This Saturday, November 16 on the pitch of the Stade de France, during the success against New Zealand, the third in a row (30-29), the XV of France lost several of its players.
It hit hard in Saint-Denis. Very strong. And the Blues, as much as the Blacks – who had lost Samipeni Finau from the start (2) and Jordie Barrett just before the break (37) – left feathers with Avoid Tatafu, Romain Taofifenua et Paul Boudehent on the side. And we already know that one of the three French players who came out during the match will not be able to play against Argentina next Friday (November 22, 9:10 p.m.), for the third and final test of November.

The Bayonne right pillar, who was celebrating his second cape, was the first to leave his team, hit in a tackle as he came to challenge the opposing “22” line. “Tevita is a crutch,” said Fabien Galthié a little less than an hour after the final whistle about the man who was replaced by Rochelais Georges-Henri Colombe.

“The other two are HIA protocols (concussion, Editor’s note), we are waiting for the results,” continued the Blues coach, who specified that “Romain was not able to return”. Not having satisfied the protocol, the second row of Racing 92 is therefore forfeited for the test against the Pumas.
