Scarlets win derby clash as Jones hurt

WALES star Stephen Jones gave national coach Warren Gatland an injury worry just four weeks before they play England at Twickenham as the Scarlets claimed a vital Magners League win at Rodney Parade.

The Lions fly-half came off after 54 minutes in his side’s victory complaining of soreness on the AC joint of his right shoulder following a heavy tackle in the first-half.

Both regions were desperate to kick the losing habit, with the Dragons having suffered three-straight losses, while the Scarlets had not won since the LV=Cup triumph over Worcester on November 14.
