Not the strongest Scarlets backline, although pack is pretty much full strength. I think we may struggle but will hopefully be a good game.

"Leigh Halfpenny and Johnny McNicholl have both been ruled out of Scarlets' game v Bath after failing fitness tests. Rhys Patchell now at full-back, Asquith on wing, Hadleigh Parkes into centre."

Apparently both pulled up in the captain's run today!

Great first half by the Scarlets, some fantastic offloading, running it in from all over, great to watch

Banana should have gone for 10 with that deliberate knock on

I wrote Banahan and auto correct decided it should be Banana.........sometimes its just not worth the battle

The knock on that went towards his own line?

no, the one where he hung his arm out with deliberate intent to interfere with the passage of the ball if it were to be passed and disguised it as a wrap around tackle with no attempt to actually intercept the ball

Sensational performance. Lovely to watch.

Playing the Welsh way!

Wow, best Welsh away performance in Europe since.....

I can't remember, to be honest. Superb performance by the Scarlets.

Very impressive first half performance from the Scarlets, scoring two tries when down to 14 was superb, if they can just get past Toulon then by the time the next round of games is played the ground should be getting a bit harder and the weather more suited to their play with it being the end of march.

It looks like Basteraud will be out for the Toulon game which is nice.

Still love the Toulouse v Scarlets second half come back a while back at Toulouse ...when Toulouse were seriously awesome.

But this was a whole match performance.

Have you seen Steven Jones’ review in the Times. Talk about grudging praise.
