France’s rugby head coach, Fabian Galthie has named his side that will be out seeking to win the 2024 Guinness Six Nations competition slated to kick off later in February.

France will kick off their campaign for the Guinness Six Nations on February 24th against world number two and the six nations’ defending champions Ireland.

The team will be going into the competition without their young experienced Captain Antoine Dupont who was included in France’s squad for the 2024 Olympics after the completion of the 2023 Rugby World Cup.

France who had a fine run in the World Cup however lost to champions South Africa in the quarters. In his absence, backrower Gregory Aldritt is the one tasked with leading the team to winning the championship.
