Update to yesterday's Bib Theory France squad: TBC at the announcement today, but Rugbyrama reports Jelonch is out injured. Bordeaux's Temo Matiu, perhaps, in line for a debut

No. Duponts

France's Bib Theory squad for the Six Nations decider against England on Saturday

Ramos; Attissogbe, Barassi, Moefana, LBB; Jalibert, 9. Dupont; Ollivon, Jelonch, Cros; Meafou, Flament; Aldegheri, Marchand, Gros

Mauvaka, Neti, Colombe / Bamba, Guillard, Auradou, Nouchi, Serin, Gailleton

Matiu yes, Roumat, no. Here's the forwards list the FFR issued on Monday, but looks like Woki might be out now, too

You can't have Boudehent - he suffered a knee injury and isn't in France's 42 for England.

Question mark over Jelonch, too, after his failed HIA v Scotland

Oh

And wrong. Don't forget authoritatively, confidently, assuredly wrong. Enriched weapons-grade nonsense

Brau-Boirie dislocated a finger against Italy. Stayed with the squad and trained and could, perhaps, have played if needed - but, he clearly isn't. Not sure how long he may be absent

Confirmation of the France squad for the weekend's big Six Nations match against Scotland in Edinburgh

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE Le club de l’USON Nevers Rugby souhaite aujourd’hui s’adresser à ses supporters et partenaires.

Coenie Basson and Yannick Osmond sidelined as part of a 'staff reorganisation' at struggling #ProD2 side Nevers, the club confirmed in a statement on its website.

Xavier Pemeja takes temporary charge

They keep breaking - there's 19 out injured right now, and it's been about that figure for a quite a good chunk of the season

West's OOC in June. Probably leaving.

Hastoy's situation is more complex - but Jurd's seen as the future of a bright, young La Rochelle

Of course, this could all have been much more smooth. As it is, expect a sizeable squad overhaul in the summer

France's Wednesday afternoon Bib Theory squad for Scotland.

Ramos; Attissogbe, Depoortere, Moefana, Bielle-Biarrey; Jalibert, Dupont (c); Jegou, Nouchi / Jelonch, Cros; Meafou, Ollivon; Aldegheri, Merchant, Gros

Subs: Mauvaka, Neti, Colombe, Guillard, Flament, Jelonch / Nouchi, Serin, Barassi

Quelles conséquences au classement en cas de forfait de Niort ? Le club de Niort serait sujet au dépôt de bilan et pourrait donc faire forfait général dans le championnat de Nationale. Une mauvaise nouvelle évidemment et qui aurait donc d’importantes conséquences ...

More bad financial news from French rugby's third tier. After Tarbes, now Niort look to be on the brink of bankruptcy, Rugbyrama reports.

Ronan O'Gara's injury-ravaged La Rochelle get back to winning ways with spirited win over Castres O'Gara was without 19 players for the meeting.

🚨 La Rochelle snap 56-day winless streak at Castres
🚨 Toulouse hit 100 Top 14 tries for the season
🚨 Toulon draw at Lyon, but there's an injury concern for France

Me, on the #Top14 weekend so far, for @irishexaminer.bsky.social

www.irishexaminer.com/sport/rugby/...

Have to admit to enjoying the clock ticking over to 10 : 53

100 tries in 18 #Top14 matches for defending champions Toulouse.

Ugo Mola's side have eight more games to score the 19 they need to break their own regular-season record, which they set in the 24/25 campaign

Célian Pouzelgues has just scored Toulouse's 10th try of their 68-13 win over Montauban -- which is also their 100th try of the season

The promo video for this is fun, too

The shirt France will wear for the Six Nations clash against England to mark the 120th anniversary (almost to the day) of the first match between the two sides.
