The Dragons have revealed how a last-minute offer saw them lose Wales and British & Irish Lions star Ross Moriarty to French club Brive.
Wales star Moriarty has left the region with immediate effect to help Brive in their bid to avoid relegation from the Top 14.
The Dragons had been extremely confident of retaining the 28-year-old after his move to Bayonne fell through, but in the end had to concede defeat when Brive came in with a big offer.
