Looks good - on paper, so they'll either get the match wrapped up or be torn to shreds.

I'll get my coat!

Definitely fancy us winning the battle in the front row. Should have them at scrum time and with that backs division I’m quietly confident ahead of this one...

[RagingBull]

That tight 5 should be a big target.

Very excited by that backs division and like the balance in the back row. Strong team

Yes, agree! Be particularly interesting to see how Kini goes at outside centre. (With Moroni apparently out injured, maybe for the year, we're going to need to look at alternatives). A strong-looking line up!

[OakhamTiger32]

Quite a few missing for Quins

Unavailable for selection:
Tyrone Green, Elia Elia

Unavailable due to injury:
Stephan Lewies, Craig Trenier, Joe Marler, Joe Gray, Michele Campagnaro, Cadan Murley, Paul Lasike, Matt Symons, Will Collier, Santiago Garcia Botta, Mike Brown, Chris Ashton, Scott Steele, Luke Northmore, Marcus Smith, James Chisholm, Scott Baldwin

Exactly! If Tigers can turn the screw and dominate then the game should be won!

I like the idea of Murimurivalu at 13 Nadolo and Van Wyk are both wingers who can read offloading lines.

It's the most excited i've been to see a team.
So we will lose by 20 points.

With that backline we best not kick too much!

We will win this one

Wow really like the look of that XV, I know Lavanini and Taufua are injured but for me this is the strongest team we’ve put out this season.

With Wallace and Reffell we’ll be definitely targeting the breakdown and shouldn’t get caught for mobility around the park. Whilst not rapid neither are slow, especially Wallace.

The backs speak for themselves, really excited to see them in action. Surely we must get a comfortable win against that Harlequins side.

[BigDan50]

Mainly Quins second choice players, with the side we have put out if we don’t win this game it will be very embarrassing.

[Wayne Richardson Fan Club]

The backrow battle will be good to watch but really our tight 5 should make it easier for ours to come out on top, looking forward to Reffell v Evans I was really disappointed when we let Evans go so be good to see a "live" comparison.

We should win & comfortably too, a good positive start with an outcome is required, the lack of points in our start against Irish made that a horror show in the end.
