Jonathan Dany and Arthur Vincent form a stimulating combination at center while Baptiste
Couillard and Louis Carbone fill in for Antoine Dupont and Matthieu Jailbird. Up front, there is
also just one debutant in hooker Gaytan Bardot, with Jean-Baptiste Gros and Dembo Bamba
carrying out the front-row. Killian Geraci and Romain Tamoxifen are at lock in what will be a
powerful duo, with Dylan Cretin, captain Anthony Julich and Sekou Macao negotiating off the
pack.
PSA names preliminary 36-man France squad
France coach Philippe Saint-Andre has named a largely tried and tested team in readiness for a
tournament which will define his four-year reign Philippe Saint-Andre unveiled his World Cup
squad on Tuesday morning and among the 36 names there were a few wonders. Three of the
squad involved in France’s last Test match, the 55-35 defeat to England at Ickenham, miss out

France, instead preferring to pair Wesley Fofana with Mathieu Astraeus.

ign and it’s in evidence in his half-back selection. The French media has been pressing the
claims of Bordeaux fly-half Pierre Bernard in recent weeks, while Grenoble’s Jonathan
Wisniewski the Top 14’s important points scorer this season with 325 was also suggested.
Instead, PSA has gone with what he knows, selecting Morgan Parra, Sebastien Tillous-
Borde and Rory Kockott as his scrum-halves with Francois Trinh-Duc, Remi Tales and Frederick
Michalak his tens.
The trio of scrum-halves are all fine players but it’s at fly-half where France has problems. Trinh-
Duc, who won the last of his 49 caps in February 2014, has been out for six months with a
broken leg. He’s performed well in patches since his return in March, but against Stade François
on Saturday the Montpellier fly-half came off another best in his duel with Mourne Steyn. Tales
has made little impression on the international stage in his 16 appearances and Michalak was

Champions Cup semi-final against Leinster.
Fly-half has been the problem position for France for more than a decade and there will be few
opponents having snoozing nights in the coming months at the prospect of coming up against
Tales, Trinh-Duc or Michalak.
Out wide PSA has gone for Sofiane Gaitonde, Yoann Hugged and Noa Nakatani, which means no
place for Teddy Thomas, the exciting Racing Metro wing who just a few months ago was the
toast of France after his unbelievable solo try against Australia. Injured against Ireland in the Six
Nations, Thomas has struggled with fitness and form ever since. Scott Sledding and Brice
Dulcin will vie for the full-back slot but not Maxime Medard, tipped by many in France to be in
the squad after a strong spell with Toulouse.
Ian McKinley misses out in numbers game as Italy name World Cup squad
Ian McKinley has lost out in the numbers game for Italy’s World Cup squad with head coach
Conor O’Shea deciding to take just two out halves among his 31-man panel for next month’s
tournament in Japan. The 29-year-old Dublin-born player played 51 minutes of the recent 29-10
defeat to Ireland at the Aviva ground, his ninth Test appearance for the Azzurri.
Former Ireland fullback O'Shea has decided to bring three scrum halves and two out halves to
Japan, with Tommaso Allan and Carlo Canna battling it out for the No 10 shirt. The three scum
halves named are Tito Tebaldi, Callum Bradley and Edgardo Padovano. O’Shea has identified an
upset win over South Africa as a possible path out of a tough Pool B. The Italians have also been
drawn with world victors New Zealand, Namibia and Canada.

4. Recently, we have shown that we can play against the top teams when we play our best game.
At the World Cup we absolutely must win against Namibia and Canada and then focus on the
other two big challenges we have. I believe that against South Africa, with this team, we can
create an opening on our day. Italy beat South Africa 20-18 in Florence in O'Shea's first year in
charge but have never got so much as a draw against New Zealand in 15 attempts.

A 13-try, 85-15 victory over Russia at San Benedetto del Tron to on Saturday should send the
Italians off to Japan with a spring in their step. Shea said choosing his 31-man squad, and
updating the players that missed out, had been the toughest job he had faced in his rugby
career.
Number eight Sergio Patrisse will captain the squad at his fifth World Cup and hooker Leonardo
Giardini was also selected despite suffering a serious knee injury in the Six Nations earlier this
year. Arise, Giardini and utility forward Alessandro Zanna, who have all played more than 100
times for their country, will form an experienced core to a youthful squad.
Leo, together with Patrisse and Zane, are playing the last games in the Italy shirt of their
extraordinary careers, O’Shea added. We want to make their dreams come true and we have
the cards to be able to succeed. South Africa have suffered a blow to their preparations after
loose forward Marcell Coetzee was ruled as he will undergo ankle surgery on Wednesday that
will sideline him for 12 weeks.

5. The Boks have also released four players for domestic Currie Cup duty at the weekend, which
suggests they will struggle to make the final World Cup squad as the team continue to prepare
this week in Bloemfontein. They are props Liz Goroka and Thomas du Toit, lock Marvin Oria and
central Andre Esterhuysen.
South Africa open their campaign against New Zealand in Yokohama on September 21st.
Elsewhere, Juan Manuel Leguizamo will follow a select group of Argentines to have played in
four World Cups after he was named in the country's 31-man squadron. The 36-year-old back
row, who made his international debut in 2005, will join Felipe Contepomi, Agustin Pichon, and
Argentina coach Mario Ledesma as the only players from the South American nation to have
realized the feat.
