The physical nature of the Quilter Nations Series encounter between France<\/a> and South Africa<\/a> on Saturday has taken its toll, with Fabien Galthie<\/a> losing his second starter from the defeat.<\/p>\n

A day after France confirmed that No.8 Micka\u00ebl Guillard had withdrawn from the squad with Pierre Bochaton<\/a> taking his place, loosehead prop Baptiste Erdocio<\/a> has also been replaced in the squad by Dany Priso.<\/p>\n

The Montpellier<\/a> prop has picked up a knee injury, although he was originally named in the squad that will prepare to take on Fiji<\/a> this weekend, suggesting the injury may have come in training.<\/p>\n

These are just the latest additions to what is an ever-increasing injury list for Les Bleus, with several superstars members of that list.<\/p>\n

South Africa, meanwhile, have escaped from the contest unscathed, though they wait to hear the outcome of Lood de Jager\u2019s hearing following his red card.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a lot of sore bodies, so recovery has been massive for us, but we have no injury concerns,\u201d said assistant coach Tony Brown.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, Lood has to go through a hearing, so we won\u2019t find out if he\u2019s available for selection until after that.\u201d<\/p>\n
