Wales' Six Nations squad members are believed to have held a decisive final vote on whether to accept the revised proposals to break Welsh rugby’s deadlock and play the match against England.
Saturday’s Wales v England Six Nations game had been under threat with players weighing up whether to strike over contract issues, the 60-cap rule and their lack of a voice in decisions that affect them. Professional players from across Welsh rugby gathered at the Vale Resort on Wednesday for an update after a Professional Rugby Board meeting in Cardiff.
WalesOnline understands national squad players decided among themselves in a separate meeting whether or not to accept a fresh package of proposals that would include the 60-cap rule becoming the 25-cap rule and the players being granted an active presence at PRB board meetings.
