Thought the way we clapped Sink off showed a level of class too! ;)

One of the best things about the match was that both teams can feel that they did themselves justice. There were very few moments of serious controversy around the refereeing and both teams can feel that they put it all on the pitch. Bristol certainly had nothing left in the tank at the end - they didn't die wondering.

Briz are premier champs as far as I am concerned as they won the league by topping it and for so long. I hope we will be the playoff champs

Bris were wonderfully magnanimous in defeat. They clapped our team, they said well done as we left the ground, gawd they even clapped us into the pub.

Bristol has always been a proper Rugby City.

Headache & hung over! Still in awe. Shame that Bristol get nothing for being first after 22 games & 14 points clear of us. Aint right really. What a game though & an unforgetable finish.

Because I believed that Bristol were probably going to beat us I was actually enjoying the first half just watching your lot play so beautifully. The second half nearly killed me!

I'm still speechless - I can only just type; what a game and as said above, no one deserved to lose that. Best game I've ever seen.

Unless they scored again, we would have still won due to tries scored

Thanks, I incorrectly thought we were level on tries at that point

Classy and magnanimous post. Thank you. Both teams played their part in an all time classic

That may well turn out to be the best rugby match I will ever see. From about 60 minutes, I would have been delighted and proud whoever won, but the way it finished was absolutely stunning.

Thanks to Bristol and their supporters for a great match and a great day out, and here's to an equally exciting final next week.

Being part of that with my 13yr old is an experience I will never forget, and I fully expect he'll be telling his grandchildren about it in seventy years from now, and a significant part of that is down to then friendliness of every Bristol fan we met, both in the ground and in the pub after.

Yup

If scores were level, it went to tries scored and Quins were ahead.

I guess he figured an extra minute to get a pen/dg was more important than 2 points.

Thank you Rinkadink. Your first half performance was brilliant. You and Exeter are the clear reasons why ringfencing should never come in.

This a million times.

Seconded from a Bris supporter (I won't look forward to a gloating arrogant Care on the rugby pod) but you boys absolutely deserved the win. Enjoy the final.

Lovely sentiment! As said we had no right to win that....not least due to the perplexing decision to drop-kick Briz's final conversion which would have levelled the score! Heart goes out to the Bears fans who must have been livid with that?!

Yes, it's a shame someone had to lose that. But the storyline works much better if we win it having been down and out in the first half.

Bristol by rights under the old round Robin rules are premiership champions. They have shown the way for the last 2 years and deserved to be top of the league.

Thank you.

Congratulations to Bristol for an amazing season. No small achievement to finish top of the league, especially playing excellent rugby.

Looking forward to the final now.

Very magnanimous. We had no right really. You showed in that first half what you can do, just eviscerated us.

Well done.

Whilst disappointed I'm proud of the role Bristol played in a truly incredble match between two clubs who have come a long way in a short time. Enjoy the final and best of luck.
