France claim convincing victory over Italy in Rome

BY Grant Constable  ·  Saturday Mar 11, 2017

France picked up a bonus-point win over Italy in Rome with a 40-18 win on Saturday, with Gael Fickou in particular having a top match for the visitors. They scored four tries to the two of Italy, who looked tired on defence late in the game.

France host Wales in the final round, with a chance of finishing in the top three of the Six Nations Championship table for the first time since 2011.
