No we don’t. Wasps, Irish, Tigers and Wuss are all worse than Quins.

Sorry - just re-read   I was looking at points difference.

Feels like he's bought a rag-tag bunch of players, and so far no-one has really stood out, and lots look mediocre.
Lewies has shown his worth so far, I think. Tex has looked good but not had much game time. Lawday ? Consistently very good. Evans has played well.

Agree about Lawday & Lewies. They’ve got better & better. Evans was looking good too.

I think you'll find there was a bad word in the thread title that got changed (so all rubbish postings didn't continue to use it).

Oi, my posting wasn't rubbish!

(Well it probably was. Thanks for the explanation).

4) Quins need to get a grip – and fast
Paul Gustard’s arrival at Harlequins last season was meant to sort out their defence but the six-try thrashing at Sale took them to 12 conceded in the last three matches with strugglers Wasps and Leicester the first two opponents. Quins were narrow in Salford and bypassed all too often. The experience of Mike Brown is being missed at full-back and Sale have one of the strongest squads in the Premiership. Quins have a core of hardened international experience yet they have conceded at least 30 points in five league and Champions Cup matches this season. “We were not good enough and got beaten up,” said their director of rugby, Gustard, who took aim at his England prop Joe Marler for a loss of discipline at the start of the second half that cost him 10 minutes in the sin-bin. “It was ridiculous,” said Gustard about the prop putting his forearm in the face of an opponent. “There was no need for it.” It is not just Marler who needs to get a grip.
