Wales coach Warren Gatland has revealed there was a "significant split" within his squad ahead of their Six Nations clash with England which he believes "definitely had an impact" on their performance.
Welsh rugby's financial crisis led to threats of a strike before the players ultimately decided against taking strike action and the match went ahead as planned.
England won the match 20-10 as Wales slumped to a third consecutive Six Nations defeat, which has left them rock bottom with no points. Gatland's side have also been beaten by Ireland and Scotland so far in the tournament.
