Gatland urges chastened charges to show Irish courage for next battle

Warren Gatland has called on his Welsh players to show some Irish-style courage for the remainder of the RBS Six Nations Championship.

The Wales coach believes it is still possible to secure a third title in-a-row despite the shock of losing so heavily at the Aviva on Saturday.

“It’s not all lost, but of course this result won’t make it easy and we put our hands up because we were well beaten. But we’ve still a lot to play for; we lost to Ireland last year and won the title, so we’ve got to believe.”
