Things in Europe were quiet last weekend, with competitions pausing for Six Nations.

There were a handful of capped Wallabies in action for their sides in the UK, though, in the Anglo-Welsh Cup.

Greg Holmes played for Exeter against former Wallabies teammate Will Skelton, as the Chiefs bested the London side 43-20.

Scrumhalf Nic Stirzaker came off the bench for Sarries in the final 23 minutes of the match.

Lock James Horwill started for Harlequins against Northampton in their clash, with the Saints topping Harlequins 36-10.

Nathan Charles came off the bench for Bath against Welsh side Ospreys, coming on in the 45th minute.
