Six Nations 2022: Wales aim to go under radar against France

Wales captain Dan Biggar says he is happy for people to be talking about Grand Slam-chasing France ahead of the Six Nations showdown in Cardiff.

Fabien Galthie's side are searching for a potential fourth leg of their first Six Nations clean sweep since 2010, with many observers calling France the best side in the world.

In contrast, defending champions Wales have suffered defeats against Ireland and England and narrowly beaten Scotland, when Biggar kicked a match-winning drop-goal in his 100th international.

«For us, it's going to have to be a huge performance to pick up a result but we are quietly confident,» said Biggar.

«We are quite happy for France, for [Antoine] Dupont, [Romain] Ntamack and Shaun [Edwards] to take all the headlines and the stardust and things.

»We are hoping to go quietly under the radar and do our business on Friday night."

It was almost a year ago that France inflicted Grand Slam heartbreak on Wales in Paris.

After Wayne Pivac's side had led for most of a captivating contest, Brice Dulin crossed at the end to seal a 32-30 home victory.

Wales still lifted the Six Nations title the following weekend but the tournament clean sweep slipped through their fingers.

So is revenge on Welsh minds?

«Not this weekend, we haven't once mentioned it,» insists Biggar.

«We're not bothered if us winning stops France with the Grand Slam or championship.

»We are just worried about making sure we finish on a high."

Wales might have suffered defeat last year against France but displayed a blueprint of how to compete in the face of the Les Bleus revolution.

«It was unfortunate we were playing them in that Grand Slam game in Paris and we couldn't quite get over the line,» said Biggar.

«It's funny that campaign, we won four games up
