Dragons boss points to Irish set-up
Dragons chairman David Buttress says it needs to be accepted that each Welsh region has “a different purpose”, much like the situation in Ireland. He was speaking in the wake of all the speculation about the future of the pro teams in Wales, following a proposal that one of them should be axed.
Buttress is adamant all four regional sides need to be retained in order to provide an adequate player pool. He also dismisses the notion that one of them may become a development team, a role some have suggested might be handed to the Dragons.
