:00:24. > :00:29.All four regions were on the road this weekend with mixed results.
:00:29. > :00:43.This was the case of the good. The bad. And the ugly. We catch up with
:00:43. > :00:51.the latest Welsh expats to cross the Channel. It's awesome. I am out of
:00:51. > :00:58.my comfort zone. Rick O'Shea visits the invincible.
:00:58. > :01:06.Hello, good evening and welcome to Click. -- Scrum V. There is plenty
:01:06. > :01:07.to talk about as always there to build started the action and the
:01:07. > :01:19.Ospreys trip to the west of Ireland. Justin Tipuric made his first start
:01:19. > :01:23.for the Ospreys since the Lions tour. It was one of four changes by
:01:23. > :01:29.Steve Tandy following their win over Edinburgh. Connacht had only won
:01:29. > :01:39.twice that they beat the Ospreys in Galway last season.
:01:40. > :01:48.An optically challenged pass and Dan Biggar has put the Ospreys in the
:01:48. > :01:57.league. You will not get a simpler one done that. Ian Evans. That is
:01:57. > :02:08.not a outside break by the Lions lock. Good friends football. Dan
:02:08. > :02:16.Biggar picking it up and wrapping it around with Justin Tipuric. This is
:02:16. > :02:27.Richard Fussell. Ospreys with the second. Great steadies grandbaby
:02:27. > :02:36.Ospreys. A lovely delayed pass. A quick ball going left. This is Eli
:02:36. > :02:49.Walker squeezing in. Let's have a look at what the referee says. Yes,
:02:49. > :03:03.it is OK. He gets another. Connacht are still not out of this. Dan
:03:03. > :03:19.Parks. Connacht have scored their first try. The handoff as well. It
:03:20. > :03:30.is all the way. That is the bonus point for the Ospreys. Dan Parks
:03:30. > :03:37.getting his backs moving. The quick ball would be handy here. Just
:03:37. > :03:41.about. He gets the second half -- trifle Connacht. -- second trifle
:03:41. > :04:04.Connacht. It is is easy as that. This is Dan
:04:05. > :04:09.Biggar for 1000 points in the league. That is a great cake and the
:04:09. > :04:26.young man becomes the first Welshman to 1000. They are off and running.
:04:26. > :04:30.Good luck in stopping Alun Wyn Jones.
:04:30. > :04:42.The Ospreys are undefeated this season. Pretty much the perfect
:04:42. > :04:45.start for the Ospreys. Yes, a great fixture to get rid out of the way
:04:45. > :04:53.early on in the season. A great start. The era of the black because
:04:53. > :05:03.is over in the Ospreys but they have made good signings. Yes, we had Tito
:05:03. > :05:08.Tebaldi looks like great sign. He shows some of the qualities with the
:05:08. > :05:13.tries scored. Jeff Hasler will come on as well. It has been a problem
:05:13. > :05:19.area for the Ospreys in the 12 months after Shane Williams left. He
:05:19. > :05:25.is one that will be available for them week in week out. He has shown
:05:25. > :05:31.his worth. On Tito Tebaldi, it doesn't seem to be an emergency any
:05:31. > :05:38.more. Rhys Webb is coming back. It seems as if they have developed a
:05:38. > :05:44.bit of depth. They are in a pretty good position. Tito Tebaldi has been
:05:44. > :05:51.pretty impressive. What about Dan Biggar? He has passed a thousand
:05:51. > :05:59.points and only the second player to do that. He's in the box seat after
:05:59. > :06:04.last season. He has a good platform in front of him. Richard Fussell is
:06:04. > :06:09.tipping in. He is hitting it off with Tito Tebaldi. They have learned
:06:09. > :06:14.from last year when they didn't have a great start. They have started
:06:14. > :07:04.well and they seem to be hitting It beats the tackle. Excellent work
:07:04. > :07:16.by the Blues centre. And a good quick ball. A lovely off-load.
:07:16. > :07:26.Matthew Rees. And he is handed down. A body check.
