Versatile loose forward Cameron Woki has been added to the France squad ahead of this weekend’s game in Scotland after an injury to Hugo Auradou.

Pau lock Auradou injured his hamstring in his team’s Top 14 victory over Union Bordeaux-Bègles on Sunday evening and has been withdrawn by Les Bleus.

Woki was in the opposition line-up and scored a try as UBB were beaten 39-17.

The athletic 27-year-old, who can play lock and flanker, has never become a mainstay in Les Bleus’ pack depsite being one of the standout members of the Junior World Cup-winning France U20s team in 2018.

He has won 32 caps to date but hasn’t featured for the reigning Six Nations champions since last summer’s tour to New Zealand.

One of his three Test tries came in a 25-21 World Cup warm-up defeat to Scotland at Murrayfield in August 2023.

Woki has already scored 9 tries for UBB this season!

Great form, but is it enough to get ahead of Jégou, Nouchi, Cros, Boudehent, Ollivon and all the other flankers…?

Six Nations half-term report: 'France lead the charge in struggle for the soul of rugby'

Thanks NB for the elaboration. Very interesting. The mass theory does no more than identify available kilojoules / energy / power.* How that mass is distributed is of course significant in each game. As you surmise, yellow / red cards have a major impact because, even if it is not a forward, how that mass is distributed is affected, sometimes significantly eg England v Scotland and Ireland. But what your analysis amplifies is that the Boks were able to allocate their start and impact mass advantage to maintain, when needed, forward power. And thanks for doing the numbers on Esterhuizen. I repeat, their collective mass was nearly 300 points (combined weight and height) more than the French. That is just about equivalent of a Kolisi (188 cm x 107 kgs) of extra power / energy. What I had not looked at is how the French allocated their mass over the 80 minutes relative to the Bok mass. (Though in net terms their start and impact mass was smaller) Your analysis suggests that they powered up in the second half, which makes sense. But whether it made a net difference in terms of available mass / power is of interest in terms of the dynamic of the game and the onslaught of points in the second half, bearing mind also the disruptive effect of their yellow card.

Thanks again for the breakdown!

Likely the same people that said SA were too old and past it at the start of TRC when they lost. That didn’t age too well either. 🤣🤣

I’m starting to appreciate the subtle difference in risk between ENG’s kick to contest (shorter kicks) and FRA’s kick long strategy.

Ford was kicking too long in SCO and the moment you have one winger chasing, you have a disconnect, which SCO exploited.

You are never going to win every game but when you are so far off and you just keep doing more of the same and hoping for a different result, you can lose people pretty quickly in this game. 🤣🤣

They literally dropped from a 9/10 performance against NZ to a 5/10 performance and good teams don’t allow that level of inconsistency.

Wave of mid-tier players heading abroad is hurting the All Blacks

I haven't followed NZR for a few years but I can't help but feel the relentless drain of talent is a huge net negative. You can argue there is a constant turnover to bring on new blood but there is so much less completion for places as strength in depth is diminished.

Sir,

We at the American government would like to remind you that we are liberating civilians from [oil rich nation] because [CIA installed dictator] is a threat to world peace and is stockpiling [Chemical/Biological/Nuclear] weapons. We must save the [non-white people] from this tyrant and support [US puppet] in the name of Freedom and Democracy.

It’s not just the kicking game, it’s having the personell on the pitch who know when and be able to alter course if that is not working.

Ford has over 100 caps. Is not a novice. Yet does not have a running game in his armoury so relenkessly keeps to plan A.

So who benefits from these proposed changes?

It sounds to me that these proposed adjustments to the laws coming from Aus/NZ are still really about television and associated revenue and capturing the casual or new to the sport viewer. Which is why the game turned pro in the first place. Rugby league is a great game and it is not rugby union and vice versa. Do Rugby Australia really think that they will capture market share from League? Why not introduce the mark anywhere on the field to see if they can snag some Aussie Rules fans as well?

Rob Penney on Chay Fihaki's 'best in the world' skillset

Oh, too much to talk about the crusaders when they defeat a team like the chiefs but not mentioning losing at home from an Australian team ,like half a century with the title super rugby champions 2025 in the cabinet. I remember when the chiefs played crusaders in Fiji 2019 ,round 16 ,when they were leading 20 to nil and chiefs came from behind and won the game ,40-27. So be rest assured that chiefs can always come back.
