The XV of France communicated this Tuesday afternoon the list of 28 players selected to prepare the next trip to Scotland, scheduled for March 8. Two returns to report, those of Jefferson Poirot and Damian Penaud.

The pillar of the Bordeaux-Bègle Union, discarded against Wales, takes advantage of Cyril Baille's package for the end of the VI Nations Tournament (dislocation of the shoulder). The Clermont winger is finally recovering from his injury after having withdrawn in the first three games of this 2020 edition.

Injured cat?

Note the surprise absence of Camille Chat, author of a very nice entry against the Welsh. The hooker would suffer from an adductor injury according to L'Equipe. He is replaced digitally by the Stade Toulousain player, Peato Mauvaka. Three other players complete the squad: Killian Geraci, Cameron Woki and Gabriel Ngandebe.

All these little people have an appointment Thursday evening at Marcoussis. These 28 players will be joined by fourteen others on Sunday, after the 17th day of Top 14.
