Lessons learned

Brian Moore highlights the lessons that Northampton and Harlequins must learn from their weekend victories in The Daily Telegraph.

"In a gloriously flawed 80-minute performance against Euro giants Munster, Harlequins showed all that is good and bad about the club.

"The spirit demanded by Quins’ director of rugby, Conor O’Shea, for the Amlin Cup semi-final was apparent from the first whistle and at a venue that has reduced many good teams to a nervous pastiche of their normal selves.

"O’Shea also said in his pre-match interview that his side needed to convert more of the line breaks that they have made all season. He knows, as do the Quins players and supporters, that this is the reason for their failure to break into the top echelon of English club rugby."
