HARLEQUINS ANNOUNCE SQUAD TO PLAY WORCESTER WARRIORS
Friday, 15th February 2019 @ 12:00
ROBSHAW AND HORWILL LEAD THE TEAM AS GALLAGHER PREMIERSHIP RUGBY
RETURNS TO THE STOOP
Chris Robshaw and James Horwill lead Harlequins as co-captains
in their Gallagher Premiership Round 13 fixture against
Worcester Warriors at The Stoop on Saturday (kick-off: 15:00).
In a side packed with international caps, Joe Marler starts in
the front row with Max Crumpton and Will Collier while Horwill
partners Matt Symons at lock with Robshaw at Openside, Jack
Clifford on the Blindside and Alex Dombrandt resuming at Number
eight.
In the backs Danny Care, England’s most capped Scrum-half, joins
up with England U20 Fly-half Marcus Smith with Ben Tapuai and
Joe Marchant in the centres and a back three of Nathan Earle,
Gabriel Ibitoye and England’s most capped Full-back Mike Brown.
Head of Rugby Paul Gustard said: “We have not had a game for two
weeks and in that period we have freshened up players and staff.
It has been a great opportunity to assess, reflect and recharge
and the players have applied themselves exceptionally well. We
are pleased with the continued progression we have seen over the
last few weeks.
“We have been in good form of late with some important results
at home and away in the Premiership and Europe and we are
showing signs consistently of being the team we can be as we
continue to develop and grow as a squad.”

It's one hell of a side. And J Chis to come off the bench into
that pack.

I did say that Wallace wouldn't make the 23 when the Premiership
returned.
Great 23. Should be aiming for 10 points from the next two
games.

Only surprise is that Salli is dropped (not listed as "not
considered)

Interesting to see that Saili has been some kind of "dropped"
for this game. Taps preferred - let's hope he picks up where he
left off earlier this season!
Two 6.5s sharing the gritty work around the park, with the
wrecking ball number 8. Think that'll work well against
Worcester. No Te'o is a shame for us (he's woeful) - Mills and
Venter are dangerous, as are their wingers.
I'm confident though - we're putting out a very strong team.
Buzzing for tomorrow.
COYQ!

Out of the 2 games, Worcester (on paper) is easier than Bristol.
I can understand why Salili will be held back for next week.
It's important to keep the squad fresh and all of the key
players match fit.

Great all round squad for Worcester.
I prefer Saili over Tapuai for the 12 shirt, I just feel he has
more spice and flair about him. Both great players though!
Looking forward for tomorrow!
