Billy Millard savoured a “massive” result for Harlequins as they made light of some big-name absentees to move to the top of the Gallagher Premiership with a bonus-point 24-3 victory away to beleaguered Newcastle.
The England trio Danny Care, Marcus Smith and Joe Marler were among those who sat out the trip to the north east, but Quins got themselves in front after 67 seconds through Nick David before further scores from André Esterhuizen, Jack Walker and George Hammond took the game away from the hosts.
