A member of the French team has tested positive and the squad is isolation.

Even before this it had the hint of a non vintage year.

Ironically, it's Galthie. The test appears inconclusive and so another is being done. All players tested -ve but, of course, are now all in isolation.

We'll take a 28-0 win.

I speak in jest, I hope everyone is fine and this 6 nations continues to live up to a great couple of weekends.

I hope England's bubble has been very strictly adhered to between matches, given what I've heard about children testing positive. Poor things.

Looking serious
From another place!
This contamination is likely to become something big.

Galthie, Servat and member of the staff are positive. A number of players had small viral loads meaning they have been contaminated but the virus hasn't developed enough to trigger the tests.

They now know the origin of this contamination. Galthie brought in the Sevens players to take part in training with the XV squad. We now know that at least 6 of these players are positive and France Sevens just pulled out of the Madrid tournament.

This is a total mess. This also means France did not respect the "closed bubble" concept... and France may have contaminated Ireland for good measures...

Who has respected the "closed bubble concept"? Several players trained with Scotland then played for their clubs before turning out v England

Who the F... wrote that ?

So far after the 3rd test, none of the EDF players have been tested positive On the radio they said that it might be the 7 players who contaminated Galthié.

No further positive test in 15 squad (I believe they are tested every 2 days) however the 7 squad is forfeit for a 7's tournament in Spain.

The French management showing it's ineptitude (Serge Simon) they have Marcoussis to isolate easily but no we go in alpes maritimes (Currently the worse affected covid area in France).

And then Screw up the bubble by bringing the 7's squad into the fold...

Dupont Positive More than half the squad test left (11 in the clear)

6 Nations title in serious trouble

Looks Like the Covid Manager (Serge Simon) did a great job.

You have to question French management, what the hell are they doing , player welfare is more important than ever, I cannot see the match being played another time so if Scotland beat them, them due to disruption the RRFU are utter arseholes.

He was Covid manager . :mad:

FFR is Managed by cunts and a crook. So not much sympathy from me (just pissed off) PS surprised the French Sport minister has not even piped up.

No way this game would be going ahead in the Prem with so many positive cases in the squad. Will be interesting to see whether they call it here.

Yep, which seems prudent. I just can't see it going ahead as it seems such a widespread outbreak. Must be similar to what happened to Fiji in the autumn.
