Rugby - France - Thierry Dusautoir

.
The French captain Thierry Dusautoir has been named player of the year by the IRB.
A well deserved recognition, for the way he has lead his team on the field, and no doubt outside the field. He also scored the only try of France in the final, like a center, and he delivered some perfect tackles against the all blacks. He also never got a penalty against him in any recent games I can remember of, and he is very serious and concentrated all the time.
Well done Thierry, and well deserved.

Of course now all of France is expecting a victory in the 6 mations of 2012, but... some players are reaching 33 years old, a good age for a referee, not necessarily for a player! and so I would expect France to line up a team in 2012 with the 2015 world cup in mind... like England...
Let the young kids roll in...!
