Ospreys and Wales legend Shane Williams feels a shock merger with Cardiff would have huge plusses for Welsh rugby.
Shane, one of the most famous players to pull on the black jersey, says the move makes sense once people take the emotion out of the argument - even though he doesn't like the idea of losing the Ospreys and professional rugby from Wales' second biggest city.
Feelings among fans have understandably been running high since the news broke on Friday night about powerbrokers from the two regions holding talks over the shock plan. The new team would play at Cardiff Arms Park.
