Wales have been
given permission to bring a player not named in their 21-man
squad on Tuesday into the team to play Ireland at Perth
Rectangular Stadium on Sunday.
With halfbacks Matt Seamark
and Danny Ansell ruled out due to injury and illness, Wales
sought permission to play Josh Ralph in the role and the
change was approved by RLWC2017 tournament director Jeremy
Edwards.
Ralph has been included in the reduced 19-man
squad named 24 hours before kick-off and will wear jersey
No.23.
