Glad to see Bradley called up to the Welsh squad. Don't know if
he'll get a game, but it's a vote of confidence. Now, let's keep
hold of him.

Think they're getting smarter at capturing fringe prospects (see
they've got Kane James in that squad as well)
Obviously for us (on a selfish level) does mean that he's no
longer an EQP for next season, so that will be a factor in
renewals I would think
Certainly been decent for us and been blessed relief not having
to shove Northmore in at 12.

He’ll only be non-EQP if he gets a cap, obviously. But equally,
I don’t think he’s made any secret over the last couple of years
of wanting to play for Wales, so the club will have factored
that into their plans.

Tbh if international rugby is a genuine desire for Wales then we
know he eventually will be leaving us for a regions side so we
probably should plan accordingly for that now

I think that leaving Quins to go and play for a Welsh region
would be a very bold decision.
Considering that they are not exactly flush with money and are
talking about losing one region completely by 2027 with possibly
another one following.
It could be that a player signs up to one of the regions and
then gets laid off in the near future.

If he gets capped now, isn't their expectation youd need to
return to wales if you have less than 25 caps once your current
contract is up? I think it would be risky giving him a fairly
lengthy deal as out the two Waghorn I think has a higher ceiling

There is a loophole you can still be selected if you don’t
receive a “reasonable” offer.

He's been impressive in his games this season and it would be a
shame to lose him but if international honours are calling? I
can't say I'd blame him for leaving.
It would put our midfield in even more danger however...

Physically, he's about as close to Andre as we're likely to
find. He's nowhere near the skillset, but given an extended run
of games I think we'll see a lot more from him.
I hope we keep hold of him. With Waghorn they would cover the 12
shirt nicely and both give us some go forward.
