HARLEQUINS’ COACHING TEAM HAVE NAMED THE MATCH DAY 23 TO TRAVEL
TO NEWCASTLE FALCONS FOR THE OPENING ROUND OF THE 2021/22
GALLAGHER PREMIERSHIP CAMPAIGN
Four players will look to make their debuts for the Club at
Kingston Park this Sunday, with fit-again prop Craig Trenier
looking to take to the field from the bench, while summer
arrivals Jack Walker and Tommy Allan get the nod from the start,
with centre Huw Jones named amongst the Impact Players.
In the absence of Captain Stephan Lewies, number eight Alex
Dombrandt leads Harlequins as they travel north, with the fan
favourite returning to Club action having made his Test debut
for England over the summer.
Four current Harlequins Academy members make the match day 23,
with flanker Jack Kenningham and wing Louis Lynagh slotting
straight back into starting jerseys they donned during the
Club’s triumphant Premiership final. Fellow Academy players Sam
Riley (hooker) and Hugh Tizard (second row) are named on the
bench.
Set to make his Gallagher Premiership debut for the Club in
Newcastle, hooker Riley looks to continue his fine form of late,
scoring a try in both of Harlequins’ pre-season fixtures after
claiming an impressive five tries in as many games for England
in the U20s Six Nations earlier this year.
Commenting ahead of his first league game with Harlequins,
Senior Coach Tabai Matson said: “It’s great to get our
competitive season kicked off in Newcastle this weekend.
Pre-season has offered us a great opportunity to settle back in,
welcome in some new faces, myself included, and sharpen our
rugby for the season ahead.
“It’s great to see a really strong mixture of continuity from
last season’s title win and some fresh faces through a few
academy boys and summer arrivals.
“Newcastle are a well-drilled team that are always tough to
overturn in the north.
“I’m personally really excited to get stuck into my first
Premiership game for Quins, too. It’s been a fantastic start for
me with the Club and I can’t wait to see the pre-season work
transfer onto the field through a truly talented playing group”

Decent team. Frustrating that Chisholm, Gray and Lewies are
injured again. Collier not making the squad is odd.
I wonder who covers 10?
Sort of a shame that Brown is not in their team, and to a lesser
extent Earle

Mike Brown out due to rib injury, no Earle either.
In mentions that Fin Baxter is on the bench but then doesn't
appear in the line up.

I guess they may be rotating the tighthead props a bit more
until we get Wilco back. Next week we may see Collier/Trenier
pair up.
As for 10 cover, Green is probably penciled in to move up into
10 if needed, Jones comes on, Marchant shifts to the wing, and
Lynagh to FB.

I'd assume it's Baxter and Marler has a late knock, but I guess
we will have to wait and see. But it's almost as probable that
he just rocked up at the final training session, told Tabai he
wanted a run out and went back to his meat festival.
I mean, you wouldn't say no, would you?
And it's pretty encouraging that I find myself pretty neutral on
seeing Baxter or Marler on the teamsheet. When we get to the
point where we have one starting and the other on the bench,
I'll be pretty excited.

It's Marler on the bench. They updated the page and I've updated
the first post.

I'm glad Brown is not playing against us, but not glad he has a
rib injury. Wish him a speedy recovery.
