**Cardiff scored five first-half tries on their way to a 42-14 bonus-point victory over Zebre Parma at the Arms Park.** James Ratti, Lloyd Williams and Owen Lane (2) all touched down in an opening 40 minutes that also saw the hosts awarded a penalty try. Cardiff struggled to add to their total in the second half, with tries from Erich Cronje and Maxime Mbanda reducing Zebre’s 35-0 half-time deficit, but Max Llewellyn went over in the closing stages to add some gloss, with Rhys Priestland kicking eight points and Ben Thomas two. Tim O’Malley and Carlo Canna contributed a combined four points to the Zebre cause from the kicking tee.
