Saracens 34 – 21 Exeter Chiefs

Bristol Bears 7 – 62 Harlequins

Gloucester-Hartpury 28 – 24 Worcester Warriors

Sale Sharks 31 – 3 DMP Durham Sharks

In the battle of the Sharks, Sale secured a bonus point against DMP Durham Sharks in a 31-3 victory between the two bottom-of-the-table sides. It’s another worrying defeat for DMP, who sit at the bottom of the Premier 15s table with zero points. Katy Daley-McLean was the stand-out performer, setting up many of Sale’s tries.

Loughborough Lightning 14 – 36 Wasps

Megan Jones was characteristically excellent for Wasps and is easily one of the most dangerous players on a Premier 15s pitch. In the first five minutes she made one of her signature breaks, storming through Loughborough’s defence before offloading to Amy Wilson-Hardy who scored. Wasps were quick to score another try, as Maud Muir crossed the line following a line-out drive. The Brunel student has just been named in the England Women’s Six Nations squad and has developed exceptionally well under Giselle Mather’s leadership at Wasps.

Maud’s England teammate Lark Davies was quick to score a try for Loughborough Lightning, but the try of the game – and possibly the season – came from another Megan Jones offload, this time to Abby Dow. Celia Quansah secured the bonus point for Wasps before Loughborough responded with another Lark Davies try. The final two tries of the game came from Wasps as Sabia Kabeya and Abby Dow sealed the victory.
