Do you laugh at it from a business point of view, Alex? Because it is just spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, isn't it?
7:49
It is, and at the moment...
7:52
It is being mirrored by the current valuations in some of these clubs.
7:56
And, you know, we've had discussions, especially sort of Rob and myself, as to are we getting to a stage where the valuation of these clubs is getting to the top? As in, if you look at the current stakeholders, I would often say who have you next got to sell to? Because at the moment, the valuations aren't really based on a traditional model, i.e.

Just explain to us who Y11 are and where do they sit in the context of this?
15:15
Well, I think ultimately it's what you have mentioned already.
15:20
They are an investment vehicle based out in Singapore that, as they actually say on their website, they're looking for opportunities to invest in sports clubs that have got a strong heritage but are currently underperforming.
15:37
And it is something that we are seeing across different sports across the globe and in particular in rugby.
15:45
It's something that's happened in England and it's now happening in Wales.
15:49
And I think when we spoke earlier, one of the challenges you have is that the current model is broken in that these regions and clubs are loss making.
16:00
And you don't have many potential owners to pick from.
19:35
Alex, that the model in Wales can sustain four teams?
