Sun February 22 – Wed March 4, 2026

Just two weeks into the Six Nations, France are the only team still in with a chance of the Grand Slam. They’ve humbled Ireland and annihilated Wales, but Fabien Galthie still sees room for improvement. It’s why he’s tinkered with the lineup for today’s Round 3 clash with Italy for the Giuseppe Garibaldi Trophy.

He’s brought heavyweights Thibaud Flament and Emmanuel Meafou into the starting XV in place of Charles Ollivon and Mickael Guillard in an effort to bolster the scrum, which is a testament to just how far the Azzurri have come.

After stunning Scotland in their Championship opener, Gonzalo Quesada’s men could and probably should have beaten Ireland last week. They carved out plenty of openings but just weren’t able to make them count. One area they dominated hands-down, however, was the scrum.

They’ll have to squeeze every drop out of it at Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Lille, because this Les Bleus team has been poetry in motion. With the Three Musketeers of Thomas Ramos, Matthieu Jalibert and Antoine Dupont weaving their magic, France’s opponents can be forgiven for being just as spellbound as spectators.
