Wales will be hoping that they can build momentum at the 2023 Rugby World Cup and continue their strong record under Warren Gatland.<\/p>\n
The New Zealander returned for a second stint in charge after compatriot Wayne Pivac paid the price for a difficult November last year.<\/p>\n
While Gatland\u2019s side were short of where they needed to be during the Six Nations in the spring, a crop of talented youngsters and a few veteran heads could go well at the tournament.<\/p>\n
Australia, Fiji and Georgia are all likely to provide tough opposition in the pool stages but Wales may just fancy their chances of reaching a third semi-final in four tournaments if they can escape from their group. <\/p>\n
