WORCESTER Warriors conceded 24 second-half points to crash 36-15 in their Guinness Premiership clash against Harlequins at The Stoop.
Mike Ruddock's men looked to be well in the game at the break when they trailed only 12-8. Tries by Will Skinner and Hal Luscombe had given Quins the edge, but a Rico Gear score kept Warriors in the picture.
It was different story after the interval, however, when tries from Steve So'oialo, Tosh Masson and Tom Williams rubber-stamped the home side's superiority.
All Worcester could respond with was a charge-down try from fly-half James Brown, which he converted himself, while Adrian Jarvis kicked four conversions for Quins and a penalty but also missed four others.
Hereford United maintained their League Two promotion challenge with a 2-0 home victory over Chesterfield.
Sherjill MacDonald maintained his superb scoring run with an eighth-minute opener and Gary Hooper grabbed the crucial second goal just before the interval.
