AFTER toasting another home win by belting out 'Ring of Fire' in the Rodney Parade changing room, Newport Gwent Dragons go in search of an elusive Guinness Pro12 success on the road on Saturday.

The Dragons beat Edinburgh 27-19 to back up their European Rugby Challenge Cup victory against Brive, league win against champions Connacht and derby success against the Scarlets in the Anglo-Welsh.

The Johnny Cash tune was belted out in celebration on Sunday but Kingsley Jones' side haven't been singing at the ground of a Pro12 rival since beating Treviso in March, 2015.

They have lost their last 18 games outside of Newport but the Dragons' home form, plus a shock win at the Royal Dublin Society a year and a half ago, gives them some belief ahead of their trip to face Leinster (kick-off 7.35pm).

"It's four wins in a row at home now," said flanker Ollie Griffiths. "We've talked about making Rodney Parade a tough place to come and that's certainly started coming together.

"We'll be looking to get a win against Leinster, which is a tough place to go but we are going there with confidence now."

"I don't know why we haven't won away, although I think the crowd at Rodney Parade definitely lift us up a bit," he continued.

"We'll need to put right the things that we did wrong against Edinburgh to win at Leinster, because there were times when we made life hard for ourselves and momentum swung their way a bit."

Griffiths certainly did little wrong against the Scots with a stunning performance to claim the man of the match award.

The 21-year-old from Newbridge made 14 carries for 32 metres, offloaded three times, made 15 tackles and claimed six turnovers, figures made all the more impressive by him having been replaced by Nic Cudd on the hour.

The two are jostling for the 7 jersey and Griffiths, who can also play blindside, acknowledges at times it will be a case of horses for courses.

"Cuddy is so strong over the ball and gets a lot of turnovers every game and I'd like to get near that," he said.

"We are different players; I like attacking and he is probably our best defender, so it's about me getting a good balance to my game.

"It's nice that me and Cuddy are different players and are suited for different games I suppose."

After a hamstring injury suffered training with Wales sevens ended his 2015/16 in January, Griffiths was hindered by a shoulder injury at the start of the current campaign.

He's starting to hit his straps and would like a run of games but knows competition is fierce in the back row.

The Opta stats have number eight Ed Jackson in second in the Pro12 ball carrying chart behind Connacht's Bundee Aki (104 to 119) while the tackling tallies feature Lewis Evans in second (107) and Cudd in fourth (102) behind leader Sean Reidy of Munster (112).

With a hectic schedule coming up featuring Leinster, the Euro double-header with Worcester, derbies against Cardiff Blues and the Ospreys then the visit of Treviso, all will play their part.

"I haven't played as much as I'd like to through injury so far this season but fingers crossed I can get a run of games now in the Pro12 and Europe," said Griffiths.

"I'm a young guy and there's a lot of experience in that back row with Lewis Evans and Ed Jackson, so there's a good balance. Ed has been great all year and there's a lot of strength in our back row with Nic Cudd, James Thomas, Harri Keddie.

"Whether 6 or 7 just happy to be out there, but there's a lot of competition and it's down to Kingsley."
