FITNESS BOOST FOR WALES AND TOSH

With so many key players absent at present, Wales had a timely boost ahead of their opening World Cup qualification game against Azerbaijan at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium tomorrow as Rob Earnshaw and Jason Koumas both declared themselves fit to play.
Earnie was expected to miss the game but has responded well to week-long treatment while JK's slight knock is not significant.
With poor weather and poor advance ticket sales, it promises to be an echoey afternoon in the stadium which is certain to have its roof closed. Only 8,000 tickets were sold at the start of the week and, at the very best, just 15,000 may show up tomorrow. However it's a vital game as Wales need a confidence boosting win ahead of next week's tough trip to Russia.
C'MON CYMRU!
