Wayne Pivac will not panic after Wales' defeat to Ireland
Wayne Pivac says there will be no panic as Wales look to regroup in this season's Guinness Six Nations Championship.
Wales will get their campaign back on track if they beat France at the Principality Stadium in 13 days' time.
But it will be a severe examination for Pivac's men as they aim to recover quickly from a 24-14 defeat against Ireland in Dublin.
Whether Pivac makes changes for the France clash remains to be seen, but 93 times-capped wing George North was among those who could make little impact on the contest.
North's frustrating afternoon was highlighted near the end when he knocked on inside his own 22, and Ireland subsequently took advantage of an attacking platform to score a bonus-point try.
Wales' defeat in Dublin was their first Six Nations loss since Ireland beat them two years ago, but Pivac knows that a lot can happen during the next three rounds of fixtures.
After hosting France, Wales meet England at Twickenham before ending the tournament at home to Scotland.
