Llanelli 40 Gwent Dragons 6
Llanelli will meet Connacht in the Celtic Cup quarter-finals following a resounding five-try victory over Newport Gwent Dragons at Stradey Park.
Outside-half Gareth Bowen supplied 16 points with his boot and wing Tal Selley claimed two tries as the Scarlets booked a home clash with the Irish side in the last eight.
The first half was almost all Scarlets as they led 23-6 at the interval. Bowen, the leading scorer in Celtic rugby, went to 50 points for the season within 16 minutes with three penalties as the Dragons were put on the back foot.
Bowen also added two conversions following tries from Selley and full-back Barry Davies. Selley went over the whitewash after charging down an attempted clearance kick from Lee Jarvis, while Davies finished off a well-worked move following a break from a scrum by number eight Emyr Lewis.
All the Dragons could muster in the first half were two Jarvis penalties, and even when Llanelli were reduced to 14 men on 32 minutes because of the sin-binning of scrum-half Dale Burn, for a punch, the Dragons failed to cash in.
The match was over as a contest within five minutes of the second half of the restart when Richard Rees scored the first of Llanelli's three post-half-time tries.
After the match drifted during the second period hooker Steve Jones saw the referee's yellow card for a punch nine minutes from time.
With Newport down to 14 men the game opened up for the Scarlets who ran in two tries in the final six minutes through replacement scrum-half Mike Phillips and Selley.
