The Scarlets claimed their first win over the season and a much-needed bonus point in a comfortable 36-12 victory over Zebre on Saturday night.
The Welsh side hit the front early and never looked back. In the opening minutes, they probed around the Zebre 22 before a slick pass from the returning Scott Williams sent Sam Lousi up the far touchline. His basketball pass inside to Sam Costelow gave the fly-half a simple finish, which Leigh Halfpenny duly converted from out wide.
Zebre were stubborn for a period after and got a try of their own when flanker MJ Pelser, which went unconverted. But the Scarlets' quality began to show through.
