• He has ‘no idea where the away box is’ at Principality Stadium
Warren Gatland will go to where he has never been before at the Principality Stadium on Saturday and he is not sure how to get there. The man who has been Wales’s head coach for the last 12 years until three weeks ago will have to locate the management box for the away side as he says farewell to the Cardiff faithful in a Barbarians’ jacket and tie.
“I have no idea where the away box is,” Gatland said after announcing the invitation club’s side for the uncapped match against a Wales team that is being coached by his successor, Wayne Pivac, for the first time and includes 16 players who were involved in the World Cup campaign in Japan. “Someone will have to show me so that I do not get lost.”
