David hat-trick seals Harlequins knockout spot
"Quins now sit second in their pool and will seal a home knockout tie with a bonus-point win over La Rochelle next Sunday. Flanker Jack Kenningham, Cadan Murley and Alex Dombrandt all crossed in a dominant first quarter for the hosts. Stormers, who came into the game undefeated this season, opted against playing a large number of their star Springboks. Jason Gilmore's side ended their poor run of form by bagging five first-half tries, with Chandler Cunningham-South and David also getting over."
"Two more David scores were followed by a fine finish by Zach Carr, before Jarrod Evans finished the scoring. Stormers, who managed two tries through Imad Khan and Dylan Maart, will hope a victory on Saturday at home to Leicester Tigers will be enough for a home last-16 place. Harlequins have endured a tough season, winning just four times from the past 15 matches in all competitions."
Harlequins routed a much-changed Stormers 61-10 at the Twickenham Stoop, with Nick David scoring a hat-trick. Early tries from Jack Kenningham, Cadan Murley and Alex Dombrandt established Quins' dominance and helped build a commanding first-quarter lead. Jason Gilmore's Stormers, who rested many Springboks, still scored five first-half tries and managed two through Imad Khan and Dylan Maart. Two further David scores, a Zach Carr finish and Jarrod Evans' late contribution completed Harlequins' tally. Harlequins sit second in their pool and can clinch a home knockout tie with a bonus-point win over La Rochelle.
