PARIS :France head coach Fabian Galthie made two changes from the team that crushed Ireland in the line-up he named on Thursday to face Scotland in Saturday's Six Nations finale at the Stade de France, bringing in experienced centre Gael Fickou and scrumhalf Maxime Lucu for the injured Antoine Dupont.
Ireland interim boss Simon Easterby is relishing the prospect of some of world rugby’s finest individual talents going head to head during Saturday’s crunch Guinness Six Nations clash with title rivals France.
ROME : Captain Antoine Dupont led France to an overwhelming 73-24 rout of hosts Italy as they ran in 11 tries in an action-packed Six Nations triumph on Sunday, bouncing back in style from their one-point loss to England in their last game a fortnight ago.
Italy felt the full force of a French backlash as Antoine Dupont orchestrated a 73-24 Guinness Six Nations victory in Rome.
PARIS : France coach Fabien Galthie restored Thomas Ramos at flyhalf and named seven forwards on the bench for the Six Nations game against Italy in Rome on Sunday after Matthieu Jalibert was ruled out with illness and with Romain Ntamack still suspended.
PARIS : France coach Fabien Galthie on Thursday named the following team to face England in the Six Nations at Twickenham on Saturday:
France made their Six Nations opener look like a canter as they destroyed Wales on Friday but lost Romain Ntamack through a red card, which ruled the flyhalf out of next weekend's clash against England. Fabien Galthie's side rolled over the visitors in a 43-0 drubbing to add to their three victories in last year's autumn series with Antoine Dupont playing chief tormentor in a scintillating first half. "The team is different when Dupont is here. He is the best player in the world and brings energy to all the players with his talent," Gregory Alldritt said. Dupont was back in the Six Nations after skipping last year's championship to prepare for the Olympics before winning the Rugby Sevens gold, and he returned with a bang. The scrumhalf delivered three assists before being replaced shortly after the interval. Although Dupont had to have his calf strapped, Galthie was reassuring about his condition ahead of next weekend's clash against England in Twickenham. Galthie praised France's discipline, with only three penalties conceded although Ntamack's red card for a shoulder-to-head tackle was a woeful low for the flyhalf. Ntamack was back with France after missing the Six Nations last year and the World Cup through injuries. "There is no question it's a yellow card, whether it's a red is debatable because he doesn't fully engage into the tackle," Galthie argued, despite some damning TV footage.
