The visitors were awarded a penalty try and there was a penalty and conversion from Wayne Morgan, plus another try from hooker Howard Williams which Morgan converted after the break.

Young Scarlets hooker Sean Beynon and youth team centre Mark Williams scored good tries for Pembroke before Vyv Davies and Phil Williams grabbed their second scores.

Replacement Martin Goodrick, centre Simon Cole and next season's skipper Richard Mason also crossed as Phil Williams added a further two conversions to complete the rout.
