The Wallabies blew a 12-point lead in a crushing 33-31 loss to Andy Farrell's Ireland in Sydney last weekend, where ill-discipline cost them dearly.It was their eighth defeat in nine Tests and another example of their inability to close out games.Six Nations champions France were similarly devastated after failing to get over the line against the All Blacks in Christchurch, falling 34-32 in a nine-try epic.Despite Australia's patchy form, a France side missing a host of big names remain wary ahead of the clash at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane. "They're an on-and-off team. They're capable of beating anyone," said Galthie."At times they impose their rugby, built on speed and power. Then there are moments of inconsistency. They're a team that blows hot and cold. "But when they're good, you see the roots of the two world titles they have in their trophy cabinet."Australia won the World Cup in 1991 and 1999 but were eliminated in the pool stages in 2023 and are currently ranked eight to France's four.While France have won their last three games against them, all at Stade de France, most recently a 48-33 triumph in November, the Wallabies have traditionally been strong at Suncorp Stadium.They have been victorious in all five Tests against Les Blues at the venue.Nevertheless, they will have their work cut out against an attack-minded outfit, who despite losing to New Zealand were dangerous on the break. Big askFrance are without injured record try scorer Damian Penaud but reinforced by the addition to the starting XV of five players who featured in the Top 14 final between Toulouse and Montpellier late last month.
