What has Gregor Townsend said?

“Our first outing of the season was a disappointment and not reflective of the hard work our players have put in over the past two months," he said.

"France are a very dangerous side if you give them space and quick ball to play, which is what we allowed to happen on too many occasions last week. Our focus all week has been to remedy this and also create much more from our attacking game.

“It was a stark reminder of how tough things can be at international level if our standards slip.

"We expect our players to show a much truer picture of themselves this Saturday."
