Baldwin, he'll be the hardest to replace when he's gone. Always 100%+,true professional even after his departure announcement, which reading between the lines was also due to Gustard mismanagement. Left to be closer to home, goes to Worcester, crow flies nearer, sort him accommodation West from Heathrow /Slough and he's quickly home. I really think we'll miss him more than any player departing this year, even MB! Not slagging Mike, but Green/Lynagh are better replacements than our possible additions at no.2!

'Evans above!
-
Landajo gets it for me
-
Paul Gustard as his action in leaving, turned our form and season around completely. :-)
As a fully paid up member of the front row Union, it's Joe for me. His leadership on the field has been immense and his form is outstanding.
Could live with it being wEV or Marcus or Dommers or DC or Mike or Balders as well though. They've all been magnificent.
-
Whoever removed Gustard gets my vote.......
seriously though, can’t really look beyond Marcus with honourable mentions to Joe, Will and Danny
-
We’ve got two players who are way out in front in their respective categories. Marcus is so far ahead as the leading points scorer in the league that the difference between his total and MacGinty’s would be a top 10 points scorer in its own right. And Evans is so far ahead in turnovers that he will probably still top the table despite missing a quarter of the season to injury.
It’s hard to choose between them, but I think I’d go for WEv. We already knew what Marcus was capable of, but Will has been a revelation this season.
Honourable mentions to Care, Dombrandt, Louw, Baldwin, Green, Brown and Lewies. Marler is in an odd way the unsung hero of the season - it’s been one in which he’s made few headlines but has clearly been enjoying his rugby and it’s translated into a real impact on the pitch.
Breakthrough player of the year would have Northmore, Lynagh, Tizard and Green as contenders, but I think Kenningham takes it. He’s had relatively few games, but the way he’s stepped up to fill WEv’s boots, and the speed with which he’s adapted to the senior game haves been remarkable.
Of course, all of this is if we restrict ourselves to the men’s game. If we look across the whole club, my vote would go to Shaunagh Brown.

I’m not sure you can look much further than Marcus, he’s been best player in the league by a country mile. Although the other 14/13 have been vital his direction from 10 have ensured we’ve won games we might not have.
Strong case for Wev too though.
Echo that
-
Will Evans. You can't win without the ball - Evans gets us the ball.
-
Marler has been the catalyst for me, when he is smiling the Quins world seems be ok!
But Evans was playing well pre PG leaving......
-
Smith by far for me.
Won us games singlehandedly several times, top points scorer in the league by 80 points, plus the fact he plays 80 minutes basically every week because we have no able replacement.
He’d be on for winning Prem player of the year if it wasn’t for Simmonds breaking the try record.
DC and Wev have been outstanding and thrown their hat in the ring too, but Smith is just the complete player.
-
With 2, possibly even 3 games to go, might just be worth waiting
I’d also be looking at Louw and Symo who have both been imense
But it’s hard to look parts Marcus at the moment, we are a different team when he isn’t playing
-
DC for me.
He seems to have sprung a new lease of life since
Gussie left. His work rate is on form and he seems to
read the games so well.
Tough call but Evans a close 2nd :-)
-
Will Evans for me. I know Marcus has pulled the strings, and without him we wouldn't be where we are, but when you think about where Evans has come from and those stats he has, for a guy playing in his position, I can't think of a player who I want to see more in a Quins shirt right now. He just makes stuff happen, always gives 100% and can lift the team with one of those amazing turnovers.
-
WEv is a great shout, he would thoroughly deserve it.
Marler has led us to being the best scrum in the league.
Marcus has ignited our fantastic attack, as has Danny.
Andre has been sensational. Shame he has missed a few games, especially recently (seeing what others are getting away with, I am ever more bitter about his red against Irish!)
Given the choice, I would go for Marcus. He has been excellent and inspirational. He has played for the team but has won games on his own.
Yep. This captures my thoughts pretty much exactly.
When I think about what Biggar and Hepetema have got away with in the last 2 rounds, Andre’s red now looks outrageously harsh.
-
Mike Brown.
-
Another vote for Evans. For me he edges it over Smith.
In the honourable mentions I'd add Wilco as well. Our scrum is now one of the most effective in the league and he has to be the biggest difference since last season. He also does his fair share around the field.

Evans so far.... but let's see.
Baldwin and Northmore have both been very consistent and would make the shortlist for me ahead of Lewies and Andre.
Andre has been awesome at times, but just missed too many games with his reds.
-
Evans for me too
-
Hi,
As we approach the end of the regular season. I was think who would be my player of the season.
Honourable mentions:
M Smith
S Lewies
J Marler
D Care
Andre
but my player of the season would be
Will Evans
We are a much better team with him in the side and his turnovers have been the start of so many tries this year
What do you think
Regards
