Glasgow Warriors representing the finest traditions of Scottish rugby by losing a match they should have won, in a way that allows them to "have a lot of positives to take from the game".

"No, no, no, yeh ok just hit the 9 anyway, play on".

I'm genuinely fucking sick of refs "coaching" players. If he's infringed, fucking ping him. He also nearly missed the Quins try at the end because he was telling one of their guys who had (illegally) come to join the drive to go back.

Should have kicked the points. 6 points up, Quins need converted try and probably get desperate. Smith never takes a speculative kick to nothing, McKay doesn’t knock on and different outcome in my opinion.

Fair enough, a try ices the game but with the way the ref was acting it would have taken away that uncertainty.

And if someone could explain how Kebble was penalised for losing his feet when he was doing the opposite in the run up to the winning try? 2 crucial bizarre scrum penalties in run up to tries and a non call for blatant offside - makes it a hard shift but still ultimately a game they should have won.

This shows our progress. We've been to the last 16 twice but were well beaten at Saracens. 

 

Quins are still a good Premiership side and we went toe to toe with them and just about did it. I thought coming back from 21-7 down to edge in front was brilliant but home advantage was big.

Losing Sione was costly but our general discipline in the second part of the 1st half was mad in the same way Quins fell to bits early in the 2nd half. 

Ref was poor. The amount of Quins high tackles that went unpunished was amazing but going to the corner then coming away with nothing instead of taking points with a penalty in front of the posts is mental when knock out rugby can come down to fine margins.
