Jean-Luc du Preez makes a good run as Sharks penetrate the Saints 22

Sharks now getting close to the Saints 22

Northampton Saints have won only once since the return to Gallagher Premiership Rugby:

Their 27-3 victory at London Irish in round 15 highlights their worst ever home slump in Premiership Rugby having lost six in succession at Franklin’s Gardens.

Sharks win their lineout just outside the Saints 22

Saints turn the ball over at the breakdown and Mitchell clears it with a box kick once again, and it travels out for touch

Sharks now five metres out

Sharks win the subsequent lineout and send the ball through the hands to get the ball within the Saints 22

Saints win the lineout and hand the ball to Biggar who clears for touch

Sharks play the ball through the hands and onto James who gives a grubber that travels out for touch seven metres out

Langdon's throw in is good and the Sharks go onto the attack just inside the Saints half
