Congrats. You inadvertently came up with the name for the dressing room bear.

I think this is a squad rotation, and also picking players based on what they offer. Walker's selection suggests they are hoping to get a lot of ball out to the wing; the back row selection may be because they want mobility more than physicality; the bench will certainly allow for some beef against what should be a tired opposition.

The Saints back row looks pretty useful. Harrison is a very good player, Haskell still puts himself about, and Brussow is one hell of a player.

I hope the team can show that Saturday wasn't a flash in the pan.

This will be an interesting game. Not sure what to make of the Saints team and am expecting a strong reaction to their opening defeat. They, and us, with the changes that have gone on, will be two of the more unpredictable teams in the league this year I expect. Will be intriguing to see how Quins set their stall out and react during the game.

I can’t fail to be optimistic though - that’s just the mood right now. Nice to have some of the old excitement back. It has felt like it’s been a few years.

Predicting a tight one tonight, interesting reading on the Saints board under their predictions with some going for a Saints win by 25+.

Can't see a score line like that exnq. But I'm not thinking it's going to be a walk in the park.
I'll definitely be watching though. Early dinner with the kids and then in front of the TV with a beer to watch the rugby!

I've predicted a Quins win by a handful of points. I think the bump of a thumping win last w/e, Saints loss, along with the bounce of being Gustard's forst away trip I think will just edge it for us...

Yes, I am also excited about what could happen tonight. The effort, energy and skill were great on Saturday. I hope the squad can replicate it and build on it tonight!

The team changes are intriguing but, like others, I see it as Gustard really considering the man for the job, given their skill and their form as well as their ability to handle the opposition.

Morris, Walker and Earle is an exciting and pacy back division. They could find some huge holes.

Come on you Quins!

LATE CHANGE

Lambert is starting, with Auterac on the bench. No reason given.

Shame no Marler tonight. But it will be interesting to see Auterac in action.
