    As a Quin's fan, I was jumping around like a kangaroo in my living room. UNBELIEVABLE GAME!!!!!! What an advert for Rugby, over that tripe on Friday night! Plus points - never say die with us and we are the most exciting team in the English Prem right now. Minus points - we should never of let it get that bad before a comeback, our defense has massive holes in it still. However, we have nothing to loose Saturday and can play like that. Chiefs should be worried........
    Best game since we smashed the All Blacks in the 2019 RWC and the 2019 6 Nations nail biter, when Scotland came back, to go ahead and then draw. Fantastic stuff!

    • @groovedohg
      @groovedohg 3 года назад

      Being a bias All Blacks fan, I actually recall 2 more exciting games, and both naturally involving the All Blacks. The obvious first one was the 2000 All Blacks against Australia in Sydney in front of 100 odd thousand. All Blacks scored 3 tries in the first 5 minutes and also had a big lead, but the Aussies caught up and were leading at full time, when that man Lomu scored the winning try with the last touch of the game. Highly regarded as the greatest match ever. My other was the 2013 AllBlacks against Ireland when Ireland were quickly ahead about 18 nil by half time, and were leading 3min after the final whistle when Ryan Crotty scored in the corner to level the game. A second conversion attempt by Aaron Cruden nailed the game. The best games are always when the match is won in the last minute or extra time.

    It's the most entertaining game I have seen and the best comeback since Lazarus, fantastic to watch as a neutral but I wouldn't say it was the best rugby match I've seen because both teams were fantastic at times but there were some pretty average defensive reads and some tactical naivety especially from Bristol in the second half . Loved watching it though but the Bristol coaches must be in shock as it looked as if they were just much too good for Quins in all departments, they weren't as it turned out. The most physically intense match I've seen was SA v Lions second test 12 years ago so personally I would rate that higher but I guess it depends on what you prefer in a rugby match.

    Tackle was fine and even if it wasn't, Bristol would still have to work their way up the field from their 22 and score with a man down (they were playing with 13 at this point) so can't really say they were robbed lol there is no contact to the head, its top of the shoulders in contact with each other- TMO and ref reviewed and said there was no problem so move on.
    End of the day, Bristol completely bottled it and lost their momentum- Quins certainly deserved this one.

    No I can think of two which were better. Going back to 2012 I think Edinburgh v Racing 92 was better. Edinburgh were dead and buried by halftime but in the second half they kept pegging the Parisians back it ended up 48 - 47 with the last kick. Unfortunately this match was the only match not covered by Sky. Footage does exist but I’m not sure where from. The second one is England v Scotland which ended up a 38 all draw, not bad after being 31-0 down at one stage.
