Wales assistant hails Ireland as the best side in the world

ROBIN McBRYDE believes that Wales will face “arguably the best side in world rugby” when they go for Six Nations title and Grand Slam glory on Saturday.

Ireland stand between Wales and them achieving a third Six Nations clean sweep of head coach Warren Gatland’s reign.

It is Gatland’s final Six Nations game before he steps down from his Wales post after the World Cup later this year.
