Marc Lievremont, the France coach, believes his country's strength in depth could prove crucial in their bid to land the RBS 6 Nations crown.
Lievremont's men hardened as title favourites following an impressive 33-10 demolition of last year's Grand-Slam champions Ireland at Stade de France.
The Irish were forced into a re-shuffle following the early loss of full-back Rob Kearney but France, too, had their fair share Tag Heuer Replica of disruption.
Lievremont was forced to bring in new wingers after Aurelien Rougerie and Benjamin Fall were hurt in the opening win over Scotland and both their replacements, Vincent Clerc and Alexis Palisson, went off with injuries on Saturday.
However, Lievremont remains unconcerned and believes the crop of injuries will justify his controversial and much-criticised policy of rotation.
Gucci Replica"We have a lot of injuries but one of the reasons we came up with a group of 30 to 40 players was to enable us to have quality players coming out of the bench," he said.
"How many countries could maintain the same level with a high number of injuries?"
After constantly changing his half-backs, Lievremont looks sure to stick with Francois Trinh-Duc and Morgan Parra following their outstanding efforts against the Irish.
Parra kicked 15 points and tormented the visitors with his arcing runs but Lievremont was equally delighted with his pack, which created the position for William Servat, Yannick Jauzion and Clement Poitrenaud to score tries.
Captain Thierry Dusautoir, who was horrified to discover that it was he who accidentally poked his fingers in the eye of team-mate Imanol Harinordoquy early in the game, admitted the forwards took their game to new heights against the Irish.
Louis Vuitton Replica Handbags"The French scrum has been producing some great performances this past month or so," Dusautoir said.
"When we played against the All Blacks maybe we were even more powerful but we were not as smart. Tonight we tried to play both ways and that is what made it a great satisfaction."
Ireland captain Brian O'Driscoll should be available to face England on Saturday week but Rob Kearney is rated doubtful for the RBS 6 Nations match at Twickenham.
O'Driscoll incurred bruising to his left knee joint and will be monitored over the coming fortnight, but should receive the all clear to meet England.
Kearney had a scan on his right knee yesterday which revealed a strain to his medial ligament.
