Daly and Lewington score tries in 50-12 thumpingFin Smith inspires Northampton to victory over Exeter
Mark McCall was delighted at the way Saracens were able to adapt in adversity after a thumping 50-12 win against Newcastle Falcons at Kingston Park.
The reigning Premiership champions travelled to the north east without a number of their England stars, who were rested after coming straight back in last week. They then lost lineout caller and second row Callum Hunter-Hill in the warm-up, with back-rower Ollie Stonham coming into the starting line-up out of position at the last minute. Despite that, Sarries were able to overcome a slow start to wrap up the bonus point by half-time and make it three wins on the spin, to the delight of director of rugby McCall.
