France name team to visit Ireland in Six Nations round two
By Liam Heagney
Fabien Galthie has named a France team to play Ireland this Saturday in Dublin that shows no changes from last Sunday’s Guinness Six Nations round one win over Italy in Rome. The French stumbled to a 29-24 Stadio Olimpico success, but Galthie has responded by keeping faith with the same starting XV.
The only two alterations take place on the bench where back-rower Francois Cros and scrum-half Baptiste Couilloud are named as replacements in place of Thomas Lavault and Nolann Le Garrec, subs who didn't get to play in Rome.
FRANCE (vs Ireland, Saturday - 2:15pm): T Ramos; D Penaud, G Fickou, Y Moefana, E Dumortier; R Ntamack, A Dupont; C Baille, J Marchand, U Atonio, T Flament, P Willemse, A Jelonch, C Ollivon, G Alldritt. Reps: G Barlot, R Wardi, S Falatea, R Taofifenua, F Cros, S Macalou, B Couilloud, M Jalibert.

Yeah nah he comes across as a funny bloke, but that stopped abruptly after the Nutcracker Prince debacle✋
Go to commentsAt this point I can’t watch him without thinking he’s a dirty slimebag. He should have been banned for the same amount of time that Quinn was out. It took Tupaea near on a fricking year to get fit enough to play again and his leg will never be the same. The other crap thing is that he was at ABs level and now he has to claw his way back there when he could have had several games under his belt.
