Former Wales defence guru Shaun Edwards has admitted he would love to coach Wales at some point in the future as he praised the reappointment of Warren Gatland - adding that the Welsh Rugby Union should never have got rid of him in the first place.
As head coach and defence coach respectively, Gatland and Edwards won a host of Grand Slam titles as well as delivering two World Cup semi-finals and a 14-match unbeaten run that took Wales to number one in the world rankings. The pair left their roles with Wales after the 2019 World Cup, with Gatland returning to New Zealand and Edwards taking on a role with France.
While Gatland has now returned to his old post following the departure of Wayne Pivac, Edwards has played a pivotal role in turning France into contenders at their own World Cup next year. Only a couple of weeks ago he signed a new deal that will keep him in the French coaching ticket until 2027.
