Fabien Galthié and Raphaël Ibanez, respectively coach and manager of the XV of France, unveiled on Monday the list of 42 players selected for the November tests against Argentina (November 6), Georgia (November 14) and the All Blacks ( November 20).

The French executives (Dupont, Ntamack, Alldritt, Valkatawa, Fickou, Le Roux) who were absent during the summer tour in Australia are logically making their comeback in blue.

In the absence of Charles Ollivon, injured, the name of the captain will be revealed on Sunday.

Antoine Dupont, Grégory Alldritt, Julien Marchand and Gaël Fickou are candidates for the armband.

Favorite Hastoy in Carbonnel

Some players who shone against the Wallabies in June have won the right to return to the France team.

We think of the back of Perpignan, Melvyn Jaminet, in the center of La Rochelle, Jonathan Danty, or the winger of RC Toulon, Gabien Villière.

The Palois Antoine Hastoy was preferred to Louis Carbonnel (RCT) as third choice for the opener, behind Romain Ntamack and Matthieu Jalibert.

Some newcomers are emerging in the French group: Toulouse second row Thibaud Flament, UBB mainstay Thierry Paiva, Racing 92 winger Donovan Taofifenua, UBB rear Romain Buros and center de Clermont Tani Vili, were summoned in blue.
