Pisi happy with victory despite ‘average’ Saints performance
Scores from Samu Manoa, George North and Kahn Fotuali’i secured a 30-25 success for Jim Mallinder’s men on Saturday evening.
They were pushed hard by Harlequins, who enjoyed the majority of possession but found themselves frustrated by some sturdy away defence.

“It was average, pretty average,” said the Samoan wing.
“We didn’t get into our game very much, but credit to Harlequins - they disrupted our ball at the breakdown and slowed us down.
“It just shows we count on our defence to win games as well and that showed here. Credit to the boys.”
