Toulouse: which players against Racing?
The Toulousains were triggered yesterday in an unprecedented configuration. Inventory before the trip to Racing.
To get into the playing conditions of the Defense Arena on Sunday evening, Stade Toulousain is training this week on the synthetic pitch. But in an unprecedented configuration since it is recalled that the selected players are currently in Marcoussis to prepare for the autumn tour with the France team.
Mallia injured
And for now, he still keeps Rory Arnold selected by Australia for his European tour.
But not the Argentinian Juan-Cruz Mallia injured in the shoulder, who will be absent for two to three weeks and therefore forfeit the test against France.
The position where the Stadium is in the most difficulty numerically is the hooker position since two players (Julien Marchand and Peato Mauvaka have been called up). It is logically the young Guillaume Cramont who should appear on the scoresheet with, however, a reserve because he is returning from injury. To supervise it, the staff has four pillars (David Ainu’u, Rodrigue Neti, Charlie Faumuina and Paulo Tafili). In the second row, the two Arnold and Yannick Youyoutte can form the team while to compose the third row, Selavasio Tolofua, Alban Placines and Antoine Miquel are favorites.
In the scrum, Alexi Balès and Baptiste Germain share the post, associated with Tim Nanaï-Williams at the opening. In the center, Pita Ahki – Zack Holmes is a possible association while Lucas Tauzin can also play in this position or on the wing in the company of Arthur Bonneval or Dimitri Delibes. Finally, at the rear, the stainless steel Maxime Médard.
But this inventory may change depending on the players of the France team who will be made available to their clubs this evening.
