Two France Top 14 championship matches have been postponed after six players and a physiotherapist of the Castres club were diagnosed with H1NI flu.

Castres were scheduled to host Montauban on Saturday and travel to Albi on Wednesday.

"The board of the LNR decided during an emergency meeting to postpone the next two games in which the Castres Olympique club was due to take part," the League said in a statement on their website www.lnr.fr.

"Another case has also been diagnosed in the team (Bourgoin) who played against Castres last weekend," the league added."
