Personally I feel this would be a good game for Wallace to start.
V his old club at the Stoop
Against his replacement.

Re: Away vs Quins Sat 13th Feb
If Leicester City can go nine away games without losing , why can' t we? Perhaps we should invite Brendan Rogers to pass on his philosophy to the players and staff.Goodevibrations wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 8:39 pm This will be a real indication as to where we are. We haven't won an away game in the league for a very long time and psychologically it would be huge if we could get a win here.

LCFC home record not so good though. Don't want to emulate that.Dangerous4 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 2:29 pmIf Leicester City can go nine away games without losing , why can' t we?

Nadolo definitely out - looked nasty....
Dont think the team will change much - interesting the threat that Will Evans offers over the ball, much like Kvesic. Think the back row will, fitness depending, be the same. Maybe the locks will switch up again? Martin must be near a start too....

Yes, Nadolo has just put on his Instagram story a video of him on a watt bike with the hashtag ‘Rehab’ so looks like he may be out for this weekBunchy wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 8:22 am Nadolo definitely out - looked nasty....

Hearing it's a strain as opposed to anything nastier - but expect a few weeks out still - although nothing will be confirmed by the club !!
chance for others to come in such as Murimurivalu

I am looking for consistency in performance as the team gain experience in playing together (which is still limited). As said many times it is a journey but for now the direction seems to be positive. We do have good options in most positions which we couldn't have said 12 months ago.
This game is winnable but it will not be easy. I look forward to some good entertaining rugby

Re: Away vs Quins Sat 13th Feb
Quite upbeat this week and think we have a chance. Though I also think Quins are a good team.
It’s a real sign of where we have come when losing a top player like Nadolo means you have someone like Kiri quite literally waiting in the wings (or Centre, full back). Nadolo understandably has the star reputation, but Kiri is the sort of international quality utility back player that quietly becomes a fans favourite.
Talking about star quality, as another cause for optimism, also just seen the stats for Jasper Weise and Freddie Steward on the Opta Rugby Rankings for the Premiership this week - WOW!!! Jasper is 1st position for carries, second for defenders beaten, third for metres, and just makes the top 25 for tackles.
Freddie Steward also features in the top 25s for carries (12th), metres (9th) and defenders beaten (12th). Hanford is also 3rd for line out wins (Calum is 13th) and 21st for carries.
My only worry is when I’m this optimistic they normally get hammered......
