We really missed the wingers though tonight.

We definitely missed their kick returns, it just shows how diverse a wingers job is these days.

I thought our passing was poor at times, we had many opportunities to get Gidley one on one with his opposition centre but failed to get the ball to him.

Absolutely the ball hardly moved.

And the defence out wide - Gilmour - Great chase - tackles their player on their line and the next tackle is fourty yards up the field.

Dear me!

We are not playing good rugby at all. The is no flow to our play.

Dead right. Quins outshone us tonight by miles.

The main thing though is it's another 2 points.

Well, it is in terms of league placing but in enjoyment terms it's not. I want to enjoy the rugby, win or lose, not have to put up with that kind of performance to grab two points. And we look unfit. Either that or demotivated.

Just said exactly that on another thread.

It's a worry.

Same old, same old from Saint From Prestwich (the crypto-Wigoon) who is now reduced to criticising us when we win against top four opposition.
Make no mistake the Quims are a top side and will be in the mix come September.
To all the Meli and Gardner haters out there, we missed them big time tonight.
Oh, and without Jammer we'd be totally fecked up front. Back to back MoS and no mistake.

Back in the smoke - have to say I thought Clough was your stand out tonight - thought there were 2 of him as he seemed to be everywhere.

point is when you go 16 nill up on your own ground you shouldnt have to depend on kieron scoring one of his trademark tries to get the win...we should have been well out of sight instead of the opposition nearly catching up.
for me the loss of appollo has downgraded our fitness level to what it used to be.

Agree with the Clough comment, he gets better and better.

Dominated the first half, hardly saw the londoners. Maybe on a dry night we would have had that game sewn up at half time ? Or maybe not as Londons defence was tip top and matched ours. I thought our D was a lot better last night, very impressed with it throughout the night realy, and that was with a bandaged up team to.

Low entertainment game, but great to see us come away with the 2 points and remain in pole position for another 2 weeks.

Understatement of the month there! Quins made us look like we were half asleep.
