London Irish: Bell not shocked by Quins win

Full back Tommy Bell anticipated that Irish would fit back into Premiership life easily.

London Irish kicked off their season with a 39-29 win over Harlequins at Twickenham.

"We're not shocked with that result," Bell told 大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Adam Williams. "As a player I knew we could produce that sort of performance today.

"It's week one so we're not going to get ahead of ourselves.

"We've got some big challenges ahead.

And Bell reserved special praise for Irish veteran Topsy Ojo.

"He's on fire, he's getting better and better with old age like a fine wine.

"He's got a lot of experience, and he really does pass it down to the younger lads."
