Agreed. Ulster shaping up to be the pivotal fixture.
Also Bath still have to play Toulouse and Racing.
Toulouse will top the group but wide open otherwise.

Doesn't look good. I can't believe it wasn't spotted during the
game. Will it get cited?

The TMO and Ref had a pretty appalling day at the office.
Toulouse were sublime in attack, but if they’d been refereed to
at least the minimum standard of player safety then the game
should have been a lot closer.
It’s also worth bearing in mind that the Toulouse pack are
apparently paid more than the whole Quins squad. And appear to
have spent most of it on food.

Something we've had problems with recently is our work on the
goal line, both attacking and defending. Our inability to
prevent successful lineout drives against Saracens meant that
every penalty in our half was 5 or 7 points. IIRC they converted
3 in a row.
Conversely we've had difficulty in converting attacking
lineouts. I think we're going to continue to suffer when up
against big, expensive teams.

I thought there were a lot of cheap shots during that one.
Obviously Marcus but also a number of late/off the ball tackles
that crossed a line. Then the hit on Dino. Unnecessary as they
were far better than us too.

Any updates on Dino yet? Worried it was a neck problem at the
time, and the club's statement was understandably vague given it
was mid match

I’m pretty disgusted by that. I was expecting that they’d accept
the YC (for all that it was a poor justification that as far as
I can see ignored several salient points) because of the need to
protect referees from criticism. But it’s just wrong that Ramos
was not cited for making deliberate contact with the head of a
player off the ball and away from play.
