The Bleuets completed their first outing with a victory (40-29). It took place on the Pierre-Camou pitch at the Marcoussis National Rugby Center. The Italians fought and offered good resistance against the young French at home. But they end up giving in.

The Bleuets starting XV: 15. Roche ; 14. Rates, 13. Cowie, 12. Taccola, 11. Leveque; 10. Keletaona, 9. Daroque ; 7. Britz, 8. Andjiserramtchi, 6. Deliance ; 5. Samba Song, 4. Samson; 3. Sorhaindo, 2. Algay, 1. Jean Christophe.
Entered into play: 16. Aouad, 17. Akrab, 18. Megherbi, 19. Punti, 20. Chalus Cercy, 21. Loop, 22. Motassi, 23. Jurd, 24. Granell, 25. Belaubre, 26. Rocher, 27. Noon.
