Warriors must be aware of the second half Dragons

Glasgow Warriors will need to be on their guard when they come out for the second half at Rodney Parade on Saturday afternoon.

Dragons RFC have scored eight of their 29 BKT URC tries this season in the 10 minutes after the interval, with only Edinburgh having notched up as many during that period.

As for the visitors, they will arrive in Newport in buoyant mood on the back of an eight-match unbeaten run in all competitions.

They are a hard team to contain in open play, having beaten more defenders (225) than any other side in the league, with their Argentine Test wing Sebastien Cancelliere leading the way on that front, having eluded no fewer that 28 would-be tacklers.

Fellow backs Kyle Steyn and Huw Jones were firmly in on the act during the thrilling victory over the DHL Stormers in Round 12, beating nine and eight defenders respectively, while scrum-half George Horne (136) and back row Sione Vailanu (92) have made the most metres from ‘pick-and-gos’ in the competition.
