Ntamack, Alldritt start for France in Ireland Six Nations showdown

SPORTS 06.03.2025

Romain Ntamack and Gregory Alldritt will start for France in this weekend's potential Six Nations title decider at Ireland, head coach Fabien Galthie announced on Thursday.

Text size:

Fly-half Ntamack, 25, makes his first appearance since the first-round win over Wales after missing the defeat to England and victory over Italy with a suspension.

No 8 Alldritt, 27, sat out two training sessions this week due to a groin injury but is included for Saturday's game in Dublin.

A victory for France at Lansdowne Road over top-of-the-table, unbeaten Ireland would open up the race for the Championship before the final round of matches.

Team (15-1)

Thomas Ramos; Damian Penaud, Pierre-Louis Barassi, Yoram Moefana, Louis Bielle-Biarrey; Romain Ntamack, Antoine Dupont (capt); Gregory Alldritt, Paul Boudehent, Francois Cros; Mickael Guillard, Thibaud Flament; Uini Atonio, Peato Mauvaka, Jean-Baptiste Gros

Replacements: Julien Marchand, Cyril Baille, Dorian Aldegheri, Emmanuel Meafou, Hugo Auradou, Oscar Jegou, Anthony Jelonch, Maxime Lucu

Coach: Fabien Galthie (FRA)
