No offence to any individual player but that's very
disappointing.

Looking forward to seeing what the youngsters can do, Tizard and
Hammond are probably the future of our second row so will be
good to see them partnered up. Hopefully it can be similar to
the game last season versus Clermont where we put out a weakened
team and actually put in a really good performance.

Good to see Earle back from injury, and interested in seeing
Green playing FB

Confirms we have no ambition to win this trophy and concentrate
on premiership 🤔

Whilst it might be interesting to see a few players who haven't
appeared for a while, and see some new combinations, it's
effectively a 2nd XV selection. Like QP, I'm a bit disappointed
that we're not putting out a full strength side and see how far
we can go in the competition. I appreciate it's a congested
season and you can't put out first choice every week, but this
selection does smack of surrender, and solely prioritising a
premiership campaign when I don't believe we can beat a full
strength Exeter or Bristol this year is strange. Maybe it's more
financially lucrative to finish 3rd/4th in the Prem than win the
Challenge Cup ?

I know what you mean, but perhaps it is inevitable in a season
of congested, unrelenting rugby for the first XV but for nobody
else? There must be rotation. It is still an experienced front
row, a promising 2nd row and a decent back row. Looks like our 2
Scottish internationals have come back just in time. I am
looking forward to seeing whether the new, fresh faces, put
their hands up for the season run in. Ulster will be a big ask
though.

While I was hoping for a bit more of a mix, if that team gels
they could be excellent.
Every player in the backs is very strong. Brett Herron will
relish the chance to start and show his control. Steele,
Northmore, Earle and Lang understand the Quins way and will be a
threat. Steele, in particular, is all action. He will score!
Lasike gives us a lot of go forward in the middle, so our style
of play is not lost in the absence of Esterhuizen. The last
point about the backs is that it is great to see Green having a
chance at full back. He is an option as the long term
replacement for Brown.
Lawday will relish a start, White is playing well this season
and Kenningham has impressed. Tizard has been very good and it
will be good to see Hammond start.
The front row is the area I am most concerned about in terms of
mistakes and discipline but, again, all of them will relish the
chance to start and prove their worth for the run in. They are
possibly playing for their futures.
It could be a competitive and successful team.

Sunday!
