Gatland exits Wales role during Six Nations after 14th straight loss
Warren Gatland

WARREN GATLAND has left his role as Wales head coach by mutual agreement following a record run of 14 successive Test match defeats.

The Welsh Rugby Union confirmed Gatland’s departure today, just 72 hours after Wales suffered a debilitating Six Nations loss to Italy in Rome.

Cardiff head coach Matt Sherratt will take charge on for Wales’s remaining three Six Nations games against title favourites Ireland, Scotland and England, the WRU said.
