Not taking the 3 felt like a mistake, but now it looks disastrous

I fucking hate supporting Quins. It must be nice to follow a club that just does things in a clinical manner and doesn't need last minute drama every. Fucking. Time.

Blimey. Hell of a game.
When Glasgow didn't get a yellow or a PT for killing the maul a yard from the line then Murley's try was ruled as separation I was ticking a bit, but we definitely got some hugely impactful decisions after that. French refs always give both sets of fans plenty to gripe about...
Really like how Glasgow play. Both sides made crucial errors, both produced fine scores in tricky conditions, both were up for the battle. Quins lineout came good in the end but was a familiar disaster for much of the game. Scrum was a real weapon.
Marcus was fabulously good at times but I was disappointed with a few of his kicks from hand and his tackling was flimsier than usual. The real problem from a Quins perspective was incredibly needless errors - Green with the ridiculous quick lineout, Green dropping a kick into touch, Danny fumbling ball straight back to Glasgow from a kick off we had retained, Lewies forward pass to Green in his own 22, Esterhuizen with what looked like an insane attempt at an offload at just the wrong time, Marler's card, etc. Really felt like we were handing momentum to Glasgow time and again. But there were three huge defensive sets that won it in the second half, epitomised by Glasgow losing their nerve with that extremely low percentage kick with the last play...

That's not even a high tackle from Lawrence is it? Not sure why it's being replayed.
Dunn on Feyi-Waboso doesn't look great,

Great defence by Bath.
So boring Exeter, and a penalty offence every breakdown.
