Wales Coach Gatland Trusts Costelow to Bounce Back Against Ireland

Wales coach Warren Gatland has encouraged out-half Sam Costelow to seize the opportunity in the upcoming Guinness Six Nations clash with Ireland. Despite a poor performance in the previous game against Scotland, Gatland has chosen to start Costelow again emphasizing the player’s nerves before the Scotland match.

Gatland expressed confidence in the team’s development despite two consecutive losses and highlighted the decision to stick with young players aiming for future growth leading up to the 2027 World Cup. Gatland acknowledged the challenge Ireland poses but sees it as an exciting opportunity for his players.

Ireland’s settled and world class team presents a formidable test for Wales who approach the match with enthusiasm.
