You have to hand it to Sarries - their academy system is world class

As a related point, I just love the look of Malins - such a talented player

10 or 15?

The teams -
Saracens Storm: Gallagher (Watson 44); Obatoyinbo, Morris (Bird-Tulloch 51), Griffiths, Segun; Malins (Taylor 44), Whiteley; Adams-Hale (Thompson-Stringer 44), Woolstencroft (Figallo 51), Judge (Maka 51); Day, Isiekwe (Kpoku 48); Reffell, Earl (Tolofua 51), Vailanu.

Wanderers: Emery; Sleightholme (Tupai 41 (Freeman 69)), Kellaway, Strachan, Pisi; Grayson (c) (Worley 29), Davies; Davis (Trinder 54), Newman (guest) (Taylor 54), Painter (Ford-Robinson 54); Jubb (guest), Carrick-Smith (guest); Coles (Betteridge 41), Onojaife, Uru (Laxton 48).

No surprise Saracens won looking at the quality of the line ups, though 89-7 is a real pasting.

sure is, not too shabby a Saints team tbh

Massive difference in the two packs with all of the Saracens pack having featured for the senior side this season (including some regulars like Isiekwe and Earl).

Backs a bit more even.

true and looks like Northampton took a battering injury wise.

Blimey. Imagine how much more they’d have lost by if we hadn’t let Carrick-Smith play.
