Fast return
Where and when Dan Mcfarland will lead Ulster back into Pro14 action
WALES will play their rescheduled Guinness Six Nations game against Scotland at Parc y Scarlets in Llanelli on October 31.
The venue will also stage Wales’ Autumn Nations Cup appointment with Georgia three weeks later, the Welsh Rugby Union announced.
But the destination for Wales’ “home” Nations Cup clash against England in November has still to be decided.
The WRU said it “still has options in place” to play England on November 28 and a December 5 Nations Cup play-off Test in London “in order to maximise potential revenue.”
Possible venues are thought to include the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium.
No games this year can be played at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff as it is in use as a hospital because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Meanwhile, Rob Howley will begin rebuilding his coaching career with Canada after being appointed senior assistant to Canucks boss Kingsley Jones.
The three-year deal that encompasses the 2023 World Cup will also see Howley work as a consultant for the Toronto Arrows for the 2021 Major League Rugby season.
It is the former British and Irish Lions scrum-half ’s first post since serving an 18-month ban - with nine months suspended - for betting on rugby matches.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be joining Rugby Canada and begin working alongside Kingsley Jones and the other Canadian coaches,” Howley said.
“I’m excited to get to work and help prepare Canada for World Cup qualification.”
