Saracens into cup last four
SARACENS set up an LV= Cup semi-final at home to Northampton next month with a five-try victory over Exeter yesterday.
Nick de Jager scored twice while Tim Streather, Catalin Fercu and Matt Hankin also crossed as Sarries pipped Gloucester to top spot in Pool One by beating the Chiefs, who had already secured a last-four place, 35-18 at Allianz Park.
London Welsh came close to ending their losing streak, only for two second-half tries from Newport Gwent Dragons to inflict a 17-13 reverse and a 23rd straight loss.
