Hoping for a good game here. Dragons need to keep momentum going into the Euro Semis next week, while the Blues really need 5 points to keep up their challenge for a top 6 finish...
Having said all that they'll probably cancel each other out now and it'll be a crock of shyte...

Well worked driving lineout for the Dragons. Almost a perfect maul. 11-8

Pretorius off for a deliberate knock on. Tough call.

Absolutely brilliant try for Lee-lo, from an Anscombe chip dropping right in front of the posts.

18-8 at half time. Blues a bit off the boil to be honest. Dragons could have been closer.

Shocking yellow, the ref is a clown, and the rule is a nonsense, even when applied properly.
Amos has been very good mostly, but awful to try a dummy with two men free outside to stroll over.

But for a poor pass to James, that was a try

Blues pack pushing the Dragons scrum with ease. Pen. 3 points from Anscombe.

Patchell off. Shame, despite his poor passing, he has looked threatening

Pretorius always looks dangerous. Unlucky then

Fish down. Attrition is taking its toll on the Blues.

Stupid pen from the Dragons on the Blues 5m.
