(Reuters) - Wales coach Wayne Pivac said he is still the right man to take the team forward after they crashed to a sixth straight defeat in a 32-9 loss to Ireland in the Autumn Nations Cup opener on Friday.

Pivac took over from Warren Gatland after last year's World Cup in Japan, where Wales were semi-finalists, and began the Six Nations with a 42-0 win over Italy on Feb. 1, only to then lose to Ireland, France and England.
