Thomas blow for France
INJURY UPDATE: Racing 92 wing Teddy Thomas will miss France's opening two matches of the Six Nations - against Italy and Ireland - because of a leg injury, AFP reported.
Thomas, who has 28 caps for France, is expected to be sidelined for three weeks with adductor muscle problems.
The 28-year-old will not feature in the home game against Italy on February 6 and the following match against Ireland on February 13 in Stade de France.
Thomas last played for France in the tour of Australia in July, but is expected to be fit ahead of the game against Scotland on February 26 in Murrayfield.
