Good! Table is tight enough, which is great.

Scarlets away to Treviso, currently 12 - 10 to Scarlets at half time

Borders no.2

Harsh there against Treviso. Scarlets killing the ball on the line but with advantage Treviso spread it wide. Dudley Philips calls advantage over and the final pass goes forward.

Borders no.2

Disastrous scrum from Treviso and Scarlets on course to top the league.

Borders no.2

Treviso would wreck your head, turnover try to give them hope and then hit the post with simple conversion. 15-19.

Borders no.2

Treviso in for a try and lead with 8 minutes remaining. Maul causing Scarlets a lot of problems.

Zzippy

Is there a legal stream for this or where is it available?

Borders no.2

Treviso's Scotland moment there. Dubious call of a knock on which looked like a knock back. Treviso player gathers it and called a penalty. Shingler kicks it.20-22.

Borders no.2

On RAI Sports. Treviso knock on late on and their race looks run.

Dammit, a Treviso win would have suited the rest of us nicely! Finished 20-22.

Borders no.2

Full time 20-22. Only positive was it was only 3 tries for Scarlets. Treviso probably deserved something but when you miss the sort of conversion Hayward missed after their 2nd try its hard to get a result. Interestingly though for the decisive penalty call Dudley Philips said he couldn't go upstairs to check it, given how ridiculous some of the issues referred to the TMO are it isn't particularly fair to lose a game to such a contentious call.

6 losing bonus points for Treviso now. They do have 2 games to come against Zebre though which may help them get a badly needed win.

Zebre 7 - 0 up against the Ospreys

b.gud

Half time now, Ospreys are 22 - 12 up

A good move for him and the Scarlets. Patchell has real potential at 10 and needs a consistent run in that position something the Blues never gave him.

Hopefully will see him start to fulfill that potential with what should be a serious looking backline developing at the scarlets.

A full strength backline for the scarlets will certainly be one of the more exciting lineups in the pro12

Gareth Davies
Rhys Patchell
Tagicakibau
Scott Williams
Jonathan Davies
van der merwe
Liam Williams

If only they could turn Liam Williams sound.

If Liams Williams and Chris Ashton had a child, it would have the most punchable face in the history of existence.

Borders no.2

Lively game so far. 20-13 to Scarlets.

wp_rathead

really enjoyable game
C'mon Ospreys- never seen Parc Y Scarlets so full- great to see

wp_rathead

something beautiful about a tighthead prop sprinting down the wing- great try by Ospreys to take the lead
been a cracking game

former total

That result is great news for the Irish provinces.

Borders no.2

Good game at the moment between Edinburgh and Glasgow. Glasgow started out like they would win comfortably but Edinburgh have been on top since most particularly at scrum time. 10-5 at half time.

Good win for Zebre at home to Treviso. Led 16-3 at half time but Treviso led at the death only for Zebre to score a try to steal the win. A 7th losing bonus point in 10 games for Treviso. I make it they have lost 21 in a row now. Disappointing to see given they finished a strong mid-table only 3 years ago. 5 home wins for Zebre between both competitions but still only 6 between them with Treviso having home advantage next Sunday.

Some win for Edinburgh and look's like Cardiff gonna beat Dragons
