Northampton Saints : Murray leaves the Saints

Tries from Alex Waller and Scott Armstrong and 17 points from the boots of Stephen Myler and Ruan Lamb gave the Saints an impressive LV= Cup semi-final victory in a compelling match at a sun-kissed Franklins Gardens.

Director of rugby Jim Mallinder says that the Northampton Saints players are excited by the prospect of playing the Scarlets in Sunday's LV= Cup semi-final.

On Sunday the Saints take on the Scarlets in the first semi-final of 2012. The team has battled hard to earn themselves a home tie in the knockout stages of the LV= Cup and two of the country's form teams will go head-to-head at Franklin's Gardens.