:07:26. > :07:58.that is a mere two weeks away. And added interests are. One chance and
:07:58. > :08:04.one try and it has gone to Sean Cronin. The Leinster forwards have
:08:04. > :08:12.another go at it. Qian Healy makes it available to Dominic Ryan. He
:08:12. > :08:24.can't make it either. As the ball rakes loose, Josh on DVD put it out
:08:24. > :08:38.of play. -- Josh Navidi puts it out of play. Here comes the drive by the
:08:38. > :08:47.Leinster eight. The referee goes straight underneath the posts, he
:08:47. > :09:01.has given away a penalty try. Well taken. Brian O'Driscoll did so well
:09:01. > :09:05.to re-adjust, incredible. Alex Cuthbert, what a try by Alex
:09:05. > :09:11.Cuthbert ex-mac what a fight back by the Blues. Is that it chance for the
:09:11. > :09:30.Blues that is a tough call. Surely, he can
:09:30. > :09:39.go to the TML for it. No, the referee makes the call himself. It
:09:39. > :09:47.is no lose try. Here comes the drive from the forwards. Sean Cronin. Good
:09:47. > :10:03.body position by Leinster. They have got the try. The forwards are
:10:03. > :10:19.keeping it tight. It is the outside half who gets the bonus point try
:10:19. > :10:21.for Leinster. Interception. Cory Allen gets a consolation score for
:10:21. > :10:28.the Cardiff Blues. Last week was a kick up the backside
:10:28. > :10:31.to be honest. We were there today, mentally.
:10:31. > :10:33.Last week was a kick up the backside to be honest. We were there There is
:10:33. > :10:38.some stuff we need to have a look at in attack and defence. In general if
:10:38. > :10:44.we keep improving at this rate is will be good for us. Jonathan Davies
:10:44. > :10:48.skippered the Scarlets for the first time this season as co-captain Rob
:10:48. > :10:54.McCusker celebrated his 100th appearance for the region. Former
:10:54. > :11:03.Scotland captain, Ross Ford, returns for the Edinburgh reference row.
:11:03. > :11:16.A rare visit by Edinburgh. Gilchrist, a poor pass. Did not go
:11:16. > :11:21.forward. Gilchrist mopped it up. It is the Scarlets who have given away
:11:21. > :11:28.the penalty. Leonid to put the home side into the league. Half an hour
:11:28. > :11:35.gone and first points on the board. Rhodri Williams getting it away.
:11:35. > :11:41.Phillips trying to twist and turn. Rhodri Williams to go blind side
:11:41. > :11:44.again. Beautiful pass outside the last defence. It is Nick Reynolds
:11:44. > :11:59.against the first try of the match. 36 minutes gone. Can Edinburgh clear
:11:59. > :12:08.this. Driving it on. Edinburgh needs somebody to take responsibility. He
:12:08. > :12:12.gets it as far as Rhys Priestland. Has Jordan Williams got any space?
:12:12. > :12:18.He is turning on the gas. Going for the corner. Brilliance by Jordan
:12:18. > :12:23.Williams, the sort of play that litter the end the 20 is. Edinburgh
:12:24. > :12:37.scrum under pressure again. Back following note. Liam Williams. Rhys
:12:37. > :12:46.Priestland tries the little peck. -- little kick. That should seal the
:12:46. > :12:54.win. We stuttered through a couple of
:12:54. > :12:58.performances but became a peer today with a game plan and it'll pretty
:12:58. > :13:03.effective. We didn't allow Edinburgh to get into the game either which
:13:03. > :13:07.was good and our defence was solid. Most importantly, we got the result
:13:07. > :13:14.we need to make sure that we don't sit back and accept that was the
:13:14. > :13:18.standard. We need to kick on. We've got Glasgow before we go to Europe.
