Second half underway and Connacht are awarded an early penalty

Connacht beaten by the clock as we enter half time. Healey sends it to the crowd to call an end to a poor first half display from the home side who trail 8-3 at half time. Dragons with a single try through Fullback Dan Evans, 2 missed kicks and one successful kick for the Visitors while Connacht have just a single penalty to show for their efforts. Conditions making it difficult to get the wingers involved as mush as they'd like and a lot of play up the middle through forward runners. 40 more to come...

Dragons penalty for Connacht holding on. Now based in Connacht's 22, Connacht manage to turn it over and Parks puts boot to ball and kicks deep down field and it sneaks in to touch
