Editing Scarlets (section)

====2005–06 season====
The Scarlets again failed to qualify from their Heineken Cup group in 2005–06 and finished sixth in the Celtic League. They did, however, find more success in the newly restructured [[Anglo-Welsh Cup]]. After finishing at the top of their pool, they defeated [[Bath Rugby|Bath]] by one point in the semi-finals to reach the final against [[Wasps RFC|London Wasps]] at [[Twickenham Stadium|Twickenham]]; missing several international players, they lost 26–10. In the Heineken Cup, it was a similar story to the previous season, with the Scarlets winning two of their six fixtures to finish third in the pool again, behind Toulouse and Wasps. Despite finishing sixth in the Celtic League, the team qualified for the Heineken Cup for the 2006–07 season as the second-best-placed Welsh team in the league. They also re-signed Stephen Jones, and full-back Barry Davies extended his contract to stay with the Scarlets. The Scarlets' Director of Rugby, [[Gareth Jenkins]], had been appointed as Wales' national team coach, having been with the region since its inception. [[Phil Davies (rugby union)|Phil Davies]], then coach of [[Leeds Tykes]], replaced Jenkins at the Scarlets.<ref>{{cite news |title=Scarlets unveil Davies as coach |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/welsh/4790797.stm |website=BBC Sport |date=14 August 2006 |access-date=5 December 2006 }}</ref>
