What do you reckon our chances are against the French?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

ANALYSIS: In a first test of the year that could conceivably not have featured any debutants, the All Blacks could well now run two in the loose forwards alone, as Wallace Sititi’s injury puts Scott Robertson’s best-laid plans up in smoke for the series against France.

Sititi, last year’s World Breakthrough Player of the Year as well as All Blacks Player of the Year, was last week ruled out of the three-test series due to a high-ankle injury that requires surgery.

What do you reckon our chances are against the French? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
