Released by the XV of France on Wednesday, Yoram Moefana has already returned to Marcoussis this weekend. The three-quarters of the UBB could well reshuffle the cards one week before the Blues' match against Japan.
This Wednesday, Fabien Galthié made available to the clubs 19 players from his list of 42 called to prepare the first autumn Test match of the French XV, against Japan in a week. Among the men who left the gathering, the name of Yoram Moefana is listed. However, the situation changed this weekend for the Bordelo-Béglais who could well apply to join the match sheet next Saturday at the Stade de France. According to The Teamthe three-quarters returned on the sly to the National Rugby Center in Essonne this weekend.
The decision rendered this Thursday by the disciplinary committee of the National Rugby League proved conciliatory. Suspended for six weeks because of a dangerous tackle on Jonathan Danty in the Top 14, the sanction was halved. And as he will take part in a tackling awareness course, he will only be suspended for two weeks, which will make him eligible for the Blues' meeting on November 9. According to the same source, he participated in the training session of the XV of France this Saturday, alternating between center and winger positions.
This return of Yoram Moefana risks ejecting Paul Costes or Emilien Gailleton from the France group, with Gaël Fickou acting as executive. Furthermore, the versatility of the Girondin pleads in his favor, he has already been established on the wing by Fabien Galthié who appreciates his profile.
