Extended Reaction | Marlie Packer credits half-time talk with turnaround against Quins
Saracens Women backrower Marlie Packer believes some honest words at half-time helped the team turnaround a deficit against Harlequins Women on Saturday.

Packer was awarded Player of the Match after an all-action performance in attack and defence, including bagging a hat-trick of tries.
