BBC ScrumV BBC Sounds Worth it…..for £7.8million each?! All this surgery for a pittance? I don’t think Dave Reddin understands the fury that’s coming his way.

Spoke to the WRPA's CEO Gareth Lewis today. He says some players fear that the WRU have already made up their mind but adds players are prepared to trust the consultation process. GL: “The players' opinions carry weight and we expect the WRU to give them careful consideration."

Our official statement: elite rugby must stay in Newport Dragons RFC 🐉

Matthew Southcombe You need players… as many as possible… so the more teams the more players… why is that a hard calculation for WRU? We in Scotland don’t have the depth… 2 Pro sides is not enough in today’s game… look at the rankings and do the maths!

My background is sporting governance; I know a daft amount about it; I’m very experienced in it; I advise national governing bodies. I am one of the very few people based in the UK that the WRU should / could have spoken to about the proposed changes to the structure.

Man, I love answering leading questions that don't actually ask me about any of the topics they're supposed to.

🗣️ "We are committed to securing a positive future for Welsh rugby and to elite rugby continuing in Gwent, but there is no way we can agree to the proposals as they currently are...." Official club statement ▶️ shorturl.at/gTNYy #WeAreGwentRugby

I just want to say how proud I am of my club and the owners for their honesty and for providing clarity on our clubs position. I fully support this statement.

It strikes me that there are way more competent people who understand rugby involved with the Welsh regions than at the Welsh Rugby Union.

Part of the WRU's 90-page consultation claims that no top-level rugby nation has a lower ratio of players to professional clubs than Wales. If you go on registered players, rather than total, and include second-tier pro clubs in England and France, you've got a different picture

I said that I would do a thread on WRU governance etc, once I had had a better look at the documentation which has been circulating ... First things first - the overriding purpose of a sporting governing body is to protect and to promote that specific sport. Above all else.
