Harlequins have named their matchday squad for Saturday’s
Gallagher Premiership clash with Newcastle Falcons at a sold-out
Twickenham Stoop (KO 15:00).
The Starting XV features five changes following the defeat to
Sale Sharks, with Nathan Jibulu, Joe Launchbury, Chandler
Cunningham-South and Marcus Smith returning to the starting
side. Academy product Cassius Cleaves earns his first
Premiership start on the left wing, with Stephan Lewies
captaining the squad in the absence of Alex Dombrandt.
In the forwards, props Fin Baxter and Titi Lamositele start
alongside hooker Nathan Jibulu. Joe Launchbury and Stephan
Lewies combine at second-row, with Jack Kenningham and Will
Evans on the flanks. Chandler Cunningham-South completes the
pack at number eight.
In the backs, Will Porter and Marcus Smith reignite their halves
pairing, with Lennox Anyanwu and Luke Northmore at centre.
Cassius Cleaves and Nick David start on the wings, with
sharpshooter Leigh Halfpenny at fullback.
The Impact Players feature the traditional five-three split,
with new recruit Wyn Jones named for his competitive Quins
debut, joining front-row replacements Jack Walker and Simon
Kerrod. Irne Herbst and Dino Lamb provide cover at lock and
back-row, with Danny Care, Jarrod Evans and Oscar Beard the
impact backs.
Head Coach Danny Wilson commented: “We’re excited to be back
home at The Stoop. It’s a special place for our players and we
love performing in front of a packed stadium. The squad have
worked hard this week, they’ve driven our standards in training
and we’re looking forward to the challenge that Newcastle will
bring.”

Like the look of that team and really pleased for Jibulu. I also
hope Cleeves takes his chance and shows what he can do.
The biggest news is I will be in attendance and will be in the
Webb Ellis from midday, wearing a classic quins shirt with 12 on
the back, just in case I’m needed to come on.

I actually quite like the look of that side, very well balanced
and some good options off the bench

Well, the team announcement is small beer compared to this news.
And bringing the decent weather with you as well. A thoroughly
decent bloke 😁

Interesting to see Connor Doch at 13. He's on loan from us to
Falcons but I'm sure he's normally a banger 12.

Arnold is pretty beastly so it's a very physical midfield
pairing. Should be an excellent test.

I’ll give it a go. I’m 35, last played rugby 13 years ago, and
only played in the forwards, but I’m confident I’d have more of
an impact than Paul Sackey.
Sadly, I would have consumed about 8 double bells prior to kick
off so I might only get 2 tries instead of the standard hat
trick I’d expect, complete with 50 yard drop goal from the most
acute angle you can get
