Departing centre argues coach’s exit ‘wouldn’t solve much’‘He knows how to get the best out of the boys. It just takes time’
George North has backed Warren Gatland to revive Wales’s fortunes and believes the current squad has a bright future despite a first winless Six Nations since 2003. North played his 121st and final match for Wales in the defeat against Italy on Saturday before joining the French side Provence next season.
Wales have lost seven consecutive Six Nations matches in Cardiff and won just one of their past 13 championship games. Another disjointed display against the fast-improving Azzurri confirmed the wooden spoon, prompting Gatland to hypothetically offer his resignation to the Welsh Rugby Union.
