PARIS : France have made 13 changes to their side to take on Fiji in their penultimate World Cup warm-up test, giving a last opportunity to players on the fringe of selection before deciding their squad for the tournament.

The focus on the team for Saturday’s test in Nantes will be the flyhalf position after an injury to Romain Ntamack, who has been ruled out of the World Cup after a serious knee injury suffered last weekend. The substitutes include uncapped Thomas Laclayat, who has been added to the squad after the injury suffered by Demba Bamba last Saturday.
