The draw is kind for Wales, who will lock horns with Australia, Fiji, Georgia and Portugal in the group stages when the Rugby World Cup gets underway this autumn. Heavyweights New Zealand, South Africa (holders), France (hosts) and Ireland (world top-ranked side) are each in the other half of a lopsided draw, meaning two of them cannot progress beyond the quarter-finals.
Can Wales take advantage by wowing the world? The Six Nations has been a steep learning curve for Gatland upon his return as Wales coach and he, as well as the pundits, have had plenty to say on what’s happened thus far.
But what do the most important people of the lot, the fans, make of everything? This is your chance to have your own say by taking part in our Wales Rugby fans survey, giving your views on the state of play with Gatland’s Wales and what’s in store in the coming months.
