Professional career
Melvyn Jaminet was called by Fabien Galthié to the French national team for the first time in June 2021, for the Australia summer tour.[2]
On 8 July 2024, Jaminet was suspended by the French Rugby Federation due to a racist post being discovered on his social media.[3] Both the French Rugby Federation and Jaminet's club, Toulon, condemned his remarks, leading to his subsequent apology. An internal investigation was launched to shine a light on these comments.[4]
