HARLEQUINS’ COACHING TEAM HAVE MADE THREE CHANGES TO THE TEAM
THIS WEEK AS THE CLUB HOST WASPS AT THE STOOP
Amongst the three changes, Captain Stephan Lewies returns to
start for the first time since March, having made his return
from a knee injury against London Irish last time out.
The two further changes come in the shape of Academy product
Jack Kenningham at openside in place of injured back row Will
Evans, while centre Luke Northmore starts at inside centre in
place of the suspended Andre Esterhuizen.
From the bench, Quins Academy product Archie White joins
internationals Santiago Garcia Botta, James Lang and Paul Lasike
in returning to the matchday 23 as part of the side’s Impact
Players.
Commenting, Scrum Coach Adam Jones said: “We enjoyed a good
result the last time we faced Wasps, and we fully expect them to
come to The Stoop looking to set their record straight.
“Much like ourselves, Wasps like to play some attractive rugby,
so there should be some great skills on show this weekend.
“We’ve had the benefit of a week off and are heading into this
one fresh and motivated to maintain our momentum as we head
towards the end of season run-in.”

Big nervous about northmore at 12 as hes so different to andre
we will shoft how we play and not sure how well he can defend
that channel. Probably a good decision though as if it works it
will be amazing and if it doesnt there are two more obvipus
replacements in the bench

Blimey that’s a decent wasps team... Shame that Chisholm isn’t
fit still as I feel we are a bit lightweight and missing ball
carriers. Big pressure on Dombrandt to step up

Their backs look about on a par with us for pace. We need to
keep Odogwu quiet, not sure how to do that though. I don’t see
that our pack should come off second best against that pests
lineup, so maybe better to keep the ball up the jumper rather
than go for the speed game this week.

Its a shame we're being denied J Willis v Evans, that would have
been a great head to head.
