Sarries feeling Goode

GOODE VIBRATIONS ... Alex's return will boost Saracens' hopes

SARACENS have been given a huge boost as they bid for a third Twickenham final in four years.

Alex Goode and Will Fraser are back from injury as Sarries face Northampton in the Premiership semi-final at Allianz Park tomorrow.

Rugby director Mark McCall said: “Under Jim Mallinder and Dorian West, Northampton have also been a very consistent side in recent seasons.Like us, they have regularly made the semi-finals of this competition.

“Both teams know each other well, but both teams have players who can turn a match in an instant. I am sure it will be a fiercely-contested encounter. It’s one we are very much looking forward to.”

Northampton captain Dylan Hartley said: “When you get to this stage you have to beat the best to win it.

“Saracens come into that category, so we go there armed with all the knowledge gained from our massive clashes in recent seasons.”
