France complete clean sweep
France ended an unbeaten tour of the southern hemisphere yesterday with a comfortable 34-9 win over Fiji. The French ran in four unanswered tries to maintain a perfect record on their end-of- season tour which included two wins over Argentina. The French No 8 Thomas Lievremont, full-back Arthur Gomes, winger Philippe Bernat- Salles and replacement full-back David Autagne scored the tries while the fly-half Thomas Castaignede kicked four conversions, a penalty and a drop-goal. Fiji's points all came from the boot of the fly-half, Nikki Little, who kicked three first-half penalties.
