France call up 15 extra players ahead of Bok Test

France have called up 15 extra players ahead of their Test against South Africa, including a replacement for injured lock Killian Geraci.

Geraci was a late withdrawal from France’s 30-29 win over Australia on Saturday and the French rugby federation on Monday confirmed his removal from the squad due to a knee injury.

Eight of the 15 new players called up to prepare for the match against the world champion Springboks have never played for France.

Toulouse lock Thibaud Flament linked up with Cameron Woki in the second row against Australia after Paul Willemse was also ruled out, because of a thigh injury.
