Christophe was injured in November. He is one of our best wings. We want to win the Six Nations because it's a true competition and we want to field the best players available.

The team had a very good second half against the Italians, and we want to continue to forge ahead to beat the English.

We are of course sorry for Thomas because he made a great comeback in November but he pulled a thigh muscle on Saturday in the Heineken Cup match against Biarritz. We talked to him this morning and he told us he should be fit again in two weeks.

Olivier was not catastrophic against the English but he was responsible for three of the penalties the referee awarded against us. When he gets too wound up it's a bad time so it's time for a look at the (others).

Florian badly bruised his left knee in a French championship match with his Toulouse club on Saturday. He had a scan today and doctors decided that he should be exempted from training until Wednesday. We'll see then if he has recovered.

The case of Martin is less serious. He has a fever, but he is under treatment and was feeling better today and we hope he will resume training tomorrow.
