Clinical Quins show up Connacht flaws
The Londoners’ pace and ability to capitalise on their chances were key factors in a victory that consolidates their lead in Pool One and ensured the Westerners are unlikely to qualify for the knock-out stages.
This was not a vintage Connacht performance. Although they created opportunities and had plenty of possession, they lacked the necessary composure in defence and attack. In contrast, the former Challenge Cup winners, boasting five internationals, possessed a well-organised defence and gave little away at the breakdown in this first match of a double-header between the sides.
