Former Wales coach Wayne Pivac believes the Scarlets and Ospreys should have merged when he was in charge of the west Wales region.
Pivac, who was axed as Wales coach at the end of last year, gave his views when appearing as a pundit on Viaplay's live coverage of the Scarlets v Edinburgh match on Saturday evening.
He questioned whether there is enough money in the Welsh game to properly finance four Welsh regions and urged bosses to sort out the ongoing mess as soon as possible.
