I have just watched possibly the best 20 minutes of any neutral sporting event of the season. Stade 17-16 up into stoppage time: Quins have 29 (yes, 29) constant phases of play - three or four times coming up inches short of the tryline, crossing to and fro across the field, before Nick Evans hits a drop goal from fully 35 yards that creeps over by feet at most.

Unbelievable drama.
