Dragons burn limp Connacht

Connacht paid the price for a shocking first-half display as they were beaten 21-8 by the Dragons in Newport.

Bernard Jackman’s side made the most of their visitors’ poor start to the game, and the fact they didn’t score after the break failed to make any difference to the overall result.

All Connacht had to show for their efforts was a Quinn Roux try and a Jack Carty penalty, summing up a disappointing performance.
