Fraser Dingwall: Northampton centre says Saints must 'entertain' in both attack and defence
Fraser Dingwall says Northampton Saints must become entertainers in both attack and defence to make sure of a place in the Premiership play-offs.Northampton have scored 441 points this season, second only to leaders Saracens, but their against total of 452 is the highest in the Premiership."Giving them two cheap bonus points at the end is frustrating."
"That's the brand of rugby we're playing, and that boils down to us wanting people coming down regularly and supporting because that's a massive influence on us as well," acting captain Dingwall told BBC Radio Northampton. He continued: "The frustration is a positive thing because the standard we have in this team is so high, we know where we can get to and where we can be - that's why we're frustrated about those late tries.Their form is in marked contrast to that of a year ago when they lost three times in February and again, to Gloucester, at the beginning of March, before pulling themselves together with five wins in the next seven to make sure of a top-four finish.
He scored Northampton's final try against Gloucester, crossing after a fluent move from their own half.
