Bernard Laporte said : "it was disappointing not be able to play this fixture on Sunday. “Throughout this tournament, and the previous Autumn Nations Cup, we have worked hard to maintain strict COVID protocols which have enabled us to select our strongest possible teams for these important international fixtures,” Townsend said. “We will wait to see what options are available to play this match against France, but it remains our position that we want to have all our eligible players available to us for that fixture, so we can compete to the level we would have done this weekend”. Scotland has one win and one loss so far. France leads the Six Nations after away wins over Italy and Ireland. On Wednesday, French sports daily L'Equipe reported that Galthie breached protocol by going outside of the bubble before the Ireland game. Galthie has denied any wrongdoing. The newspaper also said some players went out to eat in Rome before the match against Italy the previous week.

Bernard Laporte said : "We will be working on the rescheduling of this fixture and will communicate the date in due course”. The game was given the go-ahead on Wednesday despite 10 France players -- including captain Charles Ollivon and star scrumhalf Antoine Dupont -- testing positive for COVID-19 in checks over the past week. Coach Fabien Galthie tested positive soon after the win against Ireland in Dublin on Feb. 14. An 11th player, as yet unnamed, then tested positive following another round of checks late Wednesday, prompting training to be suspended on Thursday and the French squad to go back into isolation. The decision to postpone the game now puts Scotland in a difficult position, especially if it is rearranged for next week. Scottish Rugby said this week that such a rearrangement could leave the team without 10 players because those based in England and France will be released back to their clubs for domestic duty under World Rugby’s player-release regulations. The rest week for the tournament lies outside of World Rugby’s designated international window. France leads the Six Nations after away wins over Italy and Ireland. Scotland has one win and one loss. Now France's momentum has been halted and fingers are being pointed.

Bernard Laporte said : "it was disappointing not be able to play this fixture on Sunday. “Throughout this tournament, and the previous Autumn Nations Cup, we have worked hard to maintain strict COVID protocols which have enabled us to select our strongest possible teams for these important international fixtures,” Townsend said. “We will wait to see what options are available to play this match against France, but it remains our position that we want to have all our eligible players available to us for that fixture, so we can compete to the level we would have done this weekend”. Scotland has one win and one loss so far. France leads the Six Nations after away wins over Italy and Ireland. On Wednesday, French sports daily L'Equipe reported that Galthie breached protocol by going outside of the bubble before the Ireland game. Galthie has denied any wrongdoing. The newspaper also said some players went out to eat in Rome before the match against Italy the previous week.

Bernard Laporte said : "We will be working on the rescheduling of this fixture and will communicate the date in due course”. The game was given the go-ahead on Wednesday despite 10 France players -- including captain Charles Ollivon and star scrumhalf Antoine Dupont -- testing positive for COVID-19 in checks over the past week. Coach Fabien Galthie tested positive soon after the win against Ireland in Dublin on Feb. 14. An 11th player, as yet unnamed, then tested positive following another round of checks late Wednesday, prompting training to be suspended on Thursday and the French squad to go back into isolation. The decision to postpone the game now puts Scotland in a difficult position, especially if it is rearranged for next week. Scottish Rugby said this week that such a rearrangement could leave the team without 10 players because those based in England and France will be released back to their clubs for domestic duty under World Rugby’s player-release regulations. The rest week for the tournament lies outside of World Rugby’s designated international window. France leads the Six Nations after away wins over Italy and Ireland. Scotland has one win and one loss. Now France's momentum has been halted and fingers are being pointed.
