Le troisième ligne Charles Ollivon et le centre Gaël Fickou pourraient faire leur retour dans le XV de départ pour le match face à la Nouvelle-Zélande samedi 16 novembre (21h10), tandis que le capitaine des Bleus Antoine Dupont a été ménagé lors de l’entraînement avec opposition, mardi 12 novembre, à Marcoussis.

Premier capitaine du XV de France du mandat de Fabien Galthié avant qu’Antoine Dupont ne prenne le relais, Ollivon n’avait pas participé à la large victoire contre le Japon (52-12), laissé hors du groupe mais conservé en tant que réserviste.

A l’entraînement mardi, il portait une chasuble de probable titulaire, associé en troisième ligne à Grégory Alldritt et Paul Boudehent, François Cros étant forfait après une commotion.

Fickou, sur le banc face au Japon, pourrait lui retrouver une place de titulaire au centre, associé à Yoram Moefana.

Avec les absences de Damian Penaud (malade) et Théo Attissogbe (entorse du genou), le Toulonnais Gabin Villière devrait faire son retour sur une aile, Louis-Bielle Biarrey, occupant l’autre. À l’arrière, le Bordelais Romain Buros pourrait connaître sa première cape, préféré à Léo Barré.

Antoine Dupont a lui été ménagé, s’entraînant à l’écart avec un groupe de joueurs: le pilier droit Uini Atonio, en délicatesse avec un mollet et le deuxième ligne Thibaud Flament.

Touché à la crête iliaque (bassin), Flament était sorti après à peine une demi-heure de jeu face au Japon. En cas de forfait, le polyvalent Alexandre Roumat pourrait débuter en deuxième ligne plutôt qu’en troisième ligne.

'Passionate reunion of France and New Zealand shows Fabien Galthie is wrong to rest his stars'

Where? I remember saying "unders"? The LNR was formed by the FFR, if I said that in a way that meant the 'pro' side of the game didn't have an equal representation/say as the 'amateur' side (FFR remit) that was not my intent.


But also, as it is the governing body, it also has more responsibility. As long as WR looks at FFR as the running body for rugby in France, that 'power' will remain. If the LNR refuses to govern their clubs use of players to enable a request by FFR (from WR) to ensure it's players are able to compete in International rugby takes place they will simply remove their participation. If the players complain to the France's body, either of their health and safety concerns (through playing too many 'minutes' etc) or that they are not allowed to be part in matches of national interest, my understanding is action can be taken against the LNR like it could be any other body/business. I see where you're coming from now re EPCR and the shake up they gave it, yes, that wasn't meant to be a separate statement to say that FFR can threaten them with EPCR expulsion by itself, simply that it would be a strong repercussion for those teams to be removed (no one would want them after the above).


You keep bringing up these other things I cannot understand why. Again, do you think if the LNR were not acting responsibly they would be able to get away with whatever they want (the attitude of these posters saying "they pay the players")? You may deem what theyre doing currently as being irresponsible but most do not. Countries like New Zealand have not even complained about it because they've never had it different, never got things like windfall TV contracts from France, so they can't complain because theyre not missing out on anything. Sure, if the French kept doing things like withholding million dollar game payments, or causing millions of dollars of devaluation in rights, they these things I'm outlining would be taking place. That's not the case currently however, no one here really cares what the French do. It's upto them to sort themselves out if they're not happy. Now, that said, if they did make it obvious to World Rugby that they were never going to send the French side away (like they possibly did stating their intent to exclude 20 targeted players) in July, well then they would simply be given XV fixtures against tier 2 sides during that window and the FFR would need to do things like the 50/50 revenue split to get big teams visiting in Nov.
