Wales coach Warren Gatland appealed for both patience and time for his young side to develop after they lost a 10th successive international, upset 24-19 by Fiji at the Principality Stadium on Sunday.

For context, his win percentage across the same number of games in his first spell in charge of Wales was 63.6 per cent, while Wayne Pivac - who coached Wales for three years between Gatland's two spells - won 45.5 per cent of his first 22 matches in charge.

Wales coach Warren Gatland has admitted the wrong replacement back was sent into the autumn test against Fiji in Cardiff.
