Gatland wants Euro qualification to be tougher - WalesOnline
WARREN GATLAND has called for Heineken Cup qualification from the Magners League to be made tougher.
Wales’ Grand Slam coach has joined a growing body of opinion that the current qualification system for Europe should be ripped up.
The New Zealander, who has coached in Ireland and Wales, wants the top eight teams in the Celtic League to qualify for Europe, regardless of what nation they come from.
Under the current system, Wales are always guaranteed three qualification spots for the Heineken Cup, while the Irish have the same.
