End of suspense! Since this Thursday, we have known the list of 23 players who will be on the match sheet for the first meeting of the Fall Tour of the XV of France, against the double South African world champions, this Saturday at the Stade de France.
- ABOUT THE XV OF FRANCE
Romain Ntamack, the confessed trauma
Louis Bielle-Biarrey, the sanction falls before South Africa
A modified first line
Its first line will be completely modified, with the tenure of the trio Baptiste Erdocio – Julien Marchand – Régis Montagne (Mauvaka and Atonio are injured, Gros will start on the bench). In the second row, Thibaud Flament retains his place, and will be supported by Emmanuel Meafou (who was a substitute against Scotland), while Mickaël Guillard, who had been his friend against the XV du Chardon, slides to the third row. The Lyonnais will play alongside Paul Boudehent and Anthony Jelonch (who was a substitute against Scotland).
In the middle, Antoine Dupont is obviously out, and it is Nolann Le Garrec who will replace him, rather than Maxime Lucu (who started against Scotland), alongside the indestructible Romain Ntamack. The wings do not change, with Bordeaux rockets Damian Penaud and Louis Bielle-Biarrey. Captain Gaël Fickou will be aligned in the center, with Pierre-Louis Barassi, Yoram Moefana being injured. At the back, Thomas Ramos will be faithful to the position. For the bench, Fabien Galthié opted for a “6-2”, with six forwards and two three-quarters (Lucu and Depoortere).

XV of France: Ramos – Penaud, Barassi, Fickou (cap.), Bielle-Biarrey – Ntamack, Le Garrec – Guillard, Jelonch, Boudehent – Meafou, Flament – Montagne, Marchand, Erdocio.
