Harlequins led 13-8 at the break having played with the strong wind but Gerard O¹Loan¹s 19th minute try was cancelled by Robbie Lee in stoppage time.

Buccs dominated the second-half, going ahead for the first time with a try from Matty Walker after 51 minutes. It was all one-way traffic after that.

Ted Robinson for their third try and Paul Whittaker ensured a bonus point eight minutes from time. They finished in style with Mike Devine crossing for their fifth try three minutes later.
