Rodrigo Isgro in action for Harlequins
Harlequins have made four changes to their starting XV to take
on Gloucester at Allianz Stadium on Saturday (17:30).

since Round 13 of the Gallagher Premiership as the Quarters gear

In the pack, Will Evans is named in the back row in place of
Chandler Cunningham-South who misses out after picking up a calf
strain in the week.
Will Porter returns to the side at scrum-half to partner the
recently named British & Irish Lion, Marcus Smith, in the
half-backs.
Ben Waghorn is also named at inside centre for the Round 16
clash against the Cherry and Whites.
Danny Wilson has opted for the five-three split amongst his
impact players with Academy Graduate Tighthead, Ollie Streeter
in-line to make his First Team debut.

George Skivington has made just one change to the Cherry &
Whites match day squad that defeated Exeter Chiefs 79-17 at
Kingsholm Stadium in Round 15, ahead of their Big Summer Kick
Off fixture against Harlequins at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham,
tomorrow afternoon.
In an unchanged starting XV, Val Rapava Ruskin overcomes a knock
sustained early in the Exeter fixture to join Seb Blake and Afo
Fasogbon in the front row once more.
Arthur Clark and Freddie Thomas continue their partnership in
the second row, with Jack Clement, Lewis Ludlow and Ruan
Ackermann combining behind them.
After being announced as a Lions tourist for their summer trip
to Australia later this year, Tomos Williams starts again at
scrum-half, with his countryman, Gareth Anscombe, outside him.
Seb Atkinson and Chris Harris line up together in the midfield,
with a back three of Jake Morris, Christian Wade and Santi
Carreras.
On the bench, Ciaran Knight replaces Jamal Ford-Robinson in the
sole change to the 23, with the Gloucester native set to make
his 99th Club appearance.
Jack Singleton, Kirill Gotovtsev, Cam Jordan, Freddie Clarke,
Caolan Englefield, Charlie Atkinson and Jack Cotgreave join
Knight as the replacements.

Got to be close to a first choice XV there. Only bone of
contention would be second row where there is not much between
all of them given rates of injury etc.
Bench is weak though so might need an early lead and then try
and hold on.

Strong starting XV as we've said before. Still not optimistic.
Interesting the Welsh props aren't included but aren't on the
unavailable list. Ridiculous number of injuries we've had to
contend with this year.

Feels a more balanced side than in recent weeks but we are
rubbish at hanging on to anything, so hope we just keep pushing
all game. Only playing for pride so be proud for the next 3
games and sneak into 6th

Reassuring the Northmore at 12 experiment has been binned. Not a
bad side but neither is the oppo, who arguably have a lot more
confidence as a playing unit currently. As ever the scrum will
be a key factor as both backs will be a threat if they get a
good platform

Massive step up for Streeter but if he's the only TH we have
available, then go well young man. Hopefully Farley's Rusc has
gone off by then

And our good friend, Mr Wilson, keeps telling us that we take a
lot of learnings from the defeats. So let's see if we've learnt
not to kick loosely, in front of their back 3!!!
