GLOUCESTER’S head coach George Skivington accepted that defeat in their opening league fixture was difficult to take. “I’m disappointed to lose as we knew what Sarries would bring as they are a clinical side. Every ball we dropped, they capitalised on and our inability to get on the front foot cost us.
“The positive is that we played with endeavour for the whole 80 minutes and to get a bonus-point was pleasing. We dropped a lot of balls in the first half as their line-speed shot us down and their work at the breakdown was outstanding.”
