Dupont back in France squad for November tests, Brennan gets first-call up

Joshua Brennan, son of Trevor has been included. 

France's Antoine Dupont warms up.

Antoine Dupont returned to the French squad for the first time since last year’s World Cup as 42 players were named by coach Fabien Galthie on Wednesday for the three November tests against Japan, New Zealand and Argentina.

Dupont, 27, has not played for the full team since the quarter-final loss to South Africa in Paris in October, though he has since gone on to win an Olympic gold medal with the French sevens rugby team.
