Lyon`s scrum-half, Baptiste Couilloud, has unfortunately sustained another injury, forcing him to miss the highly anticipated autumn international matches.
Couilloud injured his hamstring during the game against Pau and is now expected to be out of action for six to eight weeks. This unfortunate setback will prevent him from representing his national team in the upcoming tests. Additionally, the Fiji national team will face their own challenge, as centre Iosefo Masi has suffered a torn left hamstring and will require approximately two months for recovery, sidelining him for their international fixtures.
During the autumn international tests, the French national team is scheduled to play against formidable opponents: South Africa on November 8, Fiji on November 15, and Australia on November 22. The Fijian team, besides their match against France, also has away games planned against England on November 8 and Spain on November 22.
