SATURDAY
POOL 3
SARACENS 50-3 SALE
MAITLAND DOUBLE GIVES SARACENS BONUS POINT
Marcelo Bosch and Sean Maitland crossed as the hosts moved
into a 23-point lead at the interval before scores from Jamie George and Chris
Wyles secured the try bonus point.
Sale had three players sent to the sin bin as Maitland
completed his double and Richard Barrington touched down.
Victory makes it three wins from three for Saracens as they
top Pool Three.
The hosts also had three tries ruled out by the TMO as Sale
were condemned to a third straight defeat in this season's competition.
Saracens are showing themselves to be a force in this competition
and with results like this have to be seen as one of the favourites for the
whole competition. Saracens have shown that when the results are needed they
can get them quite easily.
SUNDAY
TOULON 31-20 SCARLETS
GUIRADO TRY SHOWS WHY FRENCH CANT BE OUTCLASSED
The hosts smashed their way to an 11-point interval lead
with tries by Mamuka Gorgodze, Leigh Halfpenny and Romain Taofifenua.
Toulon survived two TMO decisions early in the second half
before Guilhem Guirado secured the bonus point.
Ken Owens and John Barclay scored for Scarlets with Wales
international Halfpenny claiming 16 points.
Toulon have shown in this match why they are considered the
best team in the world and whether or not they can get better will depend on
whether or not they have a chance of being European Champions. It feels like at
the moment that they don’t really care about this competition and this needs to
chance
