Defeat to Wales in Edinburgh may be a blow that Townsend can’t recover from
Gregor Townsend faces a pivotal match in Scotland's Six Nations clash against Wales, with his future as head coach potentially on the line. A defeat could significantly impact Townsend's tenure, as Scotland aims to avoid a repeat of historical underperformance in high-pressure situations, including past World Cup disappointments. The team boasts a strong backline but has faced criticism for their forward strength. Townsend's contract runs until 2026, but speculation surrounds his long-term future, making this match one of the most crucial of his career. A loss could jeopardize his position, while a win would provide a much-needed boost to Scotland's campaign.