:13:18. > :13:22.A huge game for us and the sort of game which we need to make sure we
:13:22. > :13:27.keep our feet on the ground. The Scarlets recovered swiftly from a
:13:27. > :13:36.defeat against the Dragons and Rob said Edinburgh and a very good side
:13:36. > :13:40.but you can sniff at an away win. The Scarlets haven't had a fantastic
:13:40. > :13:43.start to the season. They would have targeted that match. Edinburgh have
:13:43. > :13:49.been struggling in the last few years. Jordan Williams, we have
:13:49. > :13:55.spoken about him already. We saw what a talent he was in the junior
:13:55. > :14:02.world championships. He is a natural rugby player, he is quick, he could
:14:02. > :14:07.play at ten, at 15. He takes a pretty good pass there. It is just
:14:07. > :14:13.as footwork and his vision to beat people. Reminiscent of the man on my
:14:14. > :14:18.right hand side. He is exceptionally quick off the mark. We have seen
:14:18. > :14:22.Matthew Morgan and the quality he brings to the game. His running
:14:22. > :14:29.ability. Jordan Williams is in the same mould. We have two players who
:14:29. > :14:35.are still learning their trade who can be developed into fantastic
:14:35. > :14:39.assets. Playing in an empty stadium you have to motivate yourself to get
:14:39. > :14:43.there. I thought Rhys Priestland was man of the match. That party through
:14:43. > :14:50.for the first try was a beautiful pass. His kicking game looked good
:14:50. > :14:55.as well. A battle for the Wales number ten. Onto the Cardiff Blues.
:14:55. > :15:04.Last week you said they were a bit soft. There is never a soft rugby
:15:04. > :15:07.player but sometimes there is mental toughness. In games against zebra,
:15:07. > :15:21.eat you have to be mentally tough. They lost ball in contact, they had
:15:21. > :15:25.to turn over and handling errors. They knew they had to front up and
:15:25. > :15:29.Sam Warburton said they were mentally up for it this week so
:15:29. > :15:36.maybe not last week. Cardiff Blues are not good enough to win games 50%
:15:36. > :15:41.on form. So I was delighted they picked up their game. If they had
:15:41. > :15:47.played with the same intensity and aggression as against Leinster, they
:15:47. > :15:52.would not have won that game. It is about adapting and playing to the
:15:52. > :15:56.best of your ability every week. A couple of defensive mistakes,
:15:56. > :16:03.structurally stepping out of the line, jumping to quickly out of the
:16:03. > :16:07.line, if you -- a couple of referee decisions went against them, but
:16:07. > :16:12.Leinster were a much better side. They have to maintain in seven --
:16:12. > :16:17.intensity and toughness because they can beat almost anyone on their day.
:16:17. > :16:22.If they are not on form, they are not a good enough side. Going to
:16:22. > :16:28.Leinster, everybody thought, they would not win that. On the back of a
:16:28. > :16:35.word result against Connacht, going to Leinster, they would say, they
:16:35. > :16:40.still have good form -- a good result. They put themselves under
:16:40. > :16:44.pressure by a lack of complacency. Lean -- Blues seemed happier with
:16:44. > :16:50.that result. Leinster rarely lose their, their record is 80% since
:16:50. > :16:59.they moved there, and that site was packed with Lions. -- side. There 13
:16:59. > :17:03.international is and former pro-British Lions and they have not
:17:03. > :17:07.delivered their best. -- international players. They have a
:17:07. > :17:14.great number of young talented players, great experience, and it is
:17:14. > :17:18.one of the toughest places to go. Nobody expected the Blues to win but
:17:18. > :17:23.they performed better than they have done. There was controversy prior to
:17:23. > :17:31.the game when there were rumours Leigh Halfpenny was travelling to
:17:31. > :17:35.Toulon to inspect their facilities. No surprise one of the richest clubs
:17:35. > :17:41.in the world has been courting him but it is a worry of the player
:17:41. > :17:47.drain that is making no slowdown. We went up to -- we went to catch up
:17:47. > :17:50.with other players who have gone to France.
:17:50. > :17:57.Last time we caught up with Dan Lydiate, it was at his family farm
:17:57. > :18:01.here in mid Wales. Now he has set up in Paris. The contrast could not be
:18:01. > :18:07.greater for a man who has shunned the limelight, it is most tries we
:18:07. > :18:16.found him in a quiet suburb seven miles from the city -- it is.
