Galthie wishes to expand squad for tour of Australia

France head coach Fabien Galthie has voiced a desire to take two squads with him for their tour of Australia.  

With 3 tests scheduled for 10 days, Galthie believes he will need the relevant man-power on hand. 

“With three tests to play in ten days, we must ensure that we have a sufficient number in these specific positions because if we have injuries, we will not be able to call on players who will be in France, given the health constraints,” he said. 

“We will need to have two full teams. One who plays the first test-match, another the second. A third which would be the first reinforced by those who will have a limited playing time during the second. "
