WINCE OF WALES

Gatland's squad shames a proud rugby nation

- 

BARRY JOHN must be turning in his grave.

His beloved Wales have not won a game in the Six Nations since he sadly died.

And that was now more than 12 months ago.

In fact, Wales have not tasted victory in the competition for almost two years, since winning in Rome back in March 2023.

Which begs not one, but three questions.

How is Warren Gatland still head coach? Is there a more dysfunctional international sports team in the world than Wales? And how bad does it have to get for Wales to be chucked out of the Six Nations and replaced with a team more worthy of a place in it than them? Like Georgia, perhaps, who Wales have now fallen below in the world rankings following another Six Nations defeat, in Rome ironically.

Just last month English RFU chief executive Bill Sweeney vowed to fight on despite calls for his dismissal over a wages and bonuses scandal.
