Gustard's interview just said that every fit back available was playing, yet Goneva didn't play and is not listed as unavailable.  What gives?
Goneva is listed as injured on the team announcement e mail, not sure how much difference he would have made?

Chisholm is not captaincy material, and frankly hes starting to fall into the bog standard squad filler category.

Only slight positive is we scrummed well overall.

You can see why Smith is no where near the England set up, as his game management and kicking in the conditions were poor.

As I’ve constantly said Ross Chisholm is neither good at being a winger or a fullback. We collect too many jack of all trades master of naff all type players.

Agree with everything. Without wishing to be pessimistic I thought the worse when the team came out yesterday. I just hope it was a team that we had to play as that’s all we had available rather than a Gustard “rotation for rotations sake” outfit.
Although Danny Care on the bench makes me think otherwise.
Shambolic afternoon. Very disappointed, especially with a chance to make serious places up the table. Usual 1 step forward 7 steps back

I know you love to have a downer on Quins, but that's ridiculous even by your standards. James Chisholm a "bog standard squad filler category"? Have you been drinking?

Chisholm J was only one of the players who looked good today, The rest were bloody useless.

Comments like he's a "bog standard squad filler category" are just pathetic. They show an inherent lack of appreciation of good rugby players.

Don’t think I’d use the term disgrace, if anyone watched Irish beat Saints in the last round, it was obvious it would be a very hard game
Lest be honest our last two wins where against much weaker sides and you could have predicted the wins in prem cup.
Our side is decimated at the moment, with players out of position etc, OK that’s no excuse, but Irish where the better team, and looked far more up for it than we did
So our last 4 games against Irish we have won 1 game
And this season we have only won 4 games out of 10 in the premiership, managed to scrape a draw against a team that could be described at the worst in the premiership, didn’t get out of the pool in Europe, it wasn’t a disgrace it was sadly to be expected.

I honestly think the best we will achieve this season is making the Premiership cup final and can’t see us winning that away to Sale.

Well it's the morning after, what is done is done and we go again.

This season is shaping up to be a great one towards the end of the season with the top four being so close.

Quin's might not be there, or we might but I'm looking forward to the warmer dryer months when I can sit in the sun with a cold beer, good friends and watch the Quins.

Peace to all in quinsland! COYQ!

Looking far more up for it is fair. Completely unacceptable state of affairs though. If you can’t raise your game against a local rival when can you?

We’re decimated by injury for the 7th time in 8 seasons. I’d love to know why we have these annual injury crises.

There’s talent in this squad and ability to get results. It’s just that only exists in certain players and the drop off between those that can and those that can’t seems substantial. Yesterday we were as much architects of our own downfall than anything else.

I've had the chance to calm down and I would still describe it as a disgrace. Weak, pathetic nonsense is what it was. I won't mention any names but I'd be happy for some players to leave the club immediately.

Leave the club immediately, you’d be happy with that, really?
We don’t have enough players available as it is, how would getting rid of any players at this stage help the current situation ?

Yes, I've had enough of players being so poor at their jobs. Let someone else waste their money on them.

I’m sure our performance will improve with a starting 13

But seriously QP who are the players you want gone now ?

As I said, i don't want to name names, but it's pretty obvious which ones, and it's embarrassing for them that they are senior players.
