          Two staff members of the French rugby team have tested positive, and one of them is head coach Fabien Galthié!

          The players have so far all tested negative, but will again be tested on Wednesday and Friday (local time).

                        @nepia Yeah, I was wondering about that, too. He's still 4 of the 5 years to go on his residency. He'll be 29 when he becomes eligible for Japan.

                          Had high hopes for him as a player when he was in the U21s!

                                @stargazer Considering France almost managed to beat Eng late last year with 14 or 15 of their starting 15 not available due to French Club Rugby, I still think they’ll beat Sco

                                          Eddie has announced his team to play Wales with no real surprises on the starting XV. Staying with Billy V, Jamie George and Daly at Full Back. It's good to show loyalty to your senior team members but surely there comes a time to question that a bit more strongly.

                                          A 6/2 bench (unsurprisingly) but with a relative unknown as the second back row replacement.

                                          England: Daly; Watson, Slade, Farrell, May; Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Itoje, Hill, Wilson, Curry, B Vunipola.

                                          Replacements: Cowan-Dickie, Genge, Stuart, Ewels, Martin, Earl, Robson, Malins.

                                          I confess to being a little underwhelmed.
