Change for the XV of France. A few days before facing Ireland for the second day of the Six Nations Tournament, Saturday April 2, Annick Hayraud and her staff made slight changes on Tuesday March 29.

Present in the enlarged group to prepare for the match against Italy, the mainstay of Stade Bordelais, Yllana Brosseau leaves the group, on forfeit. She had not been selected on the match sheet against the Transalpines. Recovering from an injury, the emblematic Safi N’Diaye will return to the tricolor group. The Montpellier player will not come alone since Maïlys Traoré, the pillar of the 24 selections, has also been called up, to compensate for Brosseau’s package. Both are applying to play on Saturday.

Coach Annick Hayraud will announce Thursday the composition of the team which will meet, in Toulouse, the Irish revengeful after their defeat at home against the Welsh (27-19).
