The tour of the Blues has not started that the XV of France must already face a package, that of the winger of RCT Gabin Villière.
A verdict that Fabien Galthié did not exclude from the announcement of his list of 42 players late Monday afternoon.
The official press release fell on Tuesday morning, "injured in the hamstrings, Gabin Villière (7 selections, 26 years old) is replaced by Vincent Rattez (8 selections, 29 years old, Montpellier)".
The Toulonnais will miss at least for the first test against Argentina (November 6 at the Stade de France).
This Tuesday, the French staff is awaiting news from the second row of Racing 92 Bernard Le Roux, who suffers from an eardrum.
