00:00Conor Roberts is named in the Wales squad, do you expect him to be available for Saturday?

00:04We'll be in and around it again, he trained today.

00:07So again we'll make probably a decision on Conor tomorrow leading into the game

00:13and then if he obviously doesn't make it we'll obviously work backwards from there regarding internationals.

00:19And Zayn as well, how's he getting on?

00:21Yeah really well, same as Conor.

00:23So came out today, he's been training.

00:26So again, both of them obviously being out for a little while now, we need to tread a little bit carefully.

00:31But I think tomorrow will be a bit more clearer for us in terms of where we position them at the weekend,

00:36whether they're available, whether we involve them or whether we don't really,

00:40don't want to risk too much certainly with what they've both had.

00:43So yeah, we'll make decisions tomorrow really on that.

00:46And with Joe, what's the extent of that one? Is that a bit longer than those two?

00:51Yeah, Joe's probably a little bit, hoping not too long.

00:55But at this present moment in time, we'll see exactly.

00:58Again, it's probably a bit more day-to-day with Joe, so we'll see where we are.
