Stephen Jones in The Times:
"In the final analysis, Harlequins did not have the composure
and the stature of a true European to tender, just a vigorous
team on the way up. At present they stand outside the elite,
some way behind the likes of Saracens and possibly the likes of
Leicester Tigers, the latest English club to approach the very
summit."
What an absolute tool that man is.

Oh. So any criticism at all - including saying "I'm angry we
missed that kick" - is slating players? I haven't even blamed
either of those things for the loss.
Ridiculous to say that's slating players.

Some things mentally to work on for me, seemed to consistently
struggle once the difference was within 3 points. Had a feeling
we would be out by less than 3 points. (Last week's errors or
this)
With a different ref could have seen harsher punishments for the
Montpellier infringements near the 5m area. Not handing MP
possession by getting in the way.
Otherwise handling errors need to be cleaned up.
Much better at the breakdown this week, and we did win the match
by 13 points if not the round.

His saltiness levels are way off the charts.At this point he’s
just embarrassing himself. Time and again he just can’t bring
himself to praise Quins in any given way. The less said about
him the better. My final analysis of him as a pundit is somewhat
standing outside of the elite when it comes to fair punditry.
Bore off Stephan Jones

One obvious positive from today I think the majority of us will
agree on was not playing in that swamp coloured kit again
😁

Excellent motivation for the boys next Saturday.
Remember that not only has he got the Times readers on his back
hammering him but he and Laurie have had a spat on twitter in
the last few weeks. So it really goes deep with him - never mind
perhaps his beloved Saracens will win in the challenge cup.

Just back home from the game and catching up on the comments.
The first half was an exhilarating watch. Running rugby in the
sunshine it doesn't get much better. The second half is what
turns people off watching rugby. Montpellier killing the clock
at every opportunity, ably abetted by weak referring.
Still, despite all the beautiful rugby on show from Quins, like
last week it was our own errors which kept giving Montpellier
field position. I think that's what so frustrating. Definitely a
lost opportunity.

Not too gutted we lost, a shame but we gave it a good go.
Lessons to be learnt as this is a step up from the Prem.
Hopefully Evans is ok, need him for the run in. Likewise, would
be nice to see Lewies and Chisholm back also

A really good game to watch and a shame we lost.
I won't be wanting to have a word with the ref in the car park
or wishing violence on a member of their medical team or
deciding our players aren't up to it. I'll just enjoy my tea.
