The decision was made following advice from Public Health Wales and is fully supported by PRO14 Rugby.
Since the team are not currently training there is not enough “adequate” preparation time to ensure players can safely return to “full match intensity.”
All players and staff at Dragons who previously tested negative for coronavirus continue to do so.
Everyone at the region and PRO14 Rugby full expects Dragons to fulfil their R8 fixture with Benetton Rugby and their games with Connacht and Edinburgh will be rescheduled for early 2021.
