Perpignan centre damages his shoulder against Brive

France coach Marc Lievremont could be without Maxime Mermoz for the start of the RBS Six Nations after the centre through injury. Mermoz came off during Perpignan's 29-9 loss to Brive on Sunday after damaging his shoulder. Mermoz, who has won five caps, was sent to hospital for further tests - with the 23-year-old now a doubt for the Six Nations clash against Scotland on February 7.
