SCARLETS BEAT AIRONI

Scarlets beat Aironi comfortably in the Welsh Rugby Union thanks to a hat-trick from Jonathan Davies. Andy Fenby started the rout on the half-hour before George North added a second before the break.

Aironi lost Jaco Erasmus to a yellow card after the restart and Davies twice capitalised. Replacement Martin Roberts took the lead to 42-3, then Davies completed an emphatic night for the Scarlets before Nick Williams replied late on.

The win takes the Scarlets to second in the Magners League overnight with Aironi remaining bottom and still searching for a first win.
