One win doesn't suddenly make Connacht contenders to qualify for Europe, they've beaten better teams than the Blues and still finished bottom, can't see it being any different for them this season, if the Dragons keep their form up though the battle for the Welsh European spots will certainly be very interesting.[/b]

An Tarbh, I know they need to produce big wins on more consistent basis but was just making the point as I was talking to a High up figure within Connacht Union who has informed me that the IRFU are promising alot of extra funding and an outside investor has promised a very handsome amount if in H'Cup.

We have even seen in previous seasons that their squad is expanding and as was before they not all sent from Munster and Leinster for experience like.
