Louis Rees-Zammit will switch back to wing for Wales in their Nations Championship opener against Fiji on July 4 at Cardiff City Stadium. Rees-Zammit, who played full-back in the previous Six Nations, is joined on the wing by Josh Adams. Wales head coach Steve Tandy has made six changes from the recent uncapped match against the Barbarians, where Wales secured a 33-31 victory. This match is being preceded by a disruption in preparations due to a dispute over match fees with the WRU, resolved shortly before kickoff.
