Wales coach Warren Gatland says his side will not relent ahead of Fiji clash

Daily Mail  

Wales will go into the quarter-finals with a mental edge if they leave their pool unbeaten, according to Warren Gatland. Wales have only gone unbeaten once in a World Cup Pool stage - back in 1987 when they ended third, their best ever finish. Warren Gatland is hoping Wales can keep their momentum going ahead of the quarter-finals And Gatland - in his last World Cup - is set to pick the big-guns again against Fiji in order to keep momentum going. 'I think psychologically it's quite important for us to win this group, win the next two games, and then to start thinking about our quarter-final opponent.
