Two second-half tries by replacement Sonny Parker sealed a comfortable win for Ponty at the Stadio Flaminio.

The New Zealand-born centre's opener was a beauty as he burst through the Roma defence from 55 metres.

Fly-half Neil Jenkins contributed seven out of eight conversions, landed two penalties and got a try for a 25-point haul.
