Looks like Gengey picked up a calf injury and could miss England Summer Tour.
We do have options at loosehead.
Marler, Obano, Baxter, Rodd, Haffar, Ioygen, Brantingham...
Some are a bit on the youthful side but they'd do the job for the Japan test and as the third choice.
Genge is the best of them though.

The All Blacks props headed by De Groot and Lomax are excellent scrummagers, so if Genge not fit it may be both Quins looseheads touring

They are both absolutely massive. Going to be a tough job for anyone we send though they are tall so perhaps a shorter loosehead can cause some issues if they are strong technically.

Jonah Holmes and Dan Lancaster amongst the players being released by Ealing
23 in total leaving Ealing, which is pretty eye-catching.

Have they given up on this 'we want promotion' thing and are just going to be a normal Championship club.

Or are they just running out of money?

Dunno he's been playing Championship Rugby for the last two years. Could be he's got himself a deal back in the Prem now he's got his EQ status back.

I presumed he meant Harry Simmons and Josh Bassett.
