       Importantly we should get academy credits and will be EQP by the
       time he arrives if I’m correct?

       He can't be EQP as he's been capped by Ireland.
       Not sure if academy credits work if you leave and come back? Do
       we get them for Launchbury too? At this rate Tizzard will be
       re-joining next year!
       EDIT: Academy credits are only for players under 24 who joined
       the club before their 18th birthday. So no....

       Good signing - presumably he's coming home in part because he's
       out of favour with Ireland, which means we get an international
       level lock with a good few years left who knows Quins and will
       be available for the full season. What's not to like?

       Now we just need the rumours about Junior Kpoku to be true as
       well... then we are really set up in the lock department.

       In other news, Quirke is rumoured to be close to signing for
       Exeter. It never seemed likely he would sign for Quins, and with
       Porter locked in, Friday looking very promising and Care here
       for another year we seem to be well covered for scrum halves.

       Exeter going for it next year after 'taking this year off'.
       Chocobares of Toulouse close. Would have loved him here. But
       he's no Ben Waghorn..

       Ollie Lawrence announced as re-signed for Bath too. So which of
       the rumours about incoming centres will turn out to be true?

       The only source for that seems to be Fissler's article which is
       riddled with errors. It may be true that Raffi is off to Chiefs
       but Fissler's reasoning seems to be that Raffi is 3rd choice at
       Sale. 🤷

       No complaints about this one.
       Would happily take him and Kpoku if it meant losing Herbst
       Launchbury and Lewies.

       I just reeeally hope we're not losing Lamb to Zebre but it feels
       likely that will happen at some point...

       Steph signed a new contract so he'll stay. But agreed if we have
       Treadwell, Steph, Dino, Kpoku, Hammond, (Chisholm?) then that's
       fairly well set. Even if no Kpoku and we eek out another year
       from Launchbury/Herbst.
