Aurélien Rougerie is only the fifth player to captain a RWC team whilst starting on the wing after Mike Harrison (ENG, 87), Ieuan Evans (WAL, 91), Philippe Saint-Andre (FRA, 95) and Vasil Katsadze (GEO, 03)

This is the first Rugby World Cup 2011 match to be played in Napier and the other one will also involve Canada (against Japan). The only other RWC match to be played here also involved Canada who won 33-4 against Tonga in 1987
We are only minutes from kick off as the teams emerge from the tunnel.
Vincent Clerc is in the try scoring form of his career, touching down in four successive tests before tonight. He needs two tries to equal France's record Rugby World Cup try scorer Christophe Dominici on eight
The France half back partnership of Parra and Trinh-Duc play together for the 16th time, the most matches for a starting 9 and 10 partnership for France in over 20 years, since Berbizier and Mesnel played 17 times together
Canada have selected exactly the same 22 as they used in the match against Tonga last week. They are the first team at Rugby World Cup 2011 to select the same 22 players in two matches
