The Premiership finally returns.
HTML https://www.quins.co.uk/article/team-news-internationals-return-for-bath-season-opener
Harlequins have named their first matchday 23 of the Gallagher
PREM season as they welcome Bath to The Stoop on Friday night
(19:45, live on TNT Sports).
The Quarters are set to open up their season in front of a
sold-out Twickenham Stoop as the reigning champions, Bath travel
to the capital for a mouthwatering round one match-up.
The hosts are boosted by the return of several international
players to the forwards, which includes Fin Baxter at loosehead,
Chandler Cunningham-South at lock and skipper Alex Dombrandt at
Number 8.
Elsewhere in the pack, Harry Williams is set for his Gallagher
PREM debut in the Quarters alongside summer signing Kieran
Treadwell in the engine room.
Will Porter returns to start at scrum-half alongside Jarrod
Evans at fly-half.
Sean Kerr is partnered with newly-capped England international,
Oscar Beard in the centres. Meanwhile, Cadan Murley returns to
the wing with Nick David and Tyrone Green complete the starting
XV at full-back.
Jason Gilmore has named largely youthful group of impact
players, which includes Zach Carr and Ludo Kolade who are set to
make their Gallagher PREM debuts on Friday night.
George Turner and Jordan Els provide experience at replacement
hooker and loosehead respectively, while Ollie Streeter, Jonny
Green, Max Green and Cameron Anderson are also named in the
matchday 23.
Senior Coach, Jason Gilmore said: �This fixture has given us a
jolt and a focus after a lot of change in recent weeks. We�ve
had a big game to prepare for, which has been the focus of the
group and we�re looking forward to getting out on the pitch in
front of a sold-out Stoop.
�It�s an important game to get our season started. I think if we
look back at the opening block of last season, we dropped a few
games in the final moments and that really hurt us in terms of
the league table come the backend of the season, so we know how
important it is to get off to a good start.�

Considering we could put out a pretty decent Injured Players XV
and we've got several international absences, that's not a bad
side, though the bench isn't great

I thought they had an immense injury list? Could be a long
evening...

No idea what Ojomoh is like at 10 but it's a strong Bath team in
the circumstances, and that bench is pretty scary. Just looking
at the teams on paper and you'd hope that we could get a strong
start but it's likely we'll get overhauled in the second half.
I will watch Harry Williams at scrum time through my fingers, I
expect.
Hopefully this is basically the team that's been training
together for a few weeks...!

12 tier 1 internationals in the starting XV? 3 more (including a
2021 Lion) on the bench &#128558;&#8205;&#128168;

I'd've thought that Redpath was more of the playmaker and
slotted in there

Surprised it�s not cleaves on the bench over Anderson as David
can cover 15

Comparison of the two benches? Simply worlds apart.
