Warren Gatland did not think rebuilding Wales during his second stint in charge would be so painful with the national side having lost 10 consecutive Test matches.
Following defeat by Fiji, Gatland is facing mounting pressure as he bids to avoid the worst run of defeats in Welsh rugby history with Australia visiting Cardiff on Sunday.
Speaking after naming his side to face the Wallabies, Gatland said he would return to New Zealand and “probably go back to the beach and have a glass of wine” should he not get the chance to turn around Wales’ fortunes.
