Alays nice to beat Sarries on their own patch even if there's a lot of unfamiliar names on the Park. Four second half tries took Gloucs to a 29-20 Premierhip Cup victory and top spot in Pool A.

Saracens took an early lead through Tom Willis with Manu Vunipola  slitting the conversion only for Gloucs to come back with long pass from George Barton sending Jake Morris over. 7-5.

 Nick Isiekwe increased the home lead when he burst through to make it 14-5 at the break.

However,  it was Glolucs who started the second hslf in blistering fashion with Louis Hillman-Cooper receiving on the half-way to cruise round several defenders to scorch his way in for a worthy celebration. 14-10.

Sarries increased their lead with a penalty before  Jack Clement levelled the scores forcing his way over from a maul  (above). 17-17.

Vunipola nudged Sarries ahead again with a penalty,  but his side couldn't handle the Gloucester rolling maul with Seb Blake getting his side's next try to provide a four point lead. 20-24.

The victory was cemented when George  Barton raced clear to dive over the line to finish off proceedings. Quins at home on Friday - good fun.
