Saints star Harrison savours first England try
Teimana Harrison reflected on an '˜awesome' experience after scoring his first England try in Saturday's win against Fiji.
The Saints flanker made his first international appearance since being taken off after just 21 minutes in the third Test victory against Australia in Sydney back in June.
And it was a happy day for Harrison, who dotted down on 20 minutes in a comfortable 58-15 success.
Dylan Hartley, who skippered England once again, and Courtney Lawes also started at Twickenham as the Grand Slam champions made it 12 wins in a row.
