		Saints should have scored nine minutes before the break when scrum-half Mark Robinson breached Llanelli's defensive line, but possession bobbled clear and full-back Nick Beal knocked on as he tried to gather with the try-line at his mercy.
		Robinson, comfortably Northampton's biggest attacking threat, almost scampered his way over the Llanelli line within 60 seconds of the restart, and it served as a wake-up call, with Saints seriously fancying their chances.
		A late Saints rally meant that the Scarlets could not switch off, but as if to confirm it was not Northampton's night, their Scotland and Lions prop Tom Smith departed through injury during the closing seconds, just before Grayson's second penalty strike.

		The opening quarter was evenly fought, and the Saints initially threatened to spoil the party with an energetic and in-their-face defence which unsettled the Toulousains for a time.
		The Saints bashed and crashed, but lacked any real invention, and of the stylish support and interplays of their counterparts, there was not a trace.
		Drahm landed another long-range effort to keep the Saints in touch and leave them trailing only 14-6 at the break, but had it not been for the profligacy of Elissalde from the tee, Toulouse could have already been out of sight by the time the half-time oranges were being sucked.
