"FROM THE COACH"

"Welcome to the tonight's match against Pontypridd. It's certainly not perfect to have three games in eight days but I believe we have the personnel to take on the challenge."

"I was obviously disappointed not to win the game on Friday night. We're just not quite clicking at the moment. It's certainly not time to panic but it is time to start executing things properly."

"We aren't controlling the game as much as I would like and that's something we will have to look at for tonight's match. If anything, the players are almost working too hard and that's bringing about errors which we need to cut out. They were all disappointed with the result on Friday but this is when we need to pick ourselves up and take on the next challenge."

"Given the short turnaround, it's always going to be difficult to manage the players, but part of our remit is also to give the Dragons boys time and with our injury list that is certainly easy to do. It was good on Friday night to give Rhodri Gomer Davies pitch time on his recovery from injury and we have the depth in our squad to meet tonight's game head-on."

"Thanks for your support."