:18:16. > :18:23.I am good! So this is the new home? Come in. A couple of home comforts,
:18:23. > :18:28.it is nice. We have been here a couple of months and we are settling
:18:28. > :18:33.in. Is there anything in Paris at you wish you could get? I have
:18:33. > :18:39.cottage cheese before bed and they do not do that. Can we wander down
:18:39. > :18:47.the High Street and check out the neighbourhood? We will have a
:18:47. > :18:51.browse. When we got back from Australia, it was packing everything
:18:51. > :18:57.up to move out here, a week 's holiday in Cyprus and as soon as I
:18:57. > :19:03.got back, two days and we flew over here and we were on packing and
:19:03. > :19:08.starting this adventure. -- on packing. I thought it would be
:19:08. > :19:13.cheap out here because there is a massive farming culture in France
:19:13. > :19:18.but everything is really expensive. There are nice bakers and they do
:19:18. > :19:31.nice suites. So maybe once a week, we will go mental. -- sweets. A
:19:31. > :19:36.cheat today, after a tough game. -- day. One of the nice things about
:19:36. > :19:39.the culture is that every morning, you go around shaking hands with the
:19:39. > :19:44.staff and players and you ask how they are, and I really like that.
:19:45. > :19:51.And some of the crowds, the away games I guess are intense. When we
:19:51. > :20:01.played into one, when you watch from the hotel to the ground, they
:20:01. > :20:08.surround you and start doing their chance. It is like an away game in
:20:09. > :20:17.Cardiff. -- two. That is what is good about -- about being out here.
:20:17. > :20:20.I try and stay out of the hustle and bustle of central Paris and I come
:20:20. > :20:25.to places like this where it is more tranquil and relaxed and I keep
:20:25. > :20:32.myself to myself and I just chill out. It is good and I am enjoying it
:20:32. > :20:37.over here. It is still quite new to me but so far, so good. A big
:20:37. > :20:42.political thing back home is the future of the Heineken Cup and
:20:42. > :20:46.players in different countries. Do you follow that all concentrate on
:20:47. > :20:51.what happens on the pitch? I like to keep my head down but talking about
:20:51. > :20:56.reasons about coming out, I wanted to play Heineken Cup rugby. No
:20:56. > :21:01.disrespect to the Dragons because they have been good to me, but we
:21:01. > :21:05.have not been playing Heineken Cup the and that is something I wanted
:21:05. > :21:09.to be a part of and hopefully a challenge for winning things at club
:21:09. > :21:15.level. That was another big opportunity to come out here. While
:21:15. > :21:18.his Lions team-mates had a break to recover after a last season -- after
:21:18. > :21:26.a tough season, he was back into action. The top 14 lasts longer and
:21:26. > :21:33.is said to be more physical. The French flair, that is tough. And
:21:33. > :21:38.there are other games with out and out forwards battling each other and
:21:38. > :21:45.their big monsters in this league. -- and their pick. A couple of South
:21:45. > :21:52.Sea Islanders. That code is blindside and open side, here is
:21:52. > :21:54.left and right. -- at home, it is. It takes getting used to and
:21:54. > :21:59.different running sites, so it mixes It takes getting used to and
:21:59. > :22:08.up trying to learn a new style of game. -- sides. Hopefully, it will
:22:08. > :22:13.develop me as a player. You available for Wales and the Six
:22:13. > :22:19.Nations in your contract? -- are you available. That is one of the main
:22:19. > :22:25.things I made sure of when signing. If I could not be released, I would
:22:25. > :22:29.not have come. I know you are watching the Dragons and Scarlets
:22:29. > :22:36.game, what do you make of the sudden rise of the Dragons? They are on
:22:36. > :22:41.fire! I was wearing my Dragons top and I was rooting for the boys, so I
:22:41. > :22:45.was chuffed. Leaving the suburbs, we headed for the suburbs where we
:22:45. > :23:03.heard Jamie Roberts had embraced his in a breezy. -- in Parisien. --
:23:03. > :23:09.inner. Jamie, we have, from Dan Lydiate to the centre of Paris, why
:23:09. > :23:13.here? I have come over on my own, he is settled with his wife and a lot
:23:13. > :23:18.of the boys are settled and want to live in the suburbs near training.
