Gatland gives Welsh players ‘rocket’ ahead of Fiji battle

Wales boss Warren Gatland has revealed that he gave his players a verbal rocket yesterday and a clear warning about their places in the team.

Wales return to Rugby World Cup action against Fiji tomorrow, just five days after the emotional high of beating host nation England at Twickenham.

With such a short turnaround, Gatland knows the mental approach and attitude must be spot-on if Wales are to remain unbeaten in Pool A and stay on a clear quarter-final course.
