Northampton Saints too strong for Worcester Warriors

Northampton Saints go top in the Aviva Premiership with a 30-14 win over Worcester Warriors.

Northampton Saints scored three second-half tries to secure a comfortable 30-14 win over Worcester Warriors in the Aviva Premiership this afternoon.

The only points in the first half came from the boot, with Stephen Myler giving the hosts a narrow lead, kicking three penalties compared to Chris Pennell's two for Worcester.

The home side's lead was extended early in the second half when they forced a penalty try, but David Lemi quickly cancelled it out with quick dash for the line.

However, two tries in just over 10 minutes from GJ van Velze put Saints out of sight with just over 10 minutes left in the contest.

The result lifts Northampton above Saracens to the top of the table.
