Wales forwards coach Robin McBryde has signed a new contract with the WRU, extending his tenure to the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

Head coach Warren Gatland is already contracted until the 2015 tournament, while coaching staff Rob Howley, Shaun Edwards and Neil Jenkins have all agreed long-term contracts in light of Wales's performance in the World Cup in New Zealand last year.

"I'm pleased to say we've successfully concluded discussions with Robin and he will now remain with us at least until after the 2015 Rugby World Cup," said WRU chief executive Roger Lewis.

"I was determined to deliver the coaching team Warren Gatland wants and Robin is part of that first-choice group.

"We now have complete stability in the senior squad coaching team and so there is real and meaningful continuity ahead."

Wales face the Barbarians at the Millennium Stadium in June before heading to Australia for a three-Test tour.
