Zapping Fifteen World 6 Nations Calendar 2024
Japan faces the XV of France on Saturday evening and Fabien Galthié has the advantage of finding many of his executives, even if he has put some of them a little “aside” to make way for young people. Among the returning executives, there is necessarily Antoine Dupont, but the scrum half is not necessarily the one who attracts the attention of the coach of the opposing team, Eddie Jones.
Ramos, the “true all-rounder”
The Australian tactician admitted to Midi Olympique that he was a big fan of another Blue, who also plays in Toulouse: Thomas Ramos. Eddie Jones particularly praises the player's versatility. He is also very interested in two other players, who play in Bordeaux: Damian Penaud and Louis Bielle-Biarrey.
There are several. Everyone is rightly talking about Dupont, but I think any team in the world would want Thomas Ramos. He's a real versatile 10-15, he has a long kick, he's fast, he's aggressive, he's a scorer… He's a very useful player in a team. I am also thinking of Louis Bielle-Biarrey who has excellent support. On the other wing, you have Damian Penaud who is as strong as any third line… I think it's an excellent back triangle.
To summarize
