Stade Français have made a rash of changes for their Heineken Cup showdown with Ulster at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels tomorrow.
James Haskell, Geoffroy Messina, Ollie Phillips and Benjamin Kayser have all been dropped to the bench, while the cited pair Julien Dupuy and David Attoub have been left out of the squad altogether.
There is still a strong strain of quality running through the side with the pack loaded with international talent like Rodrigo Roncero, Sylvain Marconnet, Mauro Bergamasco, Pascal Pape and Juan Leguizamon.
STADE FRANCAIS (v Ulster): 15 Hugo Southwell, 14 Julien Arias, 13 Mathieu Bastareaud, 12 Guillaume Bousses, 11 Mark Gasnier, 10 Lionel Beauxis, 9 Noel Oelschig, 8 Juan Leguizamon, 7 Pierre Rabadan, 6 Mauro Bergamasco, 5 Pascal Pape, 4 Tom Palmer, 3 Sylvain Marconnet, 2 Dimitri Szarzewski, 1 Rodrigo Roncero.
