I'll be honest, I don't really know who those players are.
I did get excited when I saw "1 Lambert" though..

I know I'm far from the best person to ask but I've never heard
of any of them.

Having had a brief look, it seems the bulk are Super Rugby
players without really the international caps behind them hence
why we are probably none the wiser who they are.

Yeah, while the RWC is on, the BaaBaas are by definition going
to be less "star-studded" than usual. All the players we'd like
to see are either in France or injured. That said, fair play to
the BaaBaas to be doing a decent number of games for clubs in
the UK and Ireland recently.

I'd like to think that maybe the baabaas will reach out and use
some of Jersey's players and give them a chance to impress
against the next level. Wouldn't hurt to be in the shop window

Really doesn’t have any “ Sparkle” and really searching for a
name I know
Suspect that may well be the same for our team away at
Nottingham

Swinton, Wilson, Daugunu, Ikitau, Wright are all Aussie
internationals and, had Eddie not popped up as Head Coach over
there, may very well have been over in France. I was
particularly surprised Wright didn't go - he's far and away the
best Aussie FB option.

Alex Dombrandt charges forward against Saracens
Harlequins have named its matchday squad for Saturday’s
blockbuster friendly against the Barbarians at The Stoop (KO
14:15).
The 25-player squad features a combined 1,167 first-team
appearances, with Club Captain Stephan Lewies returning to lead
the side, and Welsh international Jarrod Evans named to make his
first Quins appearance.
In the forwards, Academy hooker Nathan Jibulu earns a start
alongside props Fix Baxter and Will Collier. Joe Launchbury
locks down with Stephan Lewies at second-row. Luke Wallace
returns at blindside, with Will Evans named at openside and Alex
Dombrandt at number eight.
In the backs, Will Porter makes his second appearance, joining
Jarrod Evans in the halves. Last week’s Player of the Match Luke
Northmore resumes at inside centre, with Will Joseph earning his
third consecutive start. The back three features a return for
Oscar Beard and Tyrone Green, with Nick David named at fullback.
Amongst the Impact Players, there’s returns for prop Lovejoy
Chawatama, scrum-half Max Green, and wing Cassius Cleaves.
Director of Rugby Billy Millard commented: “It’s always exciting
to face the Barbarians at home. Last year was a great occasion
and we’re looking forward to another good afternoon of rugby.
We’ve trained hard this week, and the squad are ready to put in
a strong performance. We were pleased with the win over Saracens
but there’s parts of our game that we need to improve.”

I've always rated that Fix Baxter. So do the crowd, as I've
heard them shout "Fix" even before he played for us.
