Man of the Match Alex Wootton bagged four tries as Rassie Erasmus’s side stormed to a 32-10 win which places them top of Conference A.

Meanwhile Kieran Keane recorded his first win as Connacht boss on Saturday. His side defeated the Southern Kings 32-10, securing their bonus point win with ten minutes remaining thanks to Darragh Leader.
