BONUS POINT WIN FOR CHERRY & WHITES
Ollie Thorley marked his 150th appearance with a try as Gloucester secured a dominant bonus-point victory over Harlequins at Kingsholm. Thorley’s pace and power were key as he broke the line early to set Gloucester on the front foot.
After several phases of intense play, Ross Byrne and Ben Redshaw combined with precision to free the winger, allowing him to dot down in the corner. Byrne added the extras to extend the lead.

Redshaw continued to shine, claiming a difficult high ball and keeping Gloucester in control, though Quins mounted some threats through Marcus Smith’s clever running and kicking. Despite a few near-misses, Gloucester’s defence held firm, forcing errors and turnovers at crucial moments.
The Cherry & Whites added further scores through cohesive phase play, with Thorley powering over again and Redshaw finishing off a well-crafted team move. Gloucester’s bonus point was secured before the final whistle, leaving Quins to rue missed opportunities.
