Josh MacLeod also crossed the line, contributing to a strong first half that saw the Scarlets lead 24-8 at halftime. In the second half, Ellis Mee extended the lead with a try shortly after the break. The Dragons managed to respond with a try from Taine Basham, but it was not enough to close the gap.
