Wales 'making statement' over availablity

Former Wales dual-code international Jonathan Davies and ex-Ospreys coach Sean Holley tell Scrum V that Wales have "taken a stand" after naming English-based players for the opening Test of their summer tour against South Africa.

Wales' Test on 2 June is outside the official World Rugby window and Bath lock Luke Charteris, Exeter prop Tomas Francis and Worcester wing Josh Adams are not eligible to play after being withdrawn on Premiership Rugby Limited's request.

The trio were subsequently dropped from the Wales squad, which includes two Tests in Argentina that are within the window, as head coach Warren Gatland has said he needs a full squad available for the whole tour.
