GENERAL manager Billy Millard believes Quins can continue the revival that has taken them into the top four after losing for only the second time in eight matches.

“We were pretty clear about what we needed to execute against the European champions and now we need to reflect and keep driving forward,” said Millard.

“In the second half we gave away a couple more penalties and turnovers and gave them ball to kick to the corners and they are pretty clinical.

“Our kicking game was really good in the first half and our defence was pretty good too.”

forwards coach Rob Hunter said: “We showed a bit of character to come through after going two scores down. It was a tough test.

“At the moment we are dwelling on our mistakes a little too long.

“We probably got a little frustrated because we're not hitting the heights we know we can but I was pleased with the way we came through.

“Quins put a lot of heat on you and are very dangerous on turnover ball and choking the breakdown.”
