Line Up For Sunday - Thoughts?

I have been in conversation with my Glaws mate: comparing teams,
considering strengths and seeing how we can both make it to the
final ("beat Exeter and Sarries, easy!")
I was just wondering what our thoughts were about possible
changes for the weekend?
Ben Tapuai has been very good but I wonder if Saili will get a
chance to start. I expect Smith to be back in and hope Care is
back. Marchant, Chisholm Sr., Earle and Brown should make up the
remainder of the backs, if Gabs and Murley are still out.
In the pack, I expect Marler to start, although Boyce played
well. Elia, Collier, Symons and Horwill should remain. I wonder
if Dombrandt will be given a rest? Chisholm Jr. is a great
option and must be pawing the ground for a start! Robshaw and
Clifford should get the nod, with Glynn (who was good last week)
maybe a bit unlucky to drop to the bench.
Hmmmmmmm!

I wonder whether Marchant will be rotated out, with the Sarries
game in mind. Collier too possibly, based on number of starts
recently. It might depend how Gustard sees the games - better to
bank on a win at home and regard Sarries as a long shot, or try
for both and risk getting nothing.

I am not sure about Care. I saw something on Instagram which
suggested he and Visser are still in rehab.

I agree with TBQs team. No need to rotate, we have 2 weeks till
we play Sarries. If Care does not make it, I expect Lewis will
start despite having baldwin on loan. I think Chisholm has
played well on the wing so no disaster if Gabs/Murley are
injured

Is Morris injured or just out of favour?
For me, Care being back is the biggest factor in whether we can
be confident or not.
I'd play
Brown
Earle
Marchant
Saili
Morris/Chisholm
Smith
Care (or Lewis otherwise)
Dombrandt
Chisholm
Robshaw
Symons
Horwill
Collier
Elia
Marler
Boyce/Auterac, Ward, Seb, Glynn, Clifford, Baldwin, Lang,
Taps/Morris

Strongest line up possible, not resting or rotation. What that
is I'm not sure. I'd pick tapuai over saili, especially as saili
is a better bench option. Back row is a really tough call,
though Chisholm might still be injured.

To my mind, this weekend is a game that Quins need to
prioritise. Win this, and we are significantly more secure in
3rd place, and making the playoffs has to be the priority. We
don’t need to win against Sarries or Exeter to finish in the top
4, though picking up bonus points would be a big help.
I hope we field the strongest team we can - not to the point of
risking players who aren’t fully fit - but we are not so secure
in our game that we can afford to rest players for a home game
against our closest competition.

Agree entirely. Win this one, and the gap between 3 and 4
properly opens up, and gives us the best possible chance of a
top 4 finish*
*never thought I'd be saying that about Quins this season...!
