Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall has expressed his delight at his side's Aviva Premiership win over Gloucester on Sunday.

Sarries ran over five tries as they secured a 44-12 bonus-point victory at Allianz Park in a match that saw the opposition's Nick Wood sent off after 73 seconds for stamping on the head of Jacques Burger.

"It was a professional job done by us," McCall told reporters. "Defensively we were brilliant. It was a pleasing result and a good performance too. We were good value for our five points.

"Jacques Burger has had a difficult couple of years so to come back and put in the performances he has against London Irish and now Gloucester is brilliant for him and the club. He's an elder statesman."

David Strettle scored two of the tries for Saracens, along with Joel Tomkins, Schalk Brits and Billy Vunipola.
