WRU review reaches end game as Gatland and England central to seismic few days and Pivac hopes players can save him

The identity of the Wales head coach at the end of the coming week remains in the balance ahead of a seismic few days.

Wayne Pivac is hanging on by a thread as a Welsh Rugby Union review into a disastrous autumn campaign concludes early next week. The most likely outcome remains that Pivac will be dismissed, with the union hopeful of securing Warren Gatland as his successor on a short term deal until the end of next year's Rugby World Cup.

But events at Twickenham could have a huge bearing on the outcome as Eddie Jones' own tenure looks to be doomed amid an RFU review into his performance. Gatland is also one of the candidates English bosses are strongly considering amid reports of discussions taking place.
