I’m not concerned about my job security, says Dragons coach Bernard Jackman

By Adam Ellis
Dragons head coach Bernard Jackman has stood firm in saying he has no concerns over his position with the Welsh region.
The Dragons were on the receiving end of a 52-10 drubbing at the hands of Leinster last weekend to add to the opening day defeat against Benetton.
Aiming to get back on track against Zebre this coming Saturday, Jackman was asked whether the heavy loss at the RDS had sparks fears over his job.
“I'm not really concerned about my own future, to be honest. It's about doing the best job we can,” said the Irishman,” who did lead the side to a 27-22 win over the Southern Kings in the second game of the season.
“If you worry, it'll affect your decisions and my decisions have to be made with a clear head,” Jackman told BBC Sport.
Owned by the WRU, the Dragons appointed Jackman as successor to Kingsley Jones in June 2017. The former Grenoble coach has since recorded three wins in 24 PRO14 games and, despite the increase in resources that has seen Ross Moriarty and Rhodri Williams able to sign for the club, Jackman commented that the budget was still behind some PRO14 rivals.
“Everyone wants us to be better, but if you look at us resources-wise, we're still behind,” he said.
“But we like the group we have, we certainly feel this group has potential to get good results as quickly as possible.
“We have signed a couple of marquee signings, but our budget is £4.5m compared to £6m-plus everywhere else, so we've got to be realistic.
