Premier 15s: Saracens overcome DMP Durham Sharks to go top
- Published
Cleall also scored a try when the sides met earlier in the season
Saracens moved to the top of the Premier 15s table after a comprehensive 104-0 win over bottom side DMP Durham Sharks on Sunday.
Sarries had the opportunity after Gloucester-Hartpury defeated leaders Bristol 36-14 on Saturday.
And they dominated against their opponents, running in 18 tries with hat-tricks for England pair Marlie Packer and Poppy Cleall.
The Sharks are yet to pick up a point this season.
In a game with 10 different try scorers, there were also doubles for Hannah Botterman, Rachel Laqeretabua, May Campbell and Alysha Corrigan.
On Saturday, Gloucester-Hartpury put pressure on the top four with their surprise bonus-point win over Bristol.
They took an early lead after tries from Sisilia Tuipulotu and Zoe Aldcroft but Bristol managed to go in at the break 14-12 up thanks to a penalty try and Keira Bevan's score.
The visitors made another rapid start after the break and Rachel Lund scythed through defenders to score before Emma Sing touched down for the bonus point and Ellie Underwood added two more tries.
In the weekend's other game, Exeter dominated the second half to defeat Sale Sharks 43-7 and go third.
Exeter led 14-7 at the break but ran in five more tries in the second half through Laura Delgado, Linde van der Velden, Emily Tuttosi, Merryn Doidge and Brooke Bradley.
Round 10 games between Wasps and Loughborough and Harlequins and Worcester were postponed because of Covid-19 cases among players and will be rearranged.
The BBC Sport website will stream the round 11 fixture between Exeter and Harlequins at 14:30 GMT on Sunday, 16 January.
