A XV of France with a strong Toulouse accent on Saturday evening at the Stade de France. Against Australia, eight players from Stade Toulousain will be on the match sheet, seven will start.
Ramos at the back, Baille holder
In the first line, Cyril Baille will start the game. He who only played 36 minutes last weekend in Bayonne for his big return to competition. Julien Marchand will start at the heel. Thibaud Flament and Anthony Jelonch are also present in the starting XV, in the second and third row.
Unsurprisingly, Antoine Dupont (captain) and Romain Ntamack will form the hinge. The Toulouse opener has not played for two months following an ankle injury. Author of a magnificent start to the season and taking advantage of Melvyn Jaminet’s package, Thomas Ramos will have the opportunity to express himself at the back and probably in front of the poles.
