French World Cup Squad Announced
The French have announced their 30 man squad for the World Cup, with a few surprises included. An odd mix for sure....Chabal included as a lock, no Castaignede who will no doubt retire from internationals now, and seven back rowers.
Seems that the French are basing their tactics around a loose-forward attack. Which might be a good idea if their scrum wasn't as stable as a Sovereign employee after a night at the T-bar.

Backs: Pierre Mignoni, Jean-Baptiste Elissalde, Frederic Michalak, David Skrela, Lionel Beauxis, Yannick Jauzion, Damien Traille, David Marty, Christophe Dominici, Cedric Heymans, Vincent Clerc, Aurelien Rougerie, Clement Poitrenaud
