Top Marks for Sarries
MARK McCALL’S Sarries laid down a Premiership marker by thrashing last year’s beaten finalists.
The European and domestic champions scored five tries to lay the Chiefs to waste even without internationals Owen Farrell, George Kruis, Duncan Taylor and Chris Wyles.
Lions wing Sean Maitland scored two and there were others for Alex Lozowski, Ben Spencer and Jackson
EXETER SARACENS
Wray while Maro Itoje, Jamie George and the Vunipola brothers Billy and Mako also put in big shifts in front of England coach Eddie Jones.
But they were upstaged by the lesser names according to boss McCall. He said: “The people who played really well were our unheralded players. Jackson Wray was brilliant, Richard Wigglesworth was outstanding and Brad Barritt captained really well. People come in and control things.”
That makes it 12 wins in a row but Exeter, who managed a Luke CowanDickie try, have now lost their first two games and are bottom of the table.
Boss Rob Baxter said: “There was some good stuff there but you can’t just be good against Saracens – you have to be very good.”
