    Dragons followed up their European Challenge Cup win against Lyon by dismantling Connacht for back-to-back successes for the first time since 2022.

    Two wins in six days have released some pressure on Tiatia and his coaching team after reaching December without victory in any competition in 2025.

    There has been a reaction to an embarrassing 41-17 defeat by Perpignan, who look doomed to relegation despite recording a first Top 14 win of the season against Clermont Auvergne at the weekend.

    Amid talk of what Dragons bring to the table in uncertain times for Welsh rugby, the squad have produced two timely victories.

    The thrashing of Connacht has lifted them above both Scarlets and Ospreys, prompting hopes of not only a fight to avoid being the URC’s bottom team with Zebre, but a scrap to lose the tag as Wales’ worst.

    Tiatia will not get carried away after one victory to end a 15-month, 23-game streak without league success.

    “We are trying to put wins together but also trying to build a game that the fans want to see,” said the former All Blacks forward.

    “We are building belief in what they are trying to achieve together, particularly when fatigue sets in.

    “There is also the mental side of the game, because we have a lot of young guys that don’t have those tools.”
