Lukhanyo Am is called up

Interesting happy with Fourie has back up then

[Robespierre]

This is the probable French side for their match against Italy on Friday evening in Lyon.
Antoine Dupont is back in training, but not with the group as a whole, and could surprisingly be considered for the Quarter final, in all probablity against the Boks, but there's no news of a mask he'll surely be obliged to wear
It's a similar story with Julian Marchand (without a mask!) and it'd be a big boost if he's available against South Africa.

15. Ramos ; 14. Penaud, 13. Fickou, 12. Danty, 11. Bielle-Biarrey ; 10. Jalibert, 9. Lucu ; 7. Ollivon, 8. Alldritt, 6. Jelonch ; 5. Flament, 4. Woki ; 3. Atonio, 2. Mauvaka, 1. Baille.

16. Bourgarit, 17. Wardi, 18. Falatea, 19. Taofifenua, 20. Cros, 21. Couilloud, 22. Moefana, 23. Jaminet.

Pretty much first choice with who’s available

I read that Nigel Owen has said there isnt a mask that passes H &S, so none can be worn.

Didn’t Harry Nordequey wear one years ago. I know Edgar Davids did but that was football

I am sure you are right but H & S has been tightened up and Owens said there was not a safely designed mask that is acceptable. We will have to wait and see.

Why is Nigel Owens involved?

Not sure what Nordequey wore can be described as a mask. From memory it was rolled up bandages and lots of tape.

Not sure if its on purpose or not, but his name isn't Harry and his surname is Nordequey.....

Hadn’t see this before but Josua Tuisova 7 year old son passed away last week following a long illness, he’s has decided to stay at the World Cup and missed the funeral. Incredible bravery
