Costelow

Gray’s absence was being keenly felt in the Glasgow lineout and Scarlets extended their lead just before the break with another Costelow penalty.

Wales took three fly-halves to the Rugby World Cup but currently have none of them available with Dan Biggar retiring and Gareth Anscombe and Scarlets number 10 Sam Costelow unavailable due to injury just weeks out from the 2024 Guinness Six Nations.

At 14 years old, Deaves played for South Wales Rabbitohs with current Wales international Sam Costelow.

Dan Lydiate was second on the Dragons’ tackle chart with 17 made, including the key one on Vaea Fifita on the line before Costelow’s unlucky moment.

Fly-half Sam Costelow, who went off injured during the first half of Wales’ 27-26 loss to Scotland last weekend, is replaced by Ioan Lloyd, with Tomos Williams at scrum-half.

From the lineout Costelow tries a chip over the top looking for Tompkins but Grealy does well to get back there and call a mark before kicking clear.

The Scarlets struck through full-back Ioan Lloyd and should have hit the front only for fit-again Sam Costelow to miss the conversion and then an easy penalty with seven minutes to go.

Wing Ellis Mee took advantage with a fine run and inside pass to scrum-half Davies with Costelow converting.
