Fiji Water Flying Fijians half back Simione Kuruvoli scored a double for the Barbarians but it was not enough as they went down 49-26 to Wales.

Wales romped to victory over the Barbarians to give retiring full-back Leigh Halfpenny a joyous send-off at Cardiff's Principality Stadium.

Dewi Lake, Tom Rogers and Sam Costelow crossed for Wales in the first half before Taine Plumtree, Aaron Wainwright and Kieran Hardy added further tries.

Welsh rugby also bade farewell to Justin Tipuric and Alun Wyn Jones, who scored a rousing try for the Barbarians.
