I wasn't there, so I don't know if it may have worked, but in the last few minutes against Wasps, had we kicked for the corner, won the line out and driven a maul to the line and found that bashing away over wasn't working, that a quick dummy play to back and a switch back inside to whichever FH we had on the field at the time for a drop goal may have got us over the line...

Dont need a FH to kick them, Care can do it no problem.

I know he's done it before and is supposed to be good - but had thought that he might be supplying the first phase ball from maul/breakdown. But a one-two between Care/Smith/Lang back to Care would be a neat training ground number to have own your pocket for a needed 3 points...

Cant remember the last time we saw a decent drop goal for Quins. Its a pretty easy skill to be honest, even I used to be good at it, although not at quins level. Still cant understand why Deano never used Danny to drop goal in the game that can never be mentioned.

Have to agree, it was the wrong call against Wasps. I can only assume that Buchanan's unreliable throwing under pressure swayed the thinking. IIRC, against Saints in the 2012 play off semi, DC tried one whilst running off the back of a scrum but was (rightly) disallowed as the ball didn't hit the floor first.

There have been so many times this season where we have coughed up ball after multiple phases in the oppo's 22 when after 5 phases a drop goal would have given us something. Plus, if we get a reputation for it, defences will be more prone to giving away penalties, trying to stop it.
