With Mike Brown, Marlon Yarde and this Figiian flyer, this is quite a frightening back three for Quins. Add Ugo Monye, Walker, and Williams as back up, and they seem to have an embarrassment of riches.
It's going to be an interesting season.

Re: Quins back three
Sounds like Ugo Hamstring is getting the better of him. Shame on his day a very powerful runner.
Also seems like Quins fans prefer former Tigers product charlie Walker as the other winger to Yarde with the Fijian flyer playing 13 ala Goneva.

Re: Quins back three
I'd have thought the new Fijian will play at 13 where he is equally comfortable as Quins have Lowe on the long term injury list (again, he seems chronically unlucky) and Hopper who has flashes of excellence but tends to be found out against high level opposition.

Re: Quins back three
I'd actually have Benjamin in the team before Scully (assuming fit) and then we have Scully, Camacho, Morris and Thomson as cover - so not too bad ourselves.amazing tiger wrote:what a back three but then if you look at ours its not that bad with scully goneva and tait. nice to see what marlande yarde can do in a decent team

Re: Quins back three
I have watched every single Chiefs game this season, and can say that Tikoirotuma is a lot better on the wing than he is at 13. Him and Nanai-Williams are a sight to behold when they have Cruden at 10.

Re: Quins back three
I might sneak a few quid on Quins at the start of the season. To add to the current bunch apparently they have some exceptional youngsters on the way...
Re: Quins back three
I'd actually like to see Goneva, Loamanu and Benjamin (on form) for us next season. Maybe not the first choice (it would be harsh on Tait) but it would be interesting.
Interesting would also be:
15. Loamanu
14. Goneva
13. Manu
12. Bai
11. Benjamin
10. Williams / Burns
No lack of size or speed there. With that backline, I would not worry about the Hairyqueens. I am definitely not saying I would pick that team as the first (Allen and Tait would be my first choice), but it would be interesting size-wise!
I'm quite excited about next season!
