Highlights: Northampton Saints v Newcastle Falcons

Newcastle get back to winning ways with a great away win against the Northampton Saints. The first twenty minutes was dominated by errors and scrums, Northampton were the first team to break the deadlock on the 20 minute mark with a well worked try by Mallinder. The Falcons hit back instantly with two tries of their own from Sinoti and Matavesi. Tries were coming from everywhere now and the Saints responded well with a penalty try for collapsing the maul, Flood was also sin-binned for conceding the penalty. The Saints failed to capitalise on this yellow card and the first 20 minutes of the second half involved both teams making breaks but failing to convert these opportunities. The Saints looked like they had wrapped up the game with a try from Hartley and penalty from Francis but the Falcons were camped on Northampton's line and they got the winning try through Latu as the clock hit 80 minutes.
