Antoine Dupont at number 10, Fabien Galthié's surprise to face South Africa

Antoine Dupont will play as fly-half for France against South Africa due to injuries in the team. This decision, made by coach Fabien Galthié, comes as a bold move to face a strong opponent. Dupont, usually a scrum-half, will partner with Maxime Lucu, creating a new half-back pairing. Despite limited experience at fly-half, both players are recognized for their talent and ability to perform under pressure. The match is crucial for the Nations Championship, with France seeking to avenge their recent World Cup loss to the Springboks.
