One French Six Nations change for Wales

Mar 16, 2017 - 10:22 AM French rugby coach Guy Noves has made just one change to his starting line-up to face Wales in their final Six Nations match.

Noves has largely kept faith with the players who scored four tries in a comfortable 40-18 win over Italy last weekend in Rome.

Having recovered from back problems, lock Sebastien Vahaamahina will start at the expense of Julien Le Devedec, who has been named on the bench.

France can finish second in the tournament if they beat Wales at the Stade de France on Saturday and England win in Ireland.

FRANCE (15-1):

Brice Dulin, Noa Nakaitaci, Remi Lamerat, Gael Fickou, Virimi Vakatawa, Camille Lopez, Baptiste Serin ; Louis Picamoles, Kevin Gourdon, Fabien Sanconnie, Yoann Maestri, Sebastien Vahaamahina, Rabah Slimani, Guilhem Guirado, Cyril Baille.

Res: Camille Chat, Uini Atonio, Eddy Ben Arous, Julien Le Devedec, Damien Chouly, Antoine Dupont, Francois Trinh-Duc, Yoann Huget.
