The France side Wales meet in Cardiff tonight is different to the cliched 'which French team will turn up?' we have become so accustomed to in recent times.
Doubtless due to the Shaun Edwards factor, they seem to have eradicated the lack of discipline and inconsistency that has prevented them from reaching their full potential.
They've always had a fearsome pack - trust me, whenever you finished a game with the French you were nursing plenty of bumps and bruises - and backs capable of producing dazzling rugby. However, a tendency to do something daft, give away a string of needless penalties and self-implode made France their own worst enemies.
