I saw Dommers yesterday. He walked up the stairs in the West
Stand and went into the DHL box. Is he injured?

I actually think he's a better captain than Alex in all honesty.
Stephan does lead by example and rarely has "bad" games and is a
handy line out option too

Lewies is a very good player and a good leader. However, his
injury record means he doesn't get a consistent run in the team.
For me the problem isn't so much him being unavailable, more
that when he is fit he seems to be first choice. The effect is
that whoever else had the shirt is dropped, meaning inconsistent
pairings and possibly a demotivated player, knowing he's only
been keeping a shirt warm.
Agreed re Launchbury though. We knew he wouldn't be the player
of his peak, but he just doesn't seem to offer much.
Petti, on the other hand, has been an absolute star and should
be first pick at lock.

Agree with all you say, the frightening thing (for selection) is
that Petti has also played at 6 for the Pumas to good effect.
The Quins back 5 could be so mobile, could Guido and CCS form
the second row? Might be interesting...
