Rosbifs Rugby is back for a fourth crack at trying to dissect the French oval ball game, and where better to start than with a bumper Pro D2 Season preview? We're already licking our lips at the prospect of plenty of Jouez, coaching chaos and some old fashioned scraps for good measure.
We run the rule over the 16 runners and riders in what is shaping up to be a fascinating season, reflect on round one down in Nationale and sneak a peek at some of the best new stash doing the rounds.
Look out for further deep dives from this season of French rugby over on our YouTube channel - SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out!
