Ntamack, Ramos, Cros… like Dupont, several Toulouse residents left to rest and absent in Lyon

Stade Toulousain will present a reshuffled team, Sunday (9:05 p.m.), during its trip to Lyon for the 12th day of Top 14. After the success achieved in Exeter in the Champions Cup last weekend, Toulouse coach Ugo Mola has in fact decided to grant a week’s vacation to six of his French internationals. In addition to Antoine Dupont, victim of a sprained thumb on his left hand and gone to New York to recharge his batteries, Thomas Ramos, Romain Ntamack, François Cros, Julien Marchand and Matthis Lebel were placed on rest and will therefore not play facing the LOU.

Returns of Jelonch and Baille?

These players were absent from the resumption of training this Tuesday afternoon, as was hooker Guillaume Cramont, injured in an ankle against Exeter and unavailable for several weeks. Among the absentees, Dimitri Delibes, Richie Arnold, Nepo Laulala and Kalvin Gourgues will be missing on the LOU pitch while Santiago Chocobares was spared due to a crutch received in England.

On the other hand, good news, international Anthony Jelonch could take advantage of the numerous absences to regain his place. The French third row has fully recovered from his concussion suffered two weeks ago against Racing 92. In addition to Jelonch, Pita Ahki, Cyril Baille and Alban Placines, who have returned to collective training, are also applying for the weekend’s meeting next.
