France head to Australia with new side

France are heading down under to take on Australia with a vastly unexperienced side, but have recalled fans favourite Sebastian Chabal to the squad.

France coach Marc Lievremont has called up a host of new players and as many as six are expected to make their debut against the Wallabies.

And Lievremont is fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead for his new look side. He commented, “Australia are certainly better than what we saw against Ireland. This Australian side has very big potential.”