:23:18. > :23:22.But I have an apartment in the centre of Paris and it is awesome!
:23:22. > :23:30.You feel like you are part of the city. It is one of the main reasons
:23:30. > :23:35.for coming here. The top 14 is very impressive, it is an amazingly. The
:23:35. > :23:40.fact there is relegation and pressure to get in the top six. You
:23:40. > :23:45.play in the play-offs and there is great pressure week in and week out.
:23:45. > :23:48.Teams have to pick their best players and that is different to
:23:48. > :23:54.back home. Maybe a week before the Heineken Cup, clubs will rest their
:23:54. > :23:58.top players for the Heineken Cup, teams cannot afford to do that here.
:23:58. > :24:04.Janey injured his ankle three weeks ago but he is determined to defy
:24:04. > :24:10.medical opinion and get back sooner rather than later. -- Janey. They
:24:10. > :24:17.said it could be 12 weeks, so may target is seven weeks. I work hard
:24:17. > :24:21.in rehab, I am diligent and we have a fantastic medical team at Racing
:24:21. > :24:25.Metro. I would love to be back for the autumn internationals, fit for
:24:25. > :24:30.selection, we will see. As a qualified doctor, your opinion
:24:30. > :24:34.counts more than most! It does not, I do not have a clue, I have
:24:34. > :24:39.forgotten everything after my finals!
:24:39. > :24:44.I am glad I made the decision to come out here. It is completely
:24:44. > :24:50.different, like chalk and cheese to back home, a different way of life.
:24:50. > :24:52.I am out of my comfort zone and learning continually and meeting new
:24:52. > :24:57.people and that is what life is about.
:24:57. > :25:01.Both players enjoying themselves in Paris but the worry is that more
:25:01. > :25:05.will follow them and a lot of activity over the weekend. We talked
:25:05. > :25:10.about Leigh Halfpenny, the police said he was in breach of contract if
:25:10. > :25:17.he did visit Toulon and he needed written permission. Somewhat 's
:25:17. > :25:21.agent said they said he wanted to stay in Wales -- the agent of some
:25:21. > :25:27.Warburton. And there are a number of guys out of contract at Ospreys at
:25:27. > :25:32.the end of the season so we could be facing a situation where two thirds
:25:32. > :25:36.of the Welsh side are playing out of Wales, would that be disastrous? Not
:25:36. > :25:45.ideal, but the nature of the business and finances, that laws
:25:45. > :25:51.these guys away from Wales. -- lures. While we want the best
:25:51. > :25:56.players in Wales, we were talking about box office, we want a winning
:25:56. > :26:01.team. So if the funds can be spent better elsewhere in the team to
:26:01. > :26:05.build a better platform to make it a bit -- a better side, that would be
:26:05. > :26:11.more entertaining for the supporters. So better to spend the
:26:11. > :26:15.money on three other players that will be there every year? It is
:26:15. > :26:19.something the regions will consider, it has to be. We have mentioned
:26:19. > :26:27.recruitment and Leinster do it particularly well, we talked with
:26:27. > :26:30.the guys at the Ospreys. Guys will be available throughout the season.
:26:30. > :26:36.And you can get a couple of players for the cost of a Leigh Halfpenny.
