Well I had a cracking afternoon. Loads of tries, some great
tackles and almost no boring scrum resets. We never looked like
losing so didn’t mind them scoring. Their last try was a thing
of beauty, so all in all, great way to spend a day.

Agreed about Ward. Saw Crumpton throw up soon as he came off so
possibly he was unwell rather than a tactical change.
Agreed defence needs work today, gabs defence was terrible! It’s
like he just watches the other lads tackle and lets them run
past him!
Other than that, I’m happy. We needed a win and we got one. Onto
Bristol now...

Don’t get me wrong. BP win. But Gustard will be spitting as was
I. Whole basis of the team was this new defence and it vanished.
Ward abysmal, Gabs great going forward terrible going back. We
were shocking for their tries - and they scored and scored and
scored.
I get “we’d won” but that’s not what top 4 sides do and letting
them score 33 is not good.
And having seen the video Gustard says as a defence coach he’s
not happy.

Loads to work on defensively. Can't be too annoyed having seen
us put 7 tries past anyone though.

Agree and regardless, after the Quinssa event on Tuesday I see a
Monday morning chat coming.

7 try’s
3rd in the table
Against a team we often struggle against
Wasn’t great but Abysmal? Do me a favour if we had lost we would
have been down to 6th and that would have been bad
It was not perfect but it wasn’t abysmal that’s for sure

That's not good..I hope he was properly checked over.
I recently read about the young French player who was vomiting
post match. His symptoms were ignored by those around him.
Sadly he was found dead next morning after suffering a brain
bleed. He had incurred a head injury during the game and the
HIA protocols were not followed. No correlation was made
between the knock on the head and his vomiting. The latter
being a symptom of cerebral haemorrhage.

Often dont agree with Blucher but I'm with him/her here. Havent
been for a while & was really looking forward to today. But.....
it was quite a strange afternoon, I didnt think Quins played
very well at all, but I guess a win is win. Most of our points
came from Worcester errors, we were deadly in scoring from them,
but we removed feet from all pedals in the last 20 mins & we
didnt exactly do that much in the first 20 either. The crowd
were very quiet & subdued. It was a game of Prem Rugby wasnt it?
I walked away thinking to myself, wonder if anyone else felt
about the game the way I did? Save the performances for bigger
games.

For those of us unable to be there, did anyone stand out as
particularly good or bad? Ward has been mentioned a few times I
can see.

Gussy said the following about the game
"To score that amount of tries with the conviction and variation
in attack we did is very satisfying.
"But, as a defence coach I'm not too happy with how we leaked a
few tries towards the end.
"We've just got to look at the next game and make sure we're
motivated and prepared and make sure the plans we want to bring
in can be implemented.
"It's all about bite size chunks at the moment, I'm not
interested in the game after Bristol next week at present."
