The dominant displays from Roebuck and Du Preez allowed Sale to secure their first away win in the Premiership this season.

Sale’s second success at the Stoop since 2008 was never in doubt as lacklustre Harlequins endured their heaviest defeat of the campaign.

Harlequins missed the quality provided by England duo Marcus Smith and Alex Dombrandt, who are away on Six Nations duty.

Ewan Ashman was also on the try-scoring sheet for Sale, with AJ MacGinty adding a penalty and four conversions.

Hugh Tizard and Tommy Allan scored Harlequins’ tries, with Allan converting both.

Sale gave second half substitute appearances to England centre Manu Tuilagi and South Africa scrumhalf Faf De Klerk on their returns from injury.
