And while they failed to grab a try bonus point, Eric Elwood was delighted with the way his players turned possession into points ahead of their Heineken Cup meeting with Harlequins.

“We are back on the horse, and it sets us up for our visit to Harlequins,” Elwood said. “If someone had said before he game that was going to be the score, 30-6 with the last play of the game, we would have taken it. The good thing is we got the victory at home, it was a great crowd, and when you have nights like that, you can play ball.’’
