There was something mentioned yesterday before the Scotland game that the LNR had agreed a deal with FFR to limit the number of games played by each squad member to a maximum of 3 in this Autumn's series - is this correct and, if so, who does it rule out of their remaining games?

Dupont, among others, was mentioned as having played all 3 games so far.

Only a few of the starting Selected have 1 game left

Romain Ntamack, Baptiste Serin et Teddy Thomas.

All the others are back at their clubs.

It's another brilliant move by Laporte. He tried to strongharm the Clubs and got buttfucked.

PS a few of the 31 selected are staying on because they have not been on teamsheet for the games.

Here's the squad for the Italy match, completely changed from the last game, but with such stegnth in depth I doubt theyll even notice the difference

Thanks Both, there's going to be a good test of the squad's strength in depth then - still some quality in the squad for the Italy game.

Barraque. :lol:

Thought Atonio fell on his arse and broke it on Sunday?

Only good news in there is Macalou. A realistic possibility that Italy will win the game.

Let's be honest, no there isn't, no matter who the French put out

Relax. The Mockers' Gods don't really exist. If you're not up for a win this Saturday, when will you be?

Not trying to play the mockers, I think they're on the old bored anyway 😜

Just trying not to get my hopes up like I always do

A little kind on Jalibert but on the whole, a fair assessment and 6/10 as a team was where it was at.

If it’s an England France final (kinda looks that way) then I want to play a full strength side, not one hampered by availability.

Not bothered personally. To me it's no different to the usual AIs which are more about £ and experimentation than serious competition much of the time. Artificially manufacturing a league and final doesn't alter that.
