Just back from the game and, as usual, have spent a few minutes looking at the comments on ours and the opposition's boards. Must admit I am puzzled. To me it seemed like we were on top of Glos throughout the game and they never looked remotely like scoring. Had our penalty count been less extreme (and my eyes aren't good enough to see why we were penalised in every instance) and had we been a bit more clinical in our finishing I felt that we would have beaten Glos by c 30-40 points. They were poor in most aspects and their vaunted back play never materialised. Whilst pleased with the win I feel cheated of a bonus point and am wondering why it is that we were not awarded a penalty try as we dismembered the Glos scrum three times in succession five yards out. Reading the comments on the Shedweb forum would make you believe that GLos were unlucky not to have won. Really?
I think you will find that most on Shedweb take the view that quins were the better side on the day and deserved to win. After the terrible end to season and turmoil last year, most glaws fans are just pleased to at least be competitive this year.
Good luck for rest of season
