Northampton Saints eased past Newcastle Falcons 35-10 in the Aviva Premiership this afternoon.
The visitors raced into a healthy first-half lead as tries from Will Hooley, Alex Waller and Ken Pisi saw them go in with a 28-3 advantage.
The Falcons came back into the game in the second period and Noah Cato went over the line for the home side with 10 minutes remaining.
The damage had already been done for the Falcons, though, and the Saints eased to victory after George North ran in a late bonus try.
