Read our privacy policy Warren Gatland has sent a defiant message to Wales’ Six Nations rivals, warning them to write his side off at their peril. People are writing us off Warren Gatland Gatland, though, knows what it takes in the Six Nations, given that his first spell as Wales boss between 2008 and 2019 was sprinkled with title and Grand Slam successes. “For us, the challenge was that after the World Cup we lost 18 players and so much experience,” Gatland said, speaking at the Six Nations media launch in Rome. “When you look back and you have won a Six Nations or a Grand Slam, there will be a couple of decisions that have gone your way, the bounce of the ball or you’ve had some luck in the tournament.” After tackling France, Wales face Italy in Rome – the scene of their last Six Nations victory in March 2023 – then host Ireland and England either side of meeting Scotland at Murrayfield.
