Leeds Carnegie 13-23 Northampton Saints - Aviva Premiership Highlights Round 18.

Stephen Myler admitted it was a very relieved Saints dressing room after finally ending their miserable Premiership run.

After six defeats in a row Saints registered a 23-13 win at Leeds that will be a huge confidence boost as they go into a week's holiday.

Myler found his best form to land five out of six shots at the posts in a match-winning haul of 18 points that also included a try.

The fly-half also set up Paul Diggin's try with a deft inside ball which finally killed off the game.

Myler said: "To get the win is a definite relief. We have had a sticky run of form to say the least, so it was good to put in a performance that warranted a victory.

"Headingley is a hard place to come to as they proved last week when they beat London Irish, so we knew it was going to be a tough game but we stuck in their for 80 minutes and hung on for the win."

It was Leeds who took the lead with an early penalty, but once Myler scored his try in the eighth minute Saints grew in confidence as the game went on.

"The start of it wasn't the best for us," said Myler. "We caught the re-start but before we knew it we were three points down, so it wasn't ideal.

"But that try seemed to give us a bit of momentum and we got a bit of field position after that, which gave us a good foothold into the game.

"When you get points on the scoreboard it gives you confidence to build on that.

"They were trying to do that by kicking penalties, but fortunately we were able to carry it on a bit better than they were."
