France thump Scotland in Nice
By Ian Cameron
France humbled Scotland in the first of their Rugby World Cup warm-ups in Nice tonight.
The hosts ran out 32 - 3 victors over Gregor Townsend's charges in what was a night to forget for the men in dark blue.
A brace of tries for both Alivereti Raka and Maxime Médard and one apiece for Gregory Alldritt and Antoine Dupont and eight points from the boot of Camille Lopez were met by a solitary Adam Hastings penalty.
England Head Coach Eddie Jones said Wales was a brilliant World Cup warm-up after his side lost at the Principality Stadium. England suffered a 21-13 loss to Wales as both teams' prepare for the Rugby World Cup that starts next month in Japan.
