Pls next time place your posts in the right place
No this is a league matchday thread ,We are back means we are back as a whole,meaning the league is back. Any match posts can be posted on here,we have a separate thread just for our game if others would prefer to post there 👍

That’s just plain weird. Judge every situation on its merit.

This is actually better than I thought. Both Chiefs and Glaws forums mentioning decisions going our way and being lucky. Now I know we’re on our way back ! Just need an early “same old leicester ….” from the shed on Friday ! Happy days !

Newcastle been pretty unlucky with some of these decisions so far. Not sure how they didn’t get something from that disallowed try for Quins sacking it on the line :smt017

Reckon Newcastle are going to have a good season this year, really surprised to see so many in the media predict them to finish in the bottom couple

I think they’re benefiting from Quins style of play. Against teams who play less expansively, they might struggle for the possession to bring Radwan into the game too much. I think they’ll finish above Gloucester but in the bottom 4 with Worcester and Irish.

Agreed. But how fast are their 2 wingers! Really exciting to watch

One aspect of our massive improvement is ----how much better would we be with a player of Radwans' pace ??

While we are well stocked for quality on the wings now I completely agree.. both Falcons wingers today were rapid and Quins have some really quick players too.. we seem to be going down a different route but a Radwan-esq winger would certainly be useful!
