Door is open for players, insists Davies

CARETAKER coach Nigel Davies insists the door should not be closed on any player as Wales attempt to bounce back from their World Cup woes.

With Warren Gatland poised to take over the side next month, Davies says he has kept an “open mind” in selecting his squad for the forthcoming one-off Test with South Africa.

Davies yesterday named a 31-man preliminary party which will be reduced to 24 next week ahead of the Millennium Stadium clash on November 24.
