Rynard Landman made Munster pay for their missed opportunities as Newport Gwent Dragons completed a Welsh clean sweep of GUINNESS PRO12 wins this weekend.

The Dragons welcomed the Munstermen to Rodney Parade having won just one of their last six league games but they emerged with a 22-6 victory on Sunday afternoon.

The boot of Dorian Jones kept the visitors at bay throughout and Landman scored the game’s only try late on as Munster slipped to a second consecutive GUINNESS PRO12 defeat.

And Anthony Foley’s charges will look back with frustration on a first half that saw them thwarted on the Dragons try line on more than one occasion.

Jones handed the hosts an early lead from the tee after Munster were caught off their feet and the Irish province had to defend resolutely to prevent that lead from growing in the opening ten minutes.

And they were level shortly before the quarter-hour mark when Rory Scannell bisected the posts with a penalty of his own, following good work from Robin Copeland.

An Ashton Hewitt knock-on halted a dangerous Dragons move before Simon Zebo thought he had grabbed the game’s first try at the other end.

A sharp break from Ronan O’Mahony caught the home side off-guard and Zebo lunged across the line, only for the TMO decide he had benefitted from a double movement.

There was more frustration for Munster when Lucas Gonzalez Amorosino ignored Zebo on his shoulder, only for a heroic saving tackle from Nic Cudd on the line to force a knock-on from the full-back.

They were behind again on half-hour mark, courtesy of a second Jones penalty, before it was Zebo’s turn to produce a try-saving tackle by the corner flag.

Scannell made it 6-6 when Adam Warren was caught offside in front of the posts and that was the way it stayed until half-time.

The Dragons went ahead for the third time early in the second half thanks to a Jones drop-goal, while a missed penalty from Tyler Bleyendaal left Munster three points adrift.

That three-point lead doubled on 64 minutes when Munster were offside, as ill-discipline continued to stifle the visitors’ chances and Jones capitalised.

Foley’s side were still within a converted try of their hosts but it was the Dragons who continued to press forward, Jones twice sending a drop goal wide of the target.

But the try arrived three minutes from time, when lock Landman sold a neat dummy and stepped inside two defenders to pile over, Jones converting.

Jason Tovey added one final penalty for good measure as the Dragons recorded just a second victory over Munster in their last ten encounters.
