Wales trained on Thursday as they get set for their Six Nations opener against France on Friday evening.

Les Bleus are overwhelming favourites to continue Wales' long Test match losing run that began against 2023 World Cup quarter-final opponents Argentina.

Wales head coach Gatland has accepted publicly that change is likely if signs of improvement are not shown during the Six Nations.

Welsh Rugby Union chief executive Abi Tierney said Gatland's position was "on the line" as a review into Wales' miserable Autumn Nations Series campaign commenced earlier this season.

He was given the green light to continue, with another detailed WRU assessment planned after Wales finish the tournament at home to England in mid-March.

Wales have won just six of 24 Tests since Gatland returned for a second stint in charge - his first spell delivered Six Nations titles, Grand Slams and two World Cup semi-final appearances - and the heat is on.
