Gathered at the Marcoussis training center, the players of XV of have finally gotten to the heart of the matter of preparing the 6 Nations Tournament 2025.

6 Nations: first probable composition for France – Wales

Finally, the time of speculation regarding the possible or probable composition of the French XV for its match against Wales at the opening of the 2025 6 Nations Tournament is over. Or at least, the time of blind speculation is over. .

Because that's it, the Blues have carried out their first real collective training session in Marcoussis, from which emerge the main lines of a starting XV where we find the great classics including a reformed Antoine Dupont – Romain Ntamack hinge.

Possible developments before the 6 Nations

This is what the XV of France could look like for its first outing in 2025. A probable composition which could, however, be subject to further evolution.

To the left of the scrum, Jean-Baptiste Gros seems to be holding the rope in view of this Wednesday's session, just like Peato Mauvaka at the back. However, it should be noted that Emmanuel Meafou trained outside the group, The Team reporting a slight contusion to the shoulder which does not call into question his participation.

In 3e line, a possible return of Alexandre Roumat, who must make his return to the Top 14 this weekend, cannot be ruled out but should not reshuffle the cards in the starting XV. Behind, we will also have to follow the evolution of the inner ear problems of Louis Bielle-Biarrey expected in Marcoussis today.
