French coach Jean-Claude Skrela has resisted the temptation to make wholesale changes for Saturday's Five Nations Championship clash against Scotland in Paris.
Despite successive championship defeats against Wales and then England, the French selectors bring in just three players following their 21-10 defeat at Twickenham.
The back division remains intact, but up front Toulouse prop Christian Califano is recalled, while there are also chances for Paulock, Thierry Cleda and Toulouse flanker Christian Labit.
The experienced Califano takes over from Stade Francais youngster Sylvain Marconnet, who drops down to replacements' bench, while Cleda replaces the injured Fabien Pelous and Labit ousts Christophe Juillet.
Hooker Raphael Ibanez stays as captain despite mounting pressure following a hugely disappointing Five Nations campaign as France look to deny a resurgent Scottish side victory at Stade de France.
If Scotland lose in Paris then England will be crowned Five Nations champions 24 hours before tackling Wales at Wembley, when the Grand Slam and Triple Crown is within the grasp of Lawrence Dallaglio's team.
