Merde! We should have won that, but panicked at a last minute lineout and failed to seal what would have been a well deserved win.

Loose ball from a lineout followed by a scrum half pass to nobody when the ball could have been kicked off the pitch!

However the young and inexperienced French side can consider themselves very unfortunate - it was a result that the Wallabies needed a whole lot more...
