France rugby union make Six Nations clash team changes

pierre France rugby union team have made three changes to their squad for the forthcoming Six Nations match against Scotland on Saturday in Paris.

Dimitri Yachvili, Sebastien Chabal and Chistophe Dominici are the rugby players who are not going to be playing after last weekend's disappointing 26-18 loss to England at Twickenham.

The three new players to take part in the match will be scrumhalf Pierre Mignoni, number eight Imanol Harinordoquy and wing Cedric Heymans, and in addition to these changes, fly-half David Skrela will be replaced by Lionel Beauxis if he hasn't recovered from an injury to his ankle.

Jean-Baptiste Elissalde will be Pierre Mignoni's back-up after Dimitri Yachvili had been dropped from the team on Tuesday.

France rugby union team manager Jo Maso explained that his team need to get back to being proud of their side even when things go against them and he said: "To lose at Twickenham is okay, there is no shame, but you must lose with honour and that wasn't the case."
