Nice analysis. England look so stocked at 9 for international
honours, he's going to have to stand out every week but I'm
happy he knuckles down with Quins for the next 2 years and
doesn't worry about the 2027 World Cup.

It’s a question of how fast he learns. Mitchell is inked in, but
there’s a gap from him to the chasing pack that Friday could
easily grow to fill. I would hope he would start getting called
up to training camps before too long.

Been really impressed with the pace het gets to the ruck and
gets the ball away. Should be our starter for me.

I'm okay with him not being called up for England for a couple
of years. He's very good, but he's also very new at this level.
Let him learn his trade, get another U20s campaign, some England
A appearances, then see how he's progressed.

He looks the real deal. He's delivering quick ball but also
looks tactically astute. An old head on young shoulders.
It's important not to overload him though. He's still young and
not long back from a serious injury.
I expect he and Porter will share the 9 shirt this season and a
good chunk of next before he emerges as outright first-choice
and starts every game.

Encouraging to see so many Quins in the forwards

"Boy" Friday
I think he is the real deal, and could have got man of the match
last couple of games.
Exciting to have him paired up with Marcus
