Wales will fly to Kazakhstan next week, having done everything they believe they can do to prevent any nasty surprises.

Three matches into the Brian Barry-Murphy era at Cardiff City and the team remain unbeaten, much to the satisfaction of their new boss.

Unbeaten Newport County are back in action on Tuesday night when they host Championship side Millwall in the first round of the Carabao Cup.

First, the Ospreys paraded Swansea Council, now the Scarlets have trumpeted new investors from the USA as the Welsh regions scrap it out to prove how undroppable they are.

Wrexham could soon have Kieffer Moore up front alongside Nathan Broadhead, plus former England defender Conor Coady all in their starting line-up, plus a host of other new faces.

Swansea City are just days away from the start of their Championship campaign, but are yet to sign the new striker they have been searching for.

Owen Beck excelled last season in a loan move to Blackburn Rovers and now has the chance to make progress at Derby.

Wrexham have been busy - they have signed goalkeeper Danny Ward, forward Ryan Hardie, left-back Liberato Cacace, midfielder George Thomason, and now striker Josh Windass.

He may have delivered his customary consistency on tour, but Jac Morgan has so far been forced to watch the Test match impact of England’s Tom Curry.

Jac Morgan is likely to remain on the outside, looking in, for the British and Irish Lions after a ruthless display from Tom Curry in Brisbane.

First they came for Wrexham’s celebrity status, now Swansea City are after a slice of the global TV action, so get ready for the “Doggumentary.”

There are three days left of talking until the action starts in Australia, so well done to former Wallaby Chris Latham who has done his best to spice things up a little.
