Credit for what? Tigers created nothing all night. As you said, a ‘donation’.

A win’s a win, but f me, we made hard work of that.

If and buts.

If Falcons was on the same form then a couple more clubs would be at the bottom scraping it out.

Credit for hanging in and scoring at the end. With a minute to go Quins were attacking in their 22. As I said, hardly deserved it, cool yer heels.

Looks like your confident prediction of Tigers survival was never in doubt

Sale drawing should give Quins a big boost.

Kudos to George Ford for his recent performances. Despite a couple of minor blips tonight, a great all-round fly half and a lovely distributor, especially with the timing and accuracy of the pass; and a pretty reliable goalkicker. If Tigers stay up (likely now) they will know who to thank. Ford would be great behind a dominant pack (Owen who?)
Marcus Smith too, continues to impress for a kid of 20 and looks increasingly mature in how he plays the game.
Joe Simmonds (23 or so) has also looked good this year.
The future looks quite rosy for England in the 10 slot.

Neither side will be happy with their performance - the game was hardly the Prem at its best - but Quins getting a win and Tigers a LBP isnt the worst of outcomes.
