Quins were poorish, we played well and got a couple of lucky calls. Thre try at the end of the first half was, for me, a knock on by us earlier and shouldn't have been given.
Still, we've had our share of bad luck so this was due.
Eorl changed the dynamics of our forwards today, we had much more go forward and offloading ability and Mason just kept looking for work. All props were very good today.
A good performance, a well deserved win. Let's not do what Quins did and follow up a good win with a bad loss please Nathan!
If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.
good result but i dont think we ever got out of 3rd gear against a Quins side who werequite frankly, abysmal!
i thought Griffin and Eorl were immense today and wanted to prove a point that they are our 2 top props
I havent seen Eorl run like that for years - and offloading after every hit up too it seemed.
Robbo and Browny looked constantly dangerous today and Kirmond and Lunt look like they've been playing Super League all their careers.
All in all a satisfactory day without injuries or any major talking points
Really wierd today because as a team i did not think we played that well today. I think we were better against Saints but got nothing.
So many of our tries were indavidual flair Brown, Lunt, Robbo or charged down kicks Wild or mistakes by Quins.
Quins were so poor it was unbelievable thay were as bad as we were against Hull. Lots of unforced errors.
We shut down their playmakers and they seemed to have no plan B. Very similar to what we did against Catalans. Big raps to Nathan Brown he knows how to pick a team and how to change things depending on the opposition.
Mason was superb today i do not know what Brown is telling him but it is working. jacko as solid as ever but Griffin and Eorl were tremendous although Eorl looked quite unfit after his lay off.
some brilliant cameos today some of the defence by Cudjoe was excellent and the running at half back was excellent. Moore had a good game but i do not want to sound boring here but Brett Hodgson is a different class. His positioning is second to none and defensively he was excellent today.
I know it is early BUT Brett Hodgson is the best player i have seen in a C&G shirt since i started watching in 1977. I cannot remember anyone who just oozes that skill level, awareness and class that he does.
It was a fantastic tackle by Hodgson to stop that forward in the second half. And what a weird end to the game, what was Mason up to? Thank God we were miles in front, and they still missed out on scoring!

He must have thought he heard a whistle or something, looked like he was waiting for the game to end.
I thought Quins started ok, close opening to the game but our defence was awesome I thought, didnt give quins a sniff of anything at all, and when they did break the cover was so good it got snuffed out, and some brilliant tackles out on the touchflags
The back three for me were all excellent, looking for work and always there in support
Lawrence and Fatz were killing their moves constantly
Jammer had a great game, Wild class as always but the forwards laid a great platform for Brown and Robinson to run the show, which they did with style
IF Moor can sort out the occaisional wonky pass he is going to the top imo
Man of the match for me? Tough one, Bret, Brown, Robinson, Moor, Wild all deserve mentions
