The playmaker for the All Blacks recently shared his thoughts on French rugby in an interview with L’Equipe, praising the renowned Stade Toulousain.
Embracing the French Style of Play
“While I don’t mean to undermine the French team, it’s tough for me to comment on them right now because just today (Monday) we have analyzed our match against Ireland. Tomorrow (Tuesday) will be when we start focusing on France. (He smiles.) Rest assured, we’ll be well-prepared for our opponent by Saturday. Part of our preparation will hinge upon what we can expect from them. I absolutely admire how the French manage to create chaos in their game. Antoine Dupont is exceptional at thriving in this kind of environment, exhibiting a remarkable freedom and flair. I love watching Toulouse play as they showcase such beautiful rugby.”
Beauden Barrett’s Appreciation for French Rugby
