Warriors rue their wasted chances

WORCESTER boss Alan Solomons complained that the scoreline did not reflect the match.

“It does not reflect that game at all,” he insisted after a defeat by four tries to one.

Worcester missed out on two clear try-scoring chances in the first half when forward passes ruined the attacks. And in the second half an attack led by Ollie Lawrence ended in a poor pass to the supporting wing Nick David.

Solomons added: “That was the big difference we just did not close down our opportunities.”

Worcester are now bottom, having won once in four Premiership games, but Solomons insisted his squad will pull through.

“We are training well and we just have to stick at it,” he added.

Man-of-the-match Dan Biggar described the win as ‘massive’ for Northampton. “We played some really good rugby in the first half and could have been further ahead,” he claimed.

Biggar hopes Saints will now ‘turn the corner’ and that winning will become a habit once more but boss Chris Boyd reminded his squad: “One swallow does not make a summer.”
