Wales attack coach Stephen Jones wants revenge on France after losing to the Hane in the 2011 World Cup semifinal.
Ahead of Sunday’s quarterfinal, Jones remembers the 9-8 defeat in Auckland and says: “It’s great fuel to drive you forward to achieve your goals.
“It was a tight game. Even when we were down to 14 we battled hard and it still could have gone either way.
“We had gathered a lot of momentum in that World Cup, and we were in a good place.
“It is unfortunate we lost the game and in the manner which we did.
“There were some wonderful experiences of that 2011 World Cup. Yes, it was disappointing, but that’s sport.
“This is a different group of players, some were involved that day but the vast majority weren’t. “You look at the recent games against France and the boys have had some good success.”
