Wales delighted as Edwards pens new deal

The Western Mail's Simon Thomas reports on the Welsh Rugby Union's new deal with assistant coach Shaun Edwards.

"Lewis began initial talks with rugby league great Edwards over his future while Wales were out in New Zealand at the World Cup.

"Those discussions stepped up a gear on their return following the announcement that Edwards was parting company with Wasps.

"Lewis travelled north to Wigan to meet Edwards and his representatives a couple of weeks ago and, after holding talks with Gatland last week, he moved to seal the deal.

“It was more than apparent through the extraordinary coverage in the UK press that Shaun was in considerable demand from many quarters and there were many options open to him in this country and in Europe,” said Lewis."