:26:36. > :26:40.It is great if we can keep them but we do not have the finances and we
:26:40. > :26:45.have to be realistic. The most important thing is to understand
:26:45. > :26:49.where we are. These guys are still available for Wales and we still
:26:49. > :26:53.have these players to represent us at international rugby, so if we can
:26:53. > :26:57.develop young players and develop good players throughout the season,
:26:57. > :27:04.we could go down that road. I asked them both the same question, if you
:27:04. > :27:07.we could go down that road. I asked were forced to stay in Wales to play
:27:07. > :27:13.for Wales, would they have moved away? Both unequivocally said they
:27:13. > :27:18.would not. We have all moved away from Wales in the rugby sense. We
:27:18. > :27:25.did not want to move away. Once we had done it, it was maybe the best
:27:25. > :27:29.experience for us, but our hands were forced. It is the regions and
:27:29. > :27:32.the unions to do everything they can to keep these players in Wales. I
:27:32. > :27:36.agree if you off-load 300,000, you to keep these players in Wales. I
:27:37. > :27:42.have a couple of players more in a squad. But will the pro 12 be a
:27:42. > :27:48.feeder club for England and France? We do not want that, what about the
:27:48. > :27:53.youngsters coming through? They want players like these every week. It is
:27:54. > :27:57.up to the regions and the union is specially to try the core players,
:27:57. > :28:02.go to them and say, this is the package. If they cannot get near it,
:28:02. > :28:10.you can understand they will go to France. But it will be silly before
:28:10. > :28:14.the World Cup, it will stop our chances of winning. The Heineken Cup
:28:14. > :28:19.is up in the air, the regions do not know how much money they will get so
:28:19. > :28:24.it is difficult and I understand the concerns of the players, but it does
:28:24. > :28:30.come down to money. We have to say, if we can keep the core players in
:28:30. > :28:37.Wales, as nobody wants to keep -- wants to leave Wales. But again, it
:28:37. > :28:40.is down to finance. The Heineken Cup is a sticking point because players
:28:40. > :28:44.cannot commit to Wales if they think there will not be a Heineken Cup
:28:44. > :28:50.next season. Launch of what could be the last one Takes Place here in
:28:50. > :28:53.Cardiff. In a week, the Celtic unions have come up and do what the
:28:53. > :28:59.French union is dead and say they will not allow their clubs to take
:28:59. > :29:06.part in a competition that is not sanctioned, the English increasingly
:29:06. > :29:09.isolated? They are obviously in bed with the French clubs because they
:29:09. > :29:14.released statements at the same time to say what they are planning, so
:29:14. > :29:19.they are definitely working together and no doubt they have looked at the
:29:19. > :29:24.legal implications, they have not gone blindly into it so they have an
:29:24. > :29:27.idea of what they want to do. Ultimately, we will end up with a
:29:27. > :29:32.compromise and there will be a competition. It might not be exactly
:29:32. > :29:36.the same as what we see or what they are proposing. We could talk about
:29:36. > :29:40.that all night but we will hang around after the programme for 20
:29:40. > :29:44.minutes or so so if you have opinions on the future of the
:29:44. > :29:50.Heineken Cup or the player drain, contact us and we will discuss them.
:29:50. > :29:57.Ever wished there was more time for the Victor talking points? After
:29:57. > :30:04.every scrum five we will be discussing the stories from the
:30:04. > :30:11.weekend on extra time. Against the All Blacks, you have got to take the
:30:11. > :30:18.points. The programme will be on just after this show finishes. To
:30:18. > :30:20.me, it is Hugh Alito lack of effort. If you want to ask something then
:30:20. > :30:37.e-mail us. Back to the Pro12 and last night
:30:37. > :30:43.match between Munster and the Dragons.
:30:43. > :30:48.Former Italian fly half Kris Burton made his first start for the Dragons
:30:48. > :30:53.as they look to bring in a nine-year losing streak to Munster to an end.
