[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 564451, member: 48703"] Why should the Dragons with just 2 players in the Wales squad get the same funding as the Scarlets or the Ospreys who have far more? Also unlike Ireland, Wales are losing a considerable amount of players outside of the country and no longer acquiring notable overseas talents (see the fact that the Ospreys have replaced Fotuali'i with ***o Tebaldi next season). There is not enough Welsh talent to sustain four regions being competitive, the best bet would be to sacrifice the Dragons as a development region and boost the other regions with extra funding. Next season the Welsh regions are going to be a joke in Europe and I doubt any of them will finish any higher than third in their Heineken Cup pool. [/QUOTE]
