A France side bolstered by Antoine Dupont will begin their quest to deny Ireland an unprecedented third successive Six Nations title when they launch this year's edition at home to Wales on Friday.

It all kicks off on Friday night in Paris where France are looking to begin a fresh title challenge at home to Wales who seem destined for a wooden spoon battle. Scotland host Italy and, like the French, need a statement victory to kick things off if they are going to present themselves as credible candidates to win the whole thing.

"Backlash France in Lyon last year broke arena records and decibel levels, demonstrating just how loud and passionate our WWE fans in France can be. We believe Clash in Paris and Raw will attract people from around the world to Paris and once again create a true spectacle".

Wales have been boosted by the return of wing Josh Adams, fullback Liam Williams and lock Dafydd Jenkins for their Six Nations opener against France in Paris on Friday, while No. 8 Taulupe Faletau will miss the clash.

His brother Jack, an England back rower at the time, was in the same situation and opted to sign for Antoine Dupont’s Toulouse where he has won the French league and Champions Cup. Jack then signed a new deal in France, barring him from international selection, but Tom opted to return to North London and throw his England hat back in the ring.

Technicians from England and France are set to help restore power to homes and businesses across Ireland following Storm Eowyn.