:30:53. > :31:00.Paul O'Connell was that from injury for the Munster men. The Tigers were
:31:00. > :31:11.not want to concede now. -- the Dragons. The mistake in the Dragons
:31:11. > :31:18.rank in the line-out. The chance here for Munster. A couple of
:31:18. > :31:26.options here. The Dragons try line in the distance. Here is the angle
:31:26. > :31:38.and the try is awarded. It is James Cronin who ploughs over the try
:31:38. > :31:50.line. -- Sean Cronin. A slow ball. It is through the middle. This is
:31:50. > :32:00.what they are after, they are forcing teams to make mistakes. Kris
:32:00. > :32:05.Burton. The Italian fly half to bring the Dragons within four
:32:05. > :32:08.points. He struck it well. Is it on target? Yes, it is. A great kick by
:32:08. > :32:17.points. He struck it well. Is it on Kris Burton. Jonathan Evans is
:32:17. > :32:25.hollowed by two men in red. -- is collared. Niall Paterson has seen
:32:25. > :32:38.something here. Somebody was using the route. That is Andrew Coombs is
:32:38. > :32:46.floating at the back of that rack. -- ruck. I don't think you can argue
:32:46. > :32:58.with that whatsoever. Now comes the second release Surge. It is so
:32:58. > :33:06.difficult to control. In the end... Is there going to be another yellow
:33:06. > :33:14.card? There he is. That was almost impossible to stop as well. That was
:33:14. > :33:28.pulled down, cynical play according to the referee. They have so many
:33:28. > :33:44.men over, surely it is over for the Dragons? In the shadow of the
:33:44. > :33:50.posts. It was inevitable all. The 80 minutes and up. This will be the
:33:50. > :33:54.final act. Munster and trying to force a turnover. Paul O'Connell is
:33:55. > :34:03.in there. It has gone forward and that is that. Unfortunately for the
:34:03. > :34:05.Dragons, the final whistle goes and Munster have done enough to take it
:34:05. > :34:14.here at Musgrave Park. A bit of frustration crept in
:34:14. > :34:18.there. I felt Munster were killing a lot of ball and I didn't you with it
:34:18. > :34:22.in the right way. I look at that and make sure it does not happen again.
:34:22. > :34:28.I put the team under pressure so I am disappointed with myself. I make
:34:28. > :34:30.sure I will put it right next week. Let's round at the weekend's at the
:34:30. > :34:59.results. -- other results. The Dragons showed a fair bit of
:34:59. > :35:05.resilience, down to 13 men. But they were very much second best. Totally
:35:05. > :35:13.outplayed and I think Munster are finding their feet. They went back
:35:13. > :35:15.to basics two yellow cards were significant because they scored a
:35:15. > :35:19.lot of points and took the game away from them. Defence is a lot to play
:35:19. > :35:22.this year. You can see they are playing with that gets more
:35:22. > :35:27.confidence and they are more competitive. On the set piece, is
:35:27. > :35:34.that something that can be fixed in a space of a week? Sometimes it is
:35:34. > :35:37.fixed in a space of the season. It depends on your players and we know
:35:37. > :35:43.but the Dragons limitations are in terms of budget. It is lower than
:35:43. > :35:46.the rest of the Welsh regions and sometimes it is difficult for them
:35:46. > :35:53.to get the type of player they want. For scrummaging, it is certainly the
:35:53. > :35:57.play as opposed to the coaching. They have had a good start of this
:35:57. > :36:02.season but it will be limited expectation given the restrictions
:36:02. > :36:09.they have. Plenty of time left. We have had a tweet in by Alex
:36:09. > :36:19.Cuthbert. Just three bags of money. Maybe he can explain that. Let's
:36:19. > :36:23.move to the premiership now. Parc y Scarlets enjoyed a seesaw match in a
:36:23. > :36:35.feast of tries between Llanelli and Bridgend. Llanelli won their third
:36:35. > :36:43.game. The Blues and blacks had away in Aberavon. Cardiff winger proved
:36:43. > :36:50.the match winner. This was his first of an impressive hat-trick. Neath
:36:50. > :36:55.and Bedwas were looking for their work -- first win of the season. It
:36:55. > :37:05.was the visitors in black which proved better. He marked his Bedwas
:37:05. > :37:09.debut with a fine try. Cross Keys bounced back after last week 's
:37:09. > :37:12.defence against Llandovery. Their bonus point victory was sealed in
:37:12. > :37:21.the first 40 minutes with three tries including this one. Carmarthen
:37:21. > :37:27.Quins one and a percent winning record continues against Swansea.
:37:27. > :37:36.Dylan Morgan broke through to score under the posts. That his was a late
:37:37. > :37:42.try to secure their win. Sponsor plea's winning momentum continued as
:37:42. > :37:51.they played host to Newport today. -- Pontypridd's winning momentum.
