The 2019 Rugby World Cup is almost upon us, with the tournament opener between hosts Japan and minnows Russia in Tokyo now just two days away.
Wales' preparations for the tournament appeared to be rocked on Tuesday when assistant head coach Rob Howley was sent home over a potential breach of betting regulations.
Warren Gatland addressed the news at a press conference this morning, revealing Wales' shock at the situation and stating that Howley - who has been part of his coaching team since 2008 - was "devastated" by the allegations.
Meanwhile, England have held their final training session in Miyazaki and now head to Sapporo, where they open their Pool C campaign against Tonga on Sunday.
