The Dragons back-rower was the highest-profile omission as Wayne Pivac named his 35-man squad this week.
Head coach Pivac has told the British & Irish Lions to improve his all-round game to claim a place for the Six Nations.
Dragons forward coach Mefin Davies says Dragons feel Moriarty’s “hurt” and backed him to prove a point in Sunday’s derby against Ospreys.
