Wales coach says all players fit to face Fiji

Wales coach Warren Gatland says all his players are fit for selection to face Fiji Water Flying Fijians in their World Cup opener in Bordeaux on Monday.

Gatland will name his side on Saturday in Bordeaux, a day after the squad travel there from their Versailles base.

Gatland says the last couple of weeks they have had a few niggles and had 8 or 10 players not taking a full part in training and there is nothing serious, but just a few bumps.

He says they have been preparing well for Fiji in the last couple of weeks.

The coach says they have had some good clarity in the last few days about what they want to achieve and get out of it.

He says the boys look sharp, which is pleasing and he thinks they are a good place.

Gatland says the boys are happy and there is a great environment in the group, with boys getting on with each other.

Fiji play Wales at 7am next Monday in their first RWC game.

The RWC kicks off this Saturday with hosts France taking on the All Blacks at 7.15 am in Paris.