:37:51. > :37:54.They secured a bonus point victory. That win takes Pontypridd back to
:37:54. > :38:02.top of the premiership with 18 point four is the Carmarthen Quins at one
:38:02. > :38:07.point below. Last week Rick O'Shea paid a visit to a team that had
:38:07. > :38:22.suffered a 181-0 hammering. This week he has gone to visit a team who
:38:22. > :38:29.have not lost for more than a year. Welcome to the home of a club with a
:38:29. > :38:35.great pedigree. You will see the captain of 1959, Malcolm Halfpenny,
:38:35. > :38:39.grandfather of Leigh Halfpenny who can't join us today. I am not saying
:38:39. > :38:44.he is in France, he is just not here. Easy in France? -- is key in
:38:44. > :38:58.France? What do Gowerton and the Arsenal
:38:58. > :39:07.winning team of 2002 and 2003 have in common? Gowerton went last season
:39:08. > :39:10.completely and defeated. They have won their first three games this
:39:10. > :39:13.season and today faces similarly then beaten team at the top of the
:39:13. > :39:33.table clash. We scored 1000 points last season.
:39:33. > :39:42.That puts you 25 matches unbeaten. Yes. How about the season before?
:39:42. > :39:51.Wearsiders scrape that one from our minds. That we are trying to
:39:51. > :39:56.scrape. What brings a lady out to watch Gowerton played? My father
:39:56. > :40:02.used to play for the team and myself and now plays Gowerton. Just always
:40:02. > :40:15.been a passionate supporter and I come down every week. We are having
:40:16. > :40:23.an absolute ball. What is the ambition of Gowerton? Where do you
:40:23. > :40:26.want to see them? We want to see them as high as possible.
:40:26. > :40:33.Sustainability is important. We have gone from having three teams, down
:40:33. > :40:39.to two. In the last few years we have had junior level and below. We
:40:39. > :40:46.are investing in youth and it is nice to see, the club looks very
:40:46. > :40:54.healthy for the future. Do you fancy getting involved? I know I will be
:40:54. > :40:59.involved in rugby. I have started my coaching badges. I am starting my
:40:59. > :41:06.level two, yesterday actually. I'm in the process of seeing where the
:41:06. > :41:08.pathway is going to go. I know I will stay in bed the in some
:41:08. > :41:37.capacity. -- were staying rugby. The winning rent goes on. That's one
:41:37. > :41:42.against your old side, Trimsaran. I look at the scores and everything. I
:41:42. > :41:47.followed their twitter feed. They have a few problems in the fence
:41:47. > :41:55.row. Any props out there, go down to Trimsaran. We have got a few minutes
:41:55. > :42:03.left. We look forward to the Friday night came, it is Ospreys against
:42:03. > :42:10.Ulster. Ulster were last year 's runner-up but not showing the form.
:42:10. > :42:14.Fans of the Ospreys? At home they have got a big advantage but I think
:42:14. > :42:20.now is the sort of time of year when all the lines up back -- all the
:42:20. > :42:24.Lions are back for the regions. We're getting into the teeth of the
:42:24. > :42:30.league. Two very good size in the league, fully loaded. I think it'll
:42:30. > :42:36.be a great match. Last season the Ospreys only scored two bonus
:42:36. > :42:46.points. It was criticism they have a lack of firepower. You mentioned
:42:46. > :42:52.earlier Jeff Hasler. Do you think they have addressed it? I think they
:42:52. > :42:55.have. They have tried a bit of everyone but they have got guys who
:42:55. > :43:01.know the position well. They have got a bit of talent in midfield, Dan
:43:01. > :43:06.Biggar is on fire. Tito Tebaldi has settled then. I think they have
:43:06. > :43:12.addressed it. They will be dominant upfront. They have got a pack of
:43:12. > :43:17.forwards who are better after the Lions experience. I think they will
:43:17. > :43:23.win and win comfortably put them in a great position ready for Heineken
:43:23. > :43:27.Cup. A prediction? The Ospreys have started well but Ulster will be a
:43:27. > :43:32.test for them. Ulster know they will have to play exceptionally well to
:43:32. > :43:38.get anything at the Liberty Stadium. The Ospreys are looking solid. The
:43:38. > :43:42.Ospreys have momentum on this site to make sure you tune in for that on
:43:42. > :43:58.Friday at 7pm live from the Liberty Stadium. We are going online to our
:43:58. > :44:00.extra time show on the BBC scrum five website. --
