Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall blames his side's poor discipline for their first defeat of the season at Exeter Chiefs.

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall has blamed his side's lack of discipline after they slumped to a first defeat of the season at Exeter Chiefs.

Kelly Brown and Chris Ashton were both sent to the sin bin at Sandy Park as Sarries were narrowly beaten 14-12.

"It was a difficult game in the conditions but their fundamentals were much better than ours," said McCall.

"You can't afford to come to a place like Sandy Park and lose two men to the sin bin. On top of that we gave away a number of other penalties which had consequences in the match - something that we had prided ourselves on wasn't as good today."

The result means that Saracens have dropped down to third in the Aviva Premiership table.
