Stade de France: PItch would not thaw

The game was aborted 10 minutes before kick-off on Saturday night after referee Dave Pearson deemed the Stade de France pitch to be unplayable following a week of sub-zero temperatures in Paris.

The Six Nations Council, who ruled out the option of this weekend, met on Tuesday to discuss a new date.
