In the South of France village of Paillar, everyone is rugby-obsessed and even the roundabouts are oval! The Paillar team is afraid of one thing only: that some Englishmen will turn the local pub into a tea salon! When the All Blacks look for sparring partners to train for the World Cup, the Paillar star players - Light Bulb, Fat Neck, the Anaesthetist, Trumpeteer and Romeo - can't resist the call of the southern hemisphere. Cauliflower ears, broken noses and black eyes aplenty!
