The last rites, if it is the last rites they are, are going to drag on a while longer yet. On Wednesday, Warren Gatland reiterated that he would resign as head coach if it was "in the best interests of Welsh rugby", while also making it very clear that in his opinion it was not.

Gatland says he had the conversations with his family and his employers after Wales lost 52-20 to Australia on Sunday, their 11th straight defeat. Whatever was said, it has left him "focused solely on preparing the team for this week".
