June 12, 2002

Toulouse No.8 Christian Labit is set to collect his first cap since May 2000 against Argentina this Saturday.

Reports following the latest French training session in Argentina, suggest Labit, 31, will begin the Buenos Aires clash in place of Imanol Harinordoquy who has hurt a knee.

Scrumhalf Pierre Mignoni is set to replace Fabien Galthie, who is not touring because of a long-term ankle injury, and prop Jean-Baptiste Poux should also feature in the starting XV.

Toulouse wing Nicolas Jeanjean should also be preferred to David Bory, who has a muscular problem.

Coach Bernard Laoprte is set to announce his team on Wednesday.
