How on earth is Owen Lane not in the Wales squad? He's on fire

Odds stacked against Wales, but they'll need the physical presence of Ross Moriarty in Ireland-Shane Williams

Regions bounce back from disappointing Euro weekend with two outstanding wins tonight, Ospreys beating Edinburgh and Cardiff defeating Leinster. Could well give Wales a lift going into the Six Nations next week

Great try by Owen Lane for Cardiff, collecting Jarrod Evans pin-point kick, stuns Leinster

Dragons clearly lacking in confidence, short of penetration behind, continue to make the same mistakes and miss chances. Persevere and it'll come, just taking so much time!

At least it wasn't a defeat as Dragons end 7-match losing run with 13-13 draw against Benetton. Performance marred by red card for Elliot Dee in last seconds but try scorer Ross Moriarty should have booked place in Wales 23

Ross Moriarty doing what he does best, taking defenders on and battering his way to the line to give Dragons hope

Knock on and forward pass by the Dragons in the first 3 minutes, hope that's not a sign of things to come

It's been said before-many times-but tonight against Benetton at RP really is a must win game for the Dragons. Nine defeats in ten games this season is obviously a dismal record, and a victory is badly needed to boost confidence and give fans a lift too

Taulupe Faletau will return to training in the coming weeks, say Bath. 6N starts in 9 days, he has to resume training, build fitness up again after being out all season, then play a game or two. Logic suggests he'll play little part in 6N, sadly

Ross Moriarty straight back into the Dragons team for tomorrow's league game v Benetton at RP after recovering from shoulder op. Could yet make Wales' 6N team. Elliot Dee and Rhodri Williams on bench after injuries but no place for departing Jamie Roberts

Interesting-Wasps say they couldn't compete financially with the Scarlets who have signed impressive ex-All Black Vaea Fifita from them. Wasps, subject to the new £5m Premiership salary cap, basically had to let him go
