Saints come from behind to beat in-form Gloucester

Tries: Pearson, Langdon, Hendy, Hutchinson Cons: Belleau 4

Tries: Llewellyn, Joseph Cons: Barton 2

Northampton Saints scored 28 unanswered points to come from behind and overcome a stubborn Gloucester 28-14 at DPD Stadium at Franklin's Gardens.

Gloucester had the better of the opening exchanges with tries from Max Llewellyn and Will Joseph opening up a 14 point lead, before Tom Pearson responded for the Saints.

Curtis Langdon's effort on the verge of half-time brought the scores level, but it took until the final quarter for the Saints to really seize control of the game.

George Hendy added a third try after a pinpoint pass from Anthony Belleau before Rory Hutchinson's late score put the game beyond the visitors.
