Quins form is hardly the model of consistency. We ground out our win over Worcester last weekend, but our last two Premiership performances have been pretty poor.
The Saints vs. Gloucester game could be a good one, but I think Thorley, Woodward and Marshall are all out which might limit their attack a little.
It's an important weekend for Quins. If we lose we'll stay in fourth but Saints and Sale will be right on our heels. Our ideal scenario is to win with Saints beating Gloucester.
Well a win would put Quins back in 3rd and as the gap over Saints is 8 points at the moment, it'll either stay the same (or go down to 7 points depending on BPs) if we both win our games.
We play Saints next weekend, so winning that is the best way to widen that gap.
As it happens, I think the more likely reality is more likely 1 point for Quins tonight and 4 for Saints tomorrow which would cut the gap to 5 and make next week a nail-biter!
3rd and 4th are virtually the same thing .
Great by Dombrandt and fantastic try saver by De Klerk. I wish we had him at 9. Dombrandt worth a look at 8 for England?
He's a fantastic player and barring a serious injury or something he'll definitely play for England in the future. However it's too soon for a World Cup. Yes he's played very well, but it's only in the Premiership and it's a huge risk.
I haven't seen anything to suggest he could be worse than Hughes.
