FIVE CHANGES TO STARTING XV THAT BEAT SALE AT THE STOOP IN ROUND
ONE.
Head of Rugby Paul Gustard has named his squad for Harlequins’
first away fixture of the Gallagher Premiership season at
Northampton on Friday evening (kick-off: 19:45).
Following last week’s 51-23 victory over Sale at The Stoop in
the first round of Premiership fixtures, Chris Robshaw leads a
strong side at Franklin’s Gardens with four changes to the
starting XV from last week.
In the scrum there are first starts of the season for Ben Glynn,
Archie White and James Chisholm while Charlie Walker will play
on the right wing.
Gustard said: "There were a lot of good things about last week’s
win against Sale but it was one win. We have won nothing more
than that match and we are under no illusions about the
challenges and quality in the competition.
"Franklin's Gardens is always a tough place to get a result. It
will be Saints first home match of the season and they will want
to perform in front of their supporters.
“There are talented players throughout their squad, they are
well coached and we as a group are looking forward to finding a
way to get the result we want.”

Brown, Wallace and Lamb all join this 'not considered for
selection' list since last week.

That's almost a full team not considered for selection, and it
wouldn't, IMHO, be a bad one at a push…. OK more forwards than
backs but Wallace is almost a wing now.... ;D

Surprised to see Bothma on the bench. I would have anticipated
Bothma at 8 with Chisholm at 6. Good luck to Archie White!

Could do with a few of those injured getting back fit. Explains
the A League selection the other night. Auterac just not
considered currently. Glad to see we went with White and never
put Ward at 7

That's a depressingly long injury list for round 2 of the
season.

Think Ward offers more than crumpton on the bench personally,
but then again he was fine last week.
Shame about Brown being injured.
Pleased to see Chisholm start. I know I'm in a minority, and
I've only watched the highlights back, not the full match, but I
didn't think Bothma was that great really. Not bad, but I didn't
see the performance that quite a few were raving about.

So is Brown dropped or injured?
