TIGHT-HEAD prop Franck Tournaire banned for one game for stamping at Lansdowne Road, returns to the fray for France against England at Twickenham on Saturday.
The selectors have sprung a surprise in naming Olivier Magne in the back row. The 23-year-old Dax player, who won his first cap when he came on in the second half in the 27-22 win against Wales a fortnight ago, replaces Richard Castel. This is one of four changes, one positional.
Fit-again out-half Alain Penaud is restored to the side.
