[QUOTE="Bluemoon, post: 561459, member: 38204"] [CODE][/CODE] I think (but again this is not official information, just what you pick up through hearsay at the club and the media), that the WRU would [U]part-fund[/U] the contract, leaving the region to pay a certain amount towards it. Perhaps the Scarlets cannot afford that amount/do not want that set up. Theres also the idea that the terms of that contract may may not be agreeable (i.e. the WRU caps the no. of games North plays for the region). I'm guessing the Blues move was a last resort in order to keep North in Wales, rather than a preferred move for everyone. Without having offcial information the whole situation is a mess and all this confusion will continue. [/QUOTE]
