Elwood refusing to get carried away

ERIC ELWOOD had every reason to be “chuffed” about his side’s unexpected demolition of the Dragons on opening day.

A four-try bonus-point win was more than Elwood might have expected in his first competitive game in charge of his home province when consigning the Dragons to their seventh straight defeat at the Galway Sportsground.

Although this was their biggest margin of victory over the Welsh outfit at home, the new boss is not getting “carried away”.
