Steyn back to spoil France party
Yesterday at 01:39 AM
South African winger Kyle Steyn is one of four players called up by Scotland coach Gregor Townsend ahead of their final Six Nations match against France in Paris on Saturday.
The 31-year-old missed the start of the tournament due to a knee injury and will continue his recovery with the squad this week.
Steyn is joined by Glasgow Warriors teammates, flyhalf Adam Hastings, who returned from injury earlier this month, and No 8 Jack Mann, along with No 8 Alexander Masibaka, who plays for French Pro D2 club Soyaux Angoulême XV Charente.
Mann and Masibaka provide cover for Rory Darge, who is in doubt for Saturday’s match.
Scotland are looking to upset France, who moved to the top of the Six Nations log with a 42-27 win in Dublin last weekend. Les Bleus are one point ahead of England, who meet Wales in Cardiff on Saturday, and two ahead of Ireland, who face Italy in Rome.

The Scots are fourth on the log after a 35-29 victory against Wales at Murrayfield and need to beat France, and hope other results go their way, to finish higher.
