Quins display one of worst I have ever seen - Monye

Ugo Monye calls former club Harlequins' 48-0 defeat by Gloucester "one of the worst performances I have ever seen".

Harlequins' head coach Jason Gilmore called the performance in the 48-0 defeat at Gloucester "totally unacceptable"

Quins conceded eight tries in their heaviest league defeat for 26 years and are bottom of the early Gallagher Prem table.

"They got smashed in the scrum and the line-out. Their backfield coverage was poor. They got smashed at the gain line," Monye said on the Rugby Union Weekly podcast.

"They didn't score a single point in a league where they're literally handing out points for free [this season]."

Monye, who came through the Quins academy and played over 230 games for the London club, said the players and staff may find it hard to analyse the performance in training.

"I'd love to know, when they go into their meeting and they try and draw a line under it, where they try and begin", he said.

"It was one of the worst performances I have ever seen in the Prem, by any team.
