Leinster last night travelled to Wales to face Newport-Gwent Dragons, but despite the presense of their full compliment of Irish players for the first time this season, they were unable to come away with a win as The Dragons picked up thier third win in a row with the 34-13 bonus point victory over Leinster.



Leinster conceded a try after only three minutes, but went ahead after a Shane Horgan try that was converted by Felipe Contepomi. The two sides then exchanged penalties, but the Dragons then picked up another try when Gareth Wyatt went over for his second try of the night. This try went unconverted but Ceri Sweeney got another penalty for The Dragons before half time making it 16-10 at the interval.



Leinster looked a bit tired in the second-half, and indispline cost them, with Ceri Sweeney scoring two penalties while Leinster only scored one in the second half. This put the scores at 22-13 with the match almost over, but The Dragons picked up a bonus point with another score before the end.
