Franc winger Teddy Thomas trains
Paris - Arab Today

Hat-trick hero Teddy Thomas retained his place in an unchanged France team named by coach Philippe Saint-Andre on Thursday for Saturday's one-off Test match against Australia.
South African-born full-back Scott Spedding, who also made an impressive debut in last Saturday's 40-15 victory over Fiji in Marseille, also keeps his place.
The only change ahead of the Wallabies match at the Stade de France in Paris is among the possible replacements.
Saint-Andre has named 12 possible replacements, from which only eight will make it onto Saturday's match sheet.
Another South African-born player, scrum-half Rory Kockott, keeps his place among those as flanker Yannick Nyanga was added to the original 11-man list from before the Fiji match.
Lock Sebastien Vahaamahina, centre Maxime Mermoz and wing/full-back Maxime Medard come back into contention.
Thomas made a stunning debut at the Stade Velodrome, becoming only the second Frenchman to score a hat-trick of tries on his first appearance for Les Bleus, matching the 1987 feat of Rodolphe Modin, who scored three of 13 tries against minnows Zimbabwe at the World Cup.
Spedding set up two of Thomas's tries and gave a positive performance despite a poor start in which he lost possession on his first two carries.
Lock Pascal Pape and centre Wesley Fofana scored the other tries against Fiji.
Saint-Andre has kept faith in half-back pairing Sebastien Tillous-Borde and Camille Lopez, who impressed against the Pacific Islanders, meaning Castres pair Kockott and Remi Tales are almost certain to be on the bench again.
Team (15-1):
Scott Spedding; Yoann Huget, Alexandre Dumoulin, Wesley Fofana, Teddy Thomas; Camille Lopez, Sebastien Tillous-Borde; Damien Chouly, Bernard LeRoux, Thierry Dusautoir (capt); Yoann Maestri, Pascal Papé; Nicolas Mas, Guilhem Guirado, Alexandre Ménini
Replacements from: Benjamin Kayser, Uini Atonio, Xavier Chiocci, Alexandre Flanquart, Sebastien Vahaaamahina, Yannick Nyanga, Charles Ollivon, Rory Kockott, Remi Tales, Mathieu Bastareaud, Maxime Mermoz, Maxime Medard
