Bradley Davies gets across the gainline - little pop pass to Aled Brew and he gets in on the try scoring

14 0 - 15

Jones makes it two from three from the tee

17

Ryan Jones takes the penalty quickly and sets up the platform for fellow back-row Toby Faletau who crashes over...far too easy for Wales
