WALES coach Warren Gatland will learn today whether his players are willing to line up against England on Saturday in the Six Nations.

The £10m match is in doubt with players threatening to strike in a dispute with Welsh rugby bosses over contracts.

Gatland hoped the matter would be resolved by yesterday but was instead forced to postpone his team announcement.

He then cancelled a key training session so players could continue negotiations with WRU blazers.

Gatland said: “There have probably been half a dozen meetings going on and there’s been uncertainty of what’s happening. Today was supposed to be a double session but we kept it to just this morning.”
