       To pass the time

       A bit of fun while the games are thinner on the ground.
       The rugby genie has granted you access to every Prem squad for
       2026/27. Magically, you must bolster Quins’ XV with one player
       from each squad.
       You also get Bath’s accountant/Head of Recruitment so there’s no
       salary cap issues. And the EQP requirements are revoked.
       What’s your new Quins XV?
       For Sale I’m thinking:
       1. Genge
       2. LCD
       3. Stuart
       4. Chessum
       5. Bamber
       6. Tom
       7. Morgan
       8. Sotutu
       9. Williams
       10. Ford
       11. IFW
       12. Hutchinson
       13. Marchant
       14. Roebuck
       15. Furbank

       As you've included next seasons signings, I'll do the same ;-)
       So my team would be:
       1. Baxter
       2. McGuigan
       3. Du Toit
       4. Chessum
       5. Clark
       6. Fisilau
       7. T. Curry
       8. Dombrandt
       9. Friday
       10. M. Smith
       11. Elliott
       12. Ravouvou
       13. Litchfield
       14. Murley
       15. Furbank

       Difficult. You obviously wouldn't want to disrupt the squad too
       much, keep with the current direction, and have them play "the
       Quins way", but I simply don't know which players from each
       squad are the worst tacklers or who only fancy it
       occasionally... ;-)
       Oghre, Stuart, Coles, Wand, Caluori (or Radwan) would be my
       first choices I think. Not sure what that leaves me in terms of
       available 12s who'd be a good fit.

       1 Baxter
       2 Lake
       3 Heyes
       4 Cunningham-South
       5 Van der Mescht
       6 Hooper
       7 Underhill
       8 Dombrandt
       9 Williams
       10 Smith
       11 Fineanganofo
       12 Janse van Rensburg
       13 Marchant
       14 Murley
       15 Furbank
       Think I've managed to use every team... and got this out before
       Fineanganofo officially tears up his contract and stays in NZ!

       12 was my issue. Basically I was trying to find a big bopper
       with hands. At one point I had Atkinson in with F Smith at 10
       which meant playing double Curry or Lawes and Tom.

       Atkinson is a good shout actually, can't believe I forgot him.

       So that's covered Bristol, Bath, Saints, Tigers, Sarries (can't
       have Radwan and Wand, I'm afraid). You still need a player from
       Red Bulls, us, Chiefs and Gloucester

       No I don't. RULES AS WRITTEN are: you can bolster Quins’ XV with
       one player from each squad. Take it up with the guy who set the
       challenge! :-)
