Zapping Fifteen World 6 Nations Calendar 2024
After Gaël Fickou, Charles Ollivon, and perhaps even Jonathan Danty, two other players from the French XV were injured this weekend, during the match between La Rochelle and Leinster. These two players are two pillars of the Charente-Maritime club: Uini Atonio and Reda Wardi. The first was hit in the knee and the second in the ribs.
Wardi unavailable against the Welsh
For Wardi, it seems that the package for the 6 Nations tournament has already been decided for the first match against the Welsh. According to Sud Ouest, the player would be affected in the rib cartilage and should not return for three or four weeks. For Atonio, on the other hand, the uncertainty is still total because the French international will not take exams before Tuesday. We do not necessarily expect a long-term absence, but we must therefore wait a little longer to know the exact nature of this injury
To summarize
After Gaël Fickou, Charles Ollivon, and perhaps even Jonathan Danty, two other players from the French XV were injured this weekend. One of them should already be unavailable for the next test against Wales. For the second, you have to wait until Tuesday to find out more.
