Few in New Zealand know all the French players and Dave Rennie as well as Brad Weber.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod brings in the former All Blacks, Stade Francais and Chiefs halfback to give us the lowdown on both teams before Saturday's first test!.

He explains how French rugby thinks, why Bordeaux's systems are likely to shape France's attack this week, and whether the absence of Toulouse's stars—including Antoine Dupont—really changes the contest. 

The crew also debates the All Blacks midfield combination, Beauden Barrett's role under Rennie, South Africa v England and Australia v Ireland.
