Best of luck to the Dragons ahead of their season opener against Benetton this Saturday. There’s lots to look forward to for the region on and off the pitch this year.

I’d also like to wish all of our Newport East rugby clubs the very best for the new season – including Newport RFC who kick off their 2018/19 campaign away at Carmarthen Quins on Saturday.

It promises to be an exciting season for rugby in Gwent.
