Team v Toulouse
DIR By: never sleep
Date: May 3, 2024, 6:00 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Harlequins have named their matchday squad for Sunday’s Investec
Champions Cup semi-final against Toulouse (KO 15:00 BST, live on
TNT Sports / ITV 1).
Taking place at a sold-out Stadium de Toulouse, Sunday’s fixture
will be Harlequins’ first ever Investec Champions Cup
semi-final, following 2023/24 wins over Bordeaux Begles, Glasgow
Warriors, Ulster Rugby, Cardiff Rugby and Racing 92.
The matchday squad features just one change following the 41-32
win over Northampton Saints, with the experienced James Chisholm
returning from injury as an Impact Player.
Up front, Fin Baxter and Will Collier pack down alongside hooker
Jack Walker. Irne Herbst and Stephan Lewies maintain their
second-row partnership, with Chandler Cunningham-South and Will
Evans on the flanks. Alex Dombrandt continues at number eight.
In the backs, Danny Care and Marcus Smith form the halves
combination with Andre Esterhuizen and Luke Northmore in the
midfield. The back three partnership of Cadan Murley, Louis
Lynagh and Tyrone Green continues for the seventh consecutive
match.
Amongst the Impact Players, Sam Riley, Joe Marler and Simon
Kerrod add front-row experience, with George Hammond and James
Chisholm providing firepower in the pack. Will Porter and Jarrod
Evans cover the halves, with Oscar Beard adding versatility in
the backs.
Director of Rugby Billy Millard commented: “It’s been a special
build-up. The excitement and energy levels are high and we’re
looking forward to another great challenge on Sunday. We know
we’re up against a good opponent but we’re relishing the
opportunity, there’s no fear amongst our boys and we’re excited
to get across to Toulouse and challenge for the result.”
Should Harlequins progress to the Investec Champions Cup final,
the Club will update supporters following the match around a
small allocation of finalist club tickets in specific seating
blocks that will be made available in the middle of next week.
Tickets across other areas of the stadium are currently on
general sale via EPCR here. Please note that all tickets are
managed by EPCR and that supporters should contact EPCR rather
than the Club.

Pretty much the best we can put out (of course) and good to see
Chis back on the bench. Here's the opposition:

I guess you never know. To get this far is a good achievement in
itself, but I'm mostly hoping no one gets injured as injuries to
Marcus/Andre etc in particular would be a nightmare for the run
in
