Our new 10 looks excellent

Yes, although it shouldn't be a surprise. Allan has decent pedigree.

MOTM. Not a bad start!

Agree re Tommy, an excellent acquisition until we lose him and Marcus to international call ups! Incidentally Herron kicked Biarritz to victory over Racing yesterday. Just saying.

I don’t think Tommy will be involved with Italy these days. I think they’ve made the decision to move on to the next generation in that area.

He was very good today lovely break for the second try.

Makes you think who have been Quins back up fly half’s in the last 15 years and which one was the best/worst (I may forget some) not chronological just when they came into my head.

Adrian Jarvis
Chris Malone
Waisea Luveniyali
Ben Botica
Benjamin Urdapilleta
Demitri Catrakillis (probably starting fly half to be fair)
Brett Herron
Rory Clegg
Tim Swiel
Will Edwards
James Lang
Louis Grimoldby

Yes he comes above all of them
I still remember Malone missing a kick at home against Wasps about 20 metres out in front of the posts.
Less said about Botica and Foden the better.
Remember Cleggs kicking horror show away at Exeter in 2011/12 season.

Never really had a strong back up for Mehrtens, Evans and now Smith. Urdapiellta has made the most of his career and been a main stay in France.

Really pleased with what I've seen of Tommy Allan so far. If he keeps going the way he did today and has done in pre-season, he's going to push Marcus hard.

Jeremy Staunton. A back up or a starter ?
By the way, still queuing up in the Twin Farms to be served !
