That's pretty poor, even for a nothing game.
3000+ according to the announcer, I don't believe it.

Surely that must be a record low attendance.  Can only imagine the atmosphere.

Thanks for the updates. Twitter is definitely less detailed than in previous times!

Well done Quins. Let's keep this winning momentum up for the tougher tests ahead. I bet the atmosphere among the boys will be great!

Thanks for the updates. Sounds like Herron had an off day with the boot. Anyway particularly good? (Or poor)

Erm, I've just noticed something on the Premiership Rugby website regarding the Prem Cup. Go to the Fixtures & Results page for the competition (HERE), and scroll down to the Semi-finals & Final. Look closely at the venue they've listed for those three games. A little searching for that venue flags up this place in Italy! That's got to be a mistake, Shirley!

Looks as though it has the capacity to suit a L Irish game!

Just got home from the game. From the forwards I would say Bothma and Evans were the stand outs and were busy throughout. We had alot of rotation in the second row with HIA and the sin bin. Lambert carried frequently in the first half and there were a couple of nice touches from Dombrant when he came on. Clifford's injury just before the break looked pretty bad. Line-outs were very poor again, rarely taking clean ball from our own and frequently not competing on LI throw in. Lang made a fantastic try saving tackle for us then to lose our line-out 5m from our line.

First half Saili took alot of ball at first reciever but couldn't get his off-loads going. Herron was steady, not a great performance from the tee, but got the crucial one at the end. Great finish from Ibitoye for his try. Murley went off at half time, not sure if he picked up a knock. Interesting line up at the end with Morris at 13, Ismaiel looked comfortable when he came on. We really increased the intensity in the last 10 mins. The crowd was so small you could hear our boys becoming more vocal.

LI probably deserved more, the knock on just before the line would have been gutting. Did anyone see who made that tackle?

Defence was pretty good, especially when down to 13.

I suspect we will see a few more of our big guns next week. Hopefully that will sort out the line-outs!

How did Landajo fare? I’ve been looking forward to seeing him.

Fearless, why not? Spreading the game is good!, (and its only a 3.5 hr drive for me if we reach the final!!!)

"In the semi-finals stage, the team seeded 1 will play the team seeded 4 (this will always be the team that qualified as the highest ranked pool runner up) at the home ground of the former. The team seeded 2 will play the team seeded 3 at the home ground of the former. The winners of each of these fixtures will progress to the final. The final will be held at the home ground of the finalist team which finished with the highest seeding in the pool stages."

Judging from the report of the matchin TRP the line out is still a mess. I shall be mad if we have to go through another season of dreadful line outs it has to be sorted out once and for all.

The line out is most definitely still a mess, especially disappointing as Gussie had said that they had been working on it through the summer.
