For me, one major plus was how well we played in the conditions.
It wasn't the best for running rugby, but we seemed to run
everything. Some of our early season losses were in similar
conditions, and the weather undoubtedly played a part.

For me, the low point was losing at home to Warriors. >:(

Well I think the crowd deserves a pat on the back for their part
in the victory. It was clear even before the first score the
crowd was up and rocking and behind the team (yes, very
unusual!). I was a shame about the booing of Saracens score but
really I can't get worked up over it. It's exceptional
circumstances, won't happen with any other team. I prefer to
think of the noise we made from side to side and end to end
supporting our team as they thumped Saracens with a palindrome!
(41-14)

They deserve to be booed. Luckily we won't see them back at the
Stoop for quite some time. Hopefully never.

Now grizzling on their board that the ref was against them. They
were penalised THREE times during a game in which they were
absolutely thrashed.

I thought Pearce gave a lot in their favour hut would need to
re-watch. Certainly got the impression that a lot if decisions
were going their way considering how comprehensively we were
beating them.
Thought the booing when they scored was pretty funny really

I thought the booing was a bit strange but maybe the final pass
on the 2nd try was a tad forward?

The video ref was in LP's ear all match calling penlties and
offside against us but seemed rather quiet on the constant
offside by Salaries and a few high tackles too. Plus the play on
the floor at one ruck

Well the penalty count was Harlequins 12 Saracens 4, so the ref
wasn't really on our side.

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of the penalties
against us - I got the impression that they were mostly for
offside (around rucks), tackler not releasing or playing the
ball off feet - i.e. mostly around the breakdown and at line
outs. Clearly what/where we need to work more cleverly. Against
a more up-for-it opposition, that could have evened things up.

from kicks by Salaries >:(
