th minute against a tired defence

Tactics:
Breakdown- backed up by the likes of Hibbard etc, Robshaw and Kvesic to work in tandem to ensure we always have a flanker to secure quick ball. Otherwise do not overcommit to ball already going to one side for definite.
Attack- carries from the pack or pops off 10 when slow ball, using Robshaw as first receiver when helpful, then look to be very freestyle with quick ball, looking to play off Care attacking the fringes, with the flankers linking, Morgan in support as a rampaging 2nd phase carrying option off the inside backs and Giteau and Hook both secondary play makers. The back 3 and Trinder to come in for clever lines out of position and leave the defence having to guess what angle the attack is coming from. When the ball goes straight to Giteau, he will play flat and attack the line, but we will mix attacking off 9 and using Robshaw, Morgan, Giteau, Hook and Brown at first receiver.
Defence- huge workrate from the flanks who both regularly notch over 20 tackles and will look to be aggressive off the fringes. Drift defence as it suits our backs but with our pack and Care helping the scramble and Brown marshalling at the back
Scrum- look to dominate and drive forward as much as possible, with Morgan running off the base to set up backrow moves with our linking flankers, give Care space to attack off the offload or feed straight to Giteau playing flat. Really attack their scrum, we are world class here
Lineout- the backrow give us lots of options, look to mix it up and play attacking moves off the top. Target Youngs' throwing.
Kicking- Care NOT to box kick but to use 10, 12 and 15 as his outs. He can use his attacking kicking as much as needed and this is a weapon. All kicks to be chased hard. Our back 3 will run back, not kick back, kicks
Subs- We have a like for like replacement for Morgan if he tires and tyros in the backline with 10 and 12 very flexible
Overall- look to be very attacking and mix up our angles of attack

STADE FRANCAIS

02. Tom Youngs 10. Owen Farrell(k)
03. Blaise Dumas
04. Alexandre Franquart11. Digby Ioane
05. Pascal Pape (C) 12. Morne Steyn
06. Arthur Chollan 13. Krisnan Inu
07. Mathieu Ogena 14. Monty Ioane

With the conditions not being particuarly easy to play free flowing rugby in, we're looking to go for territory. Two kicking options at 10 and 12 mean we can get down into the oppo 22, and try to use attacking lineouts. Tom Youngs offers a good hooking option with Bonfils replacing him after 60 mins.. Flanquart and Pape carry the ball and look to make ground, with Parisse the real attacking force in the forward pack. Dupuy will look for quick ball to unlock the talented backs. Digby Ioane will use his pace to try and get over the gainline and make good ground. Huget will also look to run the ball and look for tries.
Plisson, Bonneval and lyons will all come on too boost the side as we look to take advantage of the tiring defence..

Set piece - use scrum as a restart, quick ball with a front row used to playing together. Mumm to call lineout, use Read and Johnson as second options. Target their lineout as they lack an established caller
Breakdown - work in pairs, one to smash Hooper who can be got at physically and second man in to secure ball. On their ball be selective, look to maintain a strong defensive line and only look for the turnover when its on, Launchbury and Read to support the flankers
Attack - Ewers as our primary tight carrier, go tight to the ruck and tie in their defenders then spin out with Cruden and Slade both able to playmake, with runners like Hill and Folau off their shoulder
Defence - no weak link in the backs, use the boots to get us into the right areas, we think they lack a second kicker in the backs so happy to play a territorial game
