Fabien Galthié and his staff are strengthening their group to prepare for the second match of the Six Nations Tournament scheduled for Saturday in Scotland (3:15 p.m.).

Seven players are called up this Sunday after Friday evening's rout suffered against Ireland (17-38) in Marseille: three backs and four forwards.

These seven players join the group of 28 selected for the match against Ireland (23 on the match sheet + 5 reserves).

Under the amendment to the agreement between the FFR and the League, the coach can summon 34 players at the start of each week at Marcoussis to prepare for the following weekend's match.

Among the initial group, it is necessary to remove the pillar Reda Wardi, victim of an injury to the left wrist on Friday, and Paul Willemse, who received a direct red card and will be suspended for several weeks.

Léo Barré also recalled

To make up the numbers during training, the staff therefore called the Toulonnais Dany Priso, left pillar (30 years old) and Matthias Halagahu, 2nd line (22 years old).

They will be accompanied by Thomas Laclayat, right pillar of Racing 92 (26 years old), Alexandre Roumat, 3rd row of Toulouse (26 years old), Léo Barré, opener of the Stade Français (21 years old), Nicolas Depoortère, center of the UBB ( 21 years old) and Émilien Gailleton, center of Pau (20 years old).

The latter five were already in the group before Ireland but had been made available to their club for the Top 14 this weekend.

The Blues will play a clash on Saturday at Murrayfield, the lair of the XV du Chardon.

Saturday afternoon, at the conclusion of the first day of the Tournament, Finn Russell's teammates created a small sensation by winning 27-26 in Cardiff, Wales.

This has not happened to them since 2002.
