Jonathan Davies and Hadleigh Parkes, centres for European Rugby Challenge Cup side Scarlets, have given Wales a boost for their Rugby World Cup quarter-final against France on Sunday by being passed fit to play. Davies – who will win his 80th cap for Wales this weekend – has recovered from a knee injury picked up in the pool stages, while Parkes returns having suffered a shoulder injury in their victory over Uruguay. They are both expected to play major roles for Scarlets when they return to European action in the Challenge Cup, with the Welsh region making their pool-stage debut in the competition next month. They have been drawn in Pool 2 alongside Bayonne, three-time European Cup winners RC Toulon and London Irish, and their campaign gets under way against London Irish on November 16 at Parc y Scarlets. https://twitter.com/scarlets_rugby/status/1185108947868491778 Scarlets scrum-half Gareth Davies forms a half-back partnership with Dan Biggar, while the Welsh region also have prop Wyn Jones, hooker Ken Owens and lock Jake Ball in Wales’ pack. Two-time Challenge Cup winners Cardiff Blues, who return to the competition in Pool 5 next month, will be represented by No.8 Josh Navidi and wing Josh Adams, while Pool 1 team Dragons have flanker Aaron Wainwright in the Wales starting XV. Toulon flanker Charles Ollivon will line up in opposition to the Scarlets in the World Cup as well as the Challenge Cup, having been selected by France head coach Jacques Brunel for Sunday’s game. He is one of three Toulon players in the French matchday 23, with scrum-half Baptiste Serin and prop Emerick Setiano both expected to play some part off the replacements’ bench.
