Absent this Sunday afternoon in Marcoussis, while the players selected by Fabien Galthié were training, five days before the first match of the 6 Nations Tournament on Friday against Wales at the Stade de France (9:15 p.m.), Damian Penaud went to take exams who revealed a toe injury that should keep him out of action for about a week. The Bordeaux winger (28 years old, 53 caps) had already had to miss the autumn tests due to a lung infection.
