Welsh rugby boss Abi Tierney has admitted the governing body must accept "full responsibility" for the scale of Wales' decline.
The chief executive said blame for the 17-Test losing run lay firmly at the door of the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU).
Tierney was "devastated" by the record 68-14 defeat to England on Saturday and believes the players have been let down by those in charge of the game in Wales.
But she has vowed to fight on, despite revealing she has suffered personal abuse, doubled down on a commitment to four regions with a deal "imminent" and hopes to appoint a new director of rugby in the coming week before a new head coach.
