To face the XV du Chardon in Edinburgh on February 26, the tricolor staff summoned the center of the LOU and the winger of the RCT. Gabin Villière is out. Bernard Le Roux was not recalled.
The staff of the XV of France has published the list of 42 players selected to face Scotland on Saturday February 26 (3:15 p.m.) in Edinburgh. Gabin Villière, victim of a sinus fracture against Ireland, is forfeited. To replace him, coach Fabien Galthié summoned the Toulonnais Aymeric Luc (24 years old, 0 selection).
Also back from the center three-quarters of LOU Pierre-Louis Barassi (23 years old, 3 selections), which compensates for the package of Jonathan Danty (hit in the ankle against Italy). Confirmation also of the package of Matthieu Jalibert (thigh). As for Teddy Thomas, hit in the hamstrings during the rally before the Six Nations Tournament, he is still too fair to be recalled.
Le Roux replaced by Rebbadj
In front, the pillar of Montpellier Mohamed Haouas is back, in place of Toulousain Dorian Aldegheri. We remember that two years ago, guilty of punching a Scottish player, he was sent off to Murrayfield. No Bernard Le Roux on the other hand, touched against Pau last weekend. The Racingman is replaced in the list by the second-line of the RCT Swan Rebbadj. Racing 92 third row Yoan Tanga and second row Florian Verhaeghe (Montpellier) are also out of the group.

Thomas Ramos. the Toulousain not having entered the game, the tricolor staff accepted that he plays with the Stade in Pau this Saturday (3 p.m.). Donovan Taofifenua and Virimi Vakatawa, who will face UBB with Racing 92 on Sunday evening in Bordeaux, will not join their teammates until Monday morning.
