as they ended the first with another try after<br />
once again some brilliant hands from the<br />
Warriors but a successful captain’s challenge<br />
from the <strong>Dragons</strong> showed a knock on in the<br />
build-up.<br />
Moments later they did get their try with hooker<br />
Turner powering his way over from the back of<br />
a dominant driving maul, to extend the away<br />
side’s lead. Thompson added the conversion to<br />
give Glasgow a 22-13 lead.<br />
Glasgow thought they secured their bonus<br />
point try with Ali Price crossing after another<br />
neat backline move before the scrum half<br />
sniped from the ruck to get over - but it was<br />
again brought back for crossing in midfield.<br />
A nervy 10 minutes followed with <strong>Dragons</strong><br />
desperately needing the next score and<br />
Warriors trying to keep their intensity and<br />
pressure on the home side.<br />
The home side started to up the tempo heading<br />
into the final quarter, but they couldn’t find a<br />
way through the Warriors defence, despite<br />
some heavy and hard carrying.<br />
The boot of Davies brought <strong>Dragons</strong> within<br />
six points after another penalty making it a<br />
nervous final five minutes for the Warriors.<br />
But Glasgow sealed a well-earned bonus point<br />
win with replacement McDonald putting the<br />
final nail in the coffin for the away side in the<br />
final play of the game.<br />
