Premiership Rugby 18/19 - Rd 15

This weekend's fixtures are very hard to call.

Bath at the Rec is significant for Quins. We're on a good run of form, but our last two wins have come against the teams in 10th and 11th at home. If we really want to show that we're legitimate play-off contenders, we need to show we can win on the road and beat the teams around us.

Same goes for Gloucester too TBH. Beating the top two in consecutive weeks is good going (albeit against heavily weakened sides), but winning against Bristol at Ashton Gate is far from a given.

The biggest game of the round is surely Newcastle vs. Worcester though. If Newcastle lose, I don't think they have enough time to pick up the wins they'll need to survive, particularly considering that I'd back Bristol to pick up at least a point tonight.

Is there anywhere to get an injury list and expected recovery date for premiership plays. Im just wondering when the likes of sam skinner and sam simmonds will be back for chiefs but cant find anything with an actual expected date or at least rough length of injury.

Bath do fairly regular updates nowadays but didn't used to. Verges clubs do.

Beno's back this week though!

I'd like to know too ... shamefully part of that is for my fantasy team.

Very pleased to see Obano and Willis back though,

Things not going well at the Rec.
Burns showing that FB is a specialist position; bad looking injury to Mulchrone

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Quins defence looking lots better than the last few weeks

 

[Every Time Ref]

Watching Leics-Wasps on BT. Cracking individual try from Marcus Watson punishing a crap kick chase

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Can we all appreciate that quins charity and kindness in continuing to pay Dave Lewis to play rugby despite that face that he is ****. Truly admirable...

 

[Which Tyler]

Way too easy.
Roberts rushing out of the line on his own, McConnochie almost covers for it, but not enough to stop the ball getting wide

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Way too easy

Fantastic offload

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

I forgot how idiotic the tigers crowd is.

Well your player gets kicked in the head by the opposition player the fans are going to make noise.
Still don't understand how it isn't reckless.

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Surely burns took marchant in the air there?
