Harlequins have named their matchday squad for Sunday�s
Gallagher Premiership fixture against Sale Sharks at the Salford
Community Stadium (KO 15:00 � Live on TNT Sports).
The squad is bolstered by the return of experienced duo Joe
Marler (279 caps) and Danny Care (371 caps), with prop Simon
Kerrod in line for his 100th appearance and Academy graduate Sam
Riley selected for his 50th cap.
Up front, Joe Marler returns at loosehead to partner Sam Riley
and Dillon Lewis. Irne Herbst and skipper Stephan Lewies
maintain their second-row combination, with Chandler
Cunningham-South and Will Evans on the flanks. Alex Dombrandt
resumes at number eight.
In the backs, Will Porter and Marcus Smith continue their halves
partnership, with Andre Esterhuizen and Oscar Beard in the
centres. Louis Lynagh and Cadan Murley start on the wings with
last week�s Player of the Match Tyrone Green at fullback.
Amongst the Impact Players, there�s a strong mix of talent and
experience with Jack Walker, Fin Baxter and Simon Kerrod
covering the front-row. George Hammond and Tom Lawday bolster
the pack, with Danny Care returning to join fly-half Jarrod
Evans and centre Luke Northmore.
Director of Rugby Billy Millard commented: �We�re excited to get
up to Manchester. It�s been another good week and we�re looking
forward to the challenge on Sunday. We know Sale are a good
side, they�re always tough at home, and we�re expecting another
great battle with Premiership points up for grabs.�

Enjoy the game all and safe travels to anyone making the trip.
But I really hope there is some redemption for Sale

Eek, not good to see Collier on the "not available for
selection" list. I hope Bomb has spent the entire week drilling
Dillon to within an inch of his life - if anyone can coach him
to scrummage, it's Jones.
I will say quietly though... That's probably one of the least
scary oppo 23s I've seen for a while. No disrespect meant -
feels like a few Prem clubs are going through, or about to go
through, transition phases at the moment and Sale are one of
them.

Looks good to me - I'm not particularly confident of a Quins
win.

Can't argue with team selection based on availability.
Rotating Marler and Baxter seems sensible.
Does feel like Sale have dropped off ever so slightly from last
seasons form but they're still a very capable and dangerous
side. Roebuck has been on fire of late.
Really need at least 4 points from this one to stay in the top
four race.

That�s a very good Sale team and we are weakened without
Collier.
It will be a tough game and I think judging my form of teams
around us, is make or break for top 4. If we finally stop
conceding 30-40+ and approach it like the Bordeaux game
mentality, who knows.
Pleased for Riley

Wouldn't have said it's a weak sale team.
I worry for this game. Quins can pull of great wins like last
weekend but then often fail to follow them up. I hope someone
the management are able to get the players' mindset right

Yup, this is a tricky one. Bristol have picked up after a barren
patch and you'd expect them to win at home to Newcastle. So, 5th
after Sunday if we lose.
