In the second half, the Warriors secured their bonus try. In the 53rd minute, a well-executed lineout for the home team set up Huw Jones, who broke through the defense to score between the posts, making it 28-3. Then, in the 62nd minute, Grant Stewart added another try for the Warriors from a maul, bringing the score to 33-3. At this point, Zebre were ruled out and nothing they did was working for them. In the 64th minute, George Horne seemed to score following an excellent pass from Rory Darge, but the TMO ruled it out for a previous forward pass.
