Wales scrummaging legend Adam Jones has been added to Warren Gatland's backroom team for the Six Nations. WalesOnline broke the news of Jones' imminent appointment on Monday, with the WRU now officially confirming it.

Wales head coach Warren Gatland has said he would welcome back Louis Rees-Zammit, but added he has had no contact with him and expects him to stay in the U.S.

Coach Warren Gatland is counting on some returning old heads to lead his young Wales squad in the Six Nations and create a siege mentality following a team record run of 12 defeats in a row that has plunged the country's rugby into crisis.

Warren Gatland's side suffered their first whitewash in 21 years at last year's tournament, as they failed to win a single game.
