Great performance from Northampton as they make it 2 out of 2 in this years LV Cup. They had a great first half with two well worked tries and with Glenn Dickson clinical from the boot they always were comfortable in this match. London Irish improved in the second half with tries from Low and Kenny, but The saints always responded well with Dickson kicking them back into the game. London Irish will have to pick them selves up from this game as they face Leicester next week. while Northampton will be full of confidence as they face Newcastle. The LV Cup will continue in the new year as the Aviva Premiership games will be back next week.
Lonergan gets the yellow for slowing down the play but, The Saints fail to make the spare man count and London Irish turn it over and clear the ball out. The referee blows the full time whistle.
Saints in the 5 metre line again a minutes left can they push for the fourth try so late on.
Irish win the scrum and clear they're lines from the resulting penalty, is that the saints last opportunity gone to get a bonus point.
Come on Boys
Northampton have a scrum 5 metres from the London Irish try line they are pushing for a fourth try can they find it with 5 minutes to go.
So nearly a fourth try for the Saints as Dickson who has had such a good game today plays a poor pass with the Saints on the 5 metre line,
Surely that is game over now as the Saints get there third try of the game. After a kick from Wilson into the corner from a line out, The Saints run through the phases and eventually Nutley who has had such a good game goes over. Dickson get's the extras to kill of any London Irish hope.
Dickson gets another kick after The Exiles are penalised for being off they're feet, everytime Irish get a score the Saints come right back with a score of they're own.
London Irish are not gonna give up without a fight here. Allinson goes for a quick tap and go and finds himself 5 metres from the try line with the referee awarding a scrum to Irish. And from the scrum Low peels off from the ruck and goes over in the corner. Dorrian's conversion hits the post but London Irish are in this game now.
