Unbelievable!

This has to be one of the greatest games of club rugby. At 28-0 down Quins were dead and buried and consigned to a footnote in Premiership rugby history. At the end of extra time their remarkable comeback earns them a chapter of their own.
The Bears were seemingly unstoppable from the off with free running tries from Max Malins who crossed twice, Ben Earl and Luke Morahan putting them 28-0 up after half an hour. Game over?
Not if skipper Alex Dombrandt had anything to do with it. He pulled a try back before the break to give his side some small comfort.
Quins fans who had their heads in their hands in the first half were suddenly wide-eyed as their team cut loose aftern the break with Tyrone Green, James Chisholm and Louis Lynagh making it 28-24. 
Bears notched a penalty only for Joe Marchant's late try forcing extra time. 31-31.
It was a pulsating twenty minutes. Tyrone Green scored for Quins only for Malins to get his hat trick.
On a dramatic afternoon there was only one winner and it was Joe Marchant once again who set the Quins players celebrating
43-36 . Bring on Exeter.
