Francais des Jeux Giro Discussion Thread

What do you expect of Francais des Jeux at Italy.
Personally I think it's a weak squad. Geniez may surprise me, or Mourey.

Do you have any expectations?

Weak team, Geniez had super form in the 3 French races mid April, but he disappointed in Romandie. Think they should have brought Sarreau or Manzin, not that the team would be strong then but at least they would have had someone who could ride a sprint.

Just out of curiosity, why did you choose one of the most uninspiring Giro teams for opening a new thread?

Also, out of even more curiosity, looking at your posting history, one could see certain pattern. Not that I find anything wrong about it, but is this some kind of an exercise to see if you can get some new ideas for your betting, or something like that?

Edit: and so that I do not just ask off-topic questions but also contribute to your thread - FDJ will most likely just try to get into breakaways every day, or else they will be totally invisible, most likely

Definitely for some sort of fantasy game.

Nice that you have noticed. I don't bet. Actually I'm a squadleader myself, non pro. Therefore people expect me to know cycling. In some face to face cycling forums I' ll drop some questions to create a discussion. And not the usual questions as 'who Will winn next Giro' but more unusual Ones. So now and Then I sometimes check my knowledge here.

Elissonde's 50kg should provide some fireworks in the steep inclines of the Giro

 

[greenedge]

I really hope so

 

[Sasquatch]

Geniez could go top 15 again. That TT helps him. But his Romandie form is a worry.

 

[johngoat]

To be honest: they make the Giro rediculous with this squad:

Geniez must be their GC contender, scandalous!
Mr. Fischer is their sprinter. Better they won't start at all.

Really sad.

 

[Gloin22]

Reza is their sprinter

Anyway, yep, pretty horrendous. But still that compares to many teams here. Really poor field.
