It was not a game to live long in the memory, but Stormers had enough class and quality to prevail in bonus-point fashion.
Evan Roos, Ruhan Nel, Courtnall Skosan, Leolin Zas and Damian Willemse scored tries, while fly-half Manie Libbok added three conversions, with scrum-half Alessandro Fusco touching down for Zebre and Giovani Montemauri converting.

The weather was dreadful but the playing surface was great so there is no real excuse for such another poor standard of play from both sides. Dragons just the better team. But, what a shocking decision by the TMO not to award the Fifita try. This pretty much sums up Welsh rugby with poor teams and poor officials. The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.

He announced his selection policy from the outset with naming a poor OF as Captain, retaining an equally poor Youngs and Vunipola brothers when there were many better EQP in the Premiership. SB revival of Leicester was based on SA muscle and a terrific Welsh flanker he has generally ignored young English talent.
