FT: Cardiff 31-23 Dragons
That's all from us at the Arms Park.
Cardiff march up the United Rugby Championship table into third, while Dragons remain 15th.
That's now 19 league fixtures where Cardiff have beaten Dragons, as the longest losing streak in Welsh rugby goes on.
All eyes now turn to Parma, where Dragons will be hoping Ospreys do them a favour and beat bottom of the table Zebre, or they could very well find themselves there later tonight.

FT: Cardiff 31-23 Dragons

Teams can get a little bit rusty, it's been four to five weeks now without a game. Obviously they've been training a lot and a couple have had internal games against the other regions.
Both teams looked really rusty. The set-pieces, particularly the lineouts, weren't functioning for either teams.
Cardiff had a bit too much class in the end. I though Cameron Winnett was very good, very comfortable under the high ball, his footwork, the way he beats that first guy is really impressive, and Harri Millard as well was excellent for the small amount of touches he had this evening.

With the replacements of the Dragons, they found their way back into the game. Morgan Lloyd scored a lovely try from a break around the ruck and then from another five minutes later, he just bought a bit of tempo.
Harry Wilson as well did really well but the Dragons couldn't get anything out of that game; they were hoping for a penalty at the end.
But Cardiff, they did take their foot off the gas, the game was won after 50 minutes and they'll take the bonus-point win.
