Harlequins have named their matchday squad for Saturday’s Gallagher Premiership clash with Bath Rugby at a sold-out Stoop (KO 15:05 – live on TNT Sports).

The forward pack features a reshuffled front-row with props Fin Baxter and Dillon Lewis starting alongside hooker Jack Walker. Joe Launchbury and George Hammond maintain their second-row partnership, with Stephan Lewies and Will Evans on the flanks. Alex Dombrandt resumes at number eight.

Danny Care and Marcus Smith maintain their halves combo, with Andre Esterhuizen and Oscar Beard in the centres. Tyrone Green continues at fullback with Cadan Murley and Louis Lynagh named on the wings.

The Impact Players features the experienced duo of Joe Marler and Will Collier, with centre Lennox Anyanwu and Cameron Anderson returning to the matchday 23.

Director of Rugby Billy Millard commented: "We're excited for Saturday and another great challenge against Bath. The boys have worked hard this week and driven the energy and focus. We're expecting a good response on Saturday in front of another big home crowd."

I suspect the chat from the coaches is you let the club down last weekend, now go out and fix it.

I'd liked to have seen Lawday at 6. Not sure why he's out in the cold. Lewies just doesn't look mobile enough these days to be at blindside.

That is a ridiculously strong Bath side. I fear a repeat of Saracens.

As Private Frazer says in Dads Army.. “We’re DOOMED!”.

Lewies starting is an utter joke in itself.

Great Bath side,

Quins 19 Bath 36

 I fully expected Northmore to be involved in the 23 and what's happened to Will Joseph ?

I wonder if some players resent the way Lewies gets a start with no justification on form since we won the league. Quite how walker still starts is also beyond me

 Yep, agree - we're gonna get Mullered. Splatted. Creamed. Handed our botties. Walloped. Fumped. Clobbered..

Can’t believe sick note is getting a start would have preferred Lawday
That being said probably the strongest we could muster, but cant see us getting a win.
Let’s just hope it’s not a whitewash

Not saying we won’t get a pasting but that Bath side isn’t anywhere near as good on paper as Sarries.

Spencer, Russell and Lawrence are the only players who’d make a Sarries starting 15.
