Connacht win their lineout on the five metre line and maul the ball. Blade picks it up from the back of the maul and runs it over the line for another try to take the lead!
The ref takes it back to a penalty against Dragons and Carty clears it out for touch from the Dragons 22
Connacht pass it wide and give it to Healy who gains some good metres. The visitors now five metre out
Connacht win their lineout on the Dragons 22
Connacht win their scrum and Carty sends it through the air and Hewitt gathers it and is tackled out for touch
Dragons win their scrum but pass it forward and it's another scrum to Connacht this time, on their ten metre line
A kicking game ensues but the ball goes dead off of Carty and it's a scrum to the hosts just inside the Connacht ten metre line
Carty gets the second half underway before Rhodri Williams returns it
And that kick takes us to halftime. An extremely evenly matched first half with both teams getting two unconverted tries and a penalty each! The second half has it all to bring as Connacht will start it with fourteen men. Will Dragons take advantage? Or will Connacht manage to over power the increased numbers of the hosts?
HT: Dragons 13-13 Connacht Rugby
The visitors are awarded with a scrum inside the Dragons 22 and Carty opts for a kick to poles
