France’s XV: Grand Slam is almost the same as against England

Published on

The only change in the starting XV that remains unchanged in the Grand Slam outlook is that the Blues will have to record the return of their winger Damien Penode against England on Saturday.

Claremontois recovered from the trip to Wales (13-9) after learning that Kovid-19 was positive on the morning of his departure for Cardiff and attended all the sessions this week, which was crucial for his first title. 2022 Six Nations Tournament for Twelve Years.

According to the lessons of Wednesday’s high-intensity training, second-line Paul Willems, who was eliminated yesterday after a fierce battle in the Millennium that played the entire meeting, should also find his place in the first XV.

There is no question of subverting the schedule even after the deadline.

“Stress? We’m not really feeling it right now. We’re still at Marcos, the schedule is the same for all the start of the week, we’re in our routine …”, Gregory Aldritt recently admitted.

In all, eleven players must start in each of the five matches of the 2022 tournament: full-back Melvin Jaminet, center Gayle Fico, third-row Anthony Jelonje, Gregory Aldrit, Props Cyril Bale, Uni Atonio, hooker Julian Marchand, second-row. Paul Willemsey and Cameron Walkie, along with 100% Toulouse Hing, formed Captain Antoine DuPont Schrum Halfway, with Romain Ntamak as his sidekick at the opening.

Besides Penaud, this is the same team that won in Cardiff a week ago. Gabin Villier, on the other hand, will try to show off his speed and percussion qualities.

Fabian Galti is also in the process of leveling his regular squad: the same team that played in the legendary win (40-25) against the All Blacks in November (with the exception of the injured Marchant Mouwaka) except for one player.

The same starting XV started the shock against Ireland (30-24) and won hard at Stade de France.

France, the last unbeaten team in the tournament, can dream of their first Grand Slam since 2010 if they beat England on Saturday (9:00 pm).

Possible works of France XV: Jaminet – Penaud, Fico, Dante, Villier – (o) ntmac, (M) DuPont – Jelonje, Aldrit, Cross – Willemsey, Woki – Atonio, Marchand, Bale

Sub: Mauwaka, Gross, Howas, Taofifenua, Flamingo, Cretin (or Label), Luke, Ramos
