Welsh Rugby Players Association says financial uncertainty is affecting players' lives. Cardiff, Dragons, Ospreys and Scarlets lost in South Africa this weekend. There is a financial impasse between the professional sides and the Welsh Rugby Union about their funding for the coming years. The association wants an agreement to be concluded imminently. Will Rowlands, a Dragons' player, has agreed to move to French club Racing 92. Wales have just three wins this season and coach Wayne Pivac's position is under threat.
