Benson Is The Boy

Jamie Benson came on at half time in front of a packed Spurs stadium to win the game for Quins. Trailing 12-0 at half-time it looked like Sarries with their England stars back on the field would go on to win. Benson's boot had other ideas as he led his team to a 23-12 win.

The first half saw Quins struggle for fluency after after Alex Dombrandt's poor pass set up a tap penalty with  Theo McFarland barging over.

Tobias Elliott then went over in the corner to take the score to 12-0 at the break. Enter Benson.

First Oscar Beard made a break and his pass sent Waghorn in with  Benson adding the extras. He then  sent in a lovely penalty from 40 metres to take the score to 12-10.

Another pen from close to the touchline gave Quins a slender lead which was increased when a dangerous tackle from Alex Lozowski was penalised. Still tight but Alec Porter sealed the win with a last ditch try which was converted by that man again.
