Scarlets 23 Connacht 24 That was a poor 2nd half only scored the 3 points & how important could they be Decision making wasn't great too much going for the TBP before securing the win poor handling not kicking as well as the 1st half let Scarlets into the game & gave em confidence #SCAvCON#BKTURC

Scarlets 14 Connacht 21 A wonder try put a sheen on that half A solid opening 20 playing territory really well kept Scarlets camped in their half get a healthy 14-0 lead But the waves of compound errors Connacht string together let Scarlets back into the game
