He had an excellent season (champion of France with Racing and finalist of the Champions Cup). There is great progress and he has greater maturity than Baptiste. It seemed logical that we start the season with him, after missing the tour because his club was in the final. Noves said his French squad come into the international Test window without having to worry about fatigue, due to his players being off last weekend but he was quick to point out the end product will not be evident immediately.We had a real weeks work for the first time. On Monday, we have two very hard sessions without worrying about fatigue because the players were off last weekend. It could allow them to recover better.The French international fifteen will not be transformed in one week. This will pay off in time. But if you got there in a week, that would be magic.France team to face Samoa15 Scott Spedding, 14 Yoann Huget, 13 Remi Lamerat, 12 Wesley Fofana, 11 Virimi Vakatawa, 10 Francois Trinh-Duc, 9 Maxime Machenaud.1 Uni Atonio, 2 Guilhem Guirado (cap), 3 Jefferson Poirot, 4 Yoann Maestri, 5 Julien Le Devedec, 6 Loann Goujon, 7 Kevin Gourdon, 8 Louis Picamoles.
