French Coach Marc Lièvremont believes his side is still amongst the best at the World Cup and suggests the Springboks are the strongest side at the tournament.

Reflecting on France’s 37-17 loss to New Zealand at Eden Park last Saturday, Lièvremont believes defending champions South Africa are the strongest side at the World Cup with their building form over their first three games.

The French play Tonga in Wellington on Saturday at 5pm and need a win to be assured of reaching the quarterfinals.

Meanwhile, there will be a special talkback with the 2007 Flying Fijians coach Ilivasi Tabua on our sister station Viti FM at 12.30pm today.
