Former Wales coach Mike Ruddock says it would be a "big mistake" to cut one of Wales' four regions.
Earlier this week, suggestions from the Oakwell report, which recommended cutting the number of pro teams from four to three, surfaced ahead of the Professional Rugby Board's meeting next week. Those proposals could see either the Ospreys or Dragons cut, or the Scarlets-Ospreys merger - which failed in 2019 - revisited. You can read the details of the plan here.
The Welsh regions and WRU have since moved to reassure supporters they will secure the right future for the game in a joint statement. You can read that statement here.
