Chris Ashton has said the combination of his ongoing England exile and his treatment by rugby's disciplinary authorities prompted his decision to leave Saracens for Toulon. The wing scored the only try of the match as Saracens beat the French side 10-3 in the pool phase of the European Champions Cup on Saturday. Victory at their Allianz Park ground in north London saw reigning European champions Saracens book a home quarter-final, although a star-studded Toulon will still join them in the last eight despite this defeat.
