No surprise really, none of them would have broken a sweat on Saturday so they'll all be pretty fresh

ET TU BRUTE

According to teletext, Catalans are missing Mogg, replaced by Stacul.
Mogg always looks very important to their game but they didn't miss him much in the second half against Bradford.

Clubb to miss out as he needs to sort out that tackling. Suggest Wells on wing to shore up the right flank which has been exposed too often this year. Perhaps Mbu will also miss out.

Williamson and Robinson need to step up a gear. Need them to stand out more.

Looks like Alibert is the ref again - is that 4 or 3 times so far in 7 games?

we really need to get a cockney ref on the roster. I can't see why we get a frog for the game against the frogs?

I can't see why you are complaining. Alibert's been very good in the games we've had with him. He was also rather generous as a video ref to Bradford on sunday IMO.

And they feel chuffed because normally they get a limey to ref theirs? and we think other clubs have chips on shoulders, your the full f***ing MCcain box mate.

MCain.........friggin cheek! Picked, washed, peeled, blanched and fried in extra virgin oil sunshine

Maybe this is a game where Mac could be tempted to rest some one like Clubb. He could maybe have a word about the ways hes be going at it in the tackle (or lack of tackles according to some here). but in IMO it wont hurt to rest him as its his first full season in the forwards and also hes filled in on the Wing when we picked up injuries.

I would still play Robinson/Williamson in the 2nd row, as these two have got to get use to playing together,and in Williamsons case need to get up to match fittest. As for Robinson,do feel he was playing a couple games carrying some sort of injury before.

We need big forwards for this game,so need Haggerty back for this one.

So i would rest Clubb and have to say maybe Mbu,then bring in these two for Celtic game and rest two others in that game, say Golden and Temata (who to me having his best season).

Then again and heres where im going to get shot at

. Take a big chance in the Celtic game and rest more then two and give guys like Gale, Kaye, Gardner, Grayhson and dare i say it Nanyn a run out,and before you jump all over me i dont mean the whole lot

.

Gale would do a great job if rested Orr, who i think Mac said had been carrying a neck injury. Randall rates Kaye so why not have him off the Bench to rest Randall in Celtic game. and as for the others take your pick

Thanks for that. A bus load to wales to watch the reserves...that will really catch on


Play your best team every game and underestimate your opposition at your peril!

Doesn't look anything like the squad on Superleague site.

Clubb, Dorn, Gardner, Golden, Haggerty, Heckenberg, Howell, Mbu, McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Melling, Gale, Purdham, Randall, Kaye, Sharp, Temata, Nanyn, Ward, Williamson.

Two games over Easter is a tough call, therefore a sensible coach we will have a bigger pool of players to deal with injuries and fatigue. I would have Gale, Kaye, Mbu, O'Callaghan, Grayshon and dare I say Nanyn on stand-by to cover. The best team has to be the fittest and two games in five days will test the best. Though I can remember Salford playing three games in four days in the seventies!

Then they have this under the above team

Harlequins RL coach Brian McDermott keeps faith with the 19-man squad on duty for the Carnegie Challenge Cup tie with Huddersfield Giants, with forwards Gareth Haggerty and Joe Mbu hoping to force their way in the team after being omitted for the 42-16 defeat.

Well if the SL site and our site showing two diffrent teams for Thurs night, then guess we going to have to turn up and see whos playing then wont we

. either way TBH they both look a good 19.

Gale in for Orr i would be happy with that, as been surprised at how well this kid has took to SL in his first Season.

And Sorry GF, didnt wish any harm after all the hard work you have put into getting a coach and supporters to go to Wales.

I was just looking at rotaing Squad to get the Max points over Easter period, esp against HullKR at home, where we all know we got to have our best 17

The whole point of a SL squad is that you play your best FIT 17 every week and have replacements who are good enough to fill gaps. What you don't do is start second guessing teams.
Big Mac will only be interested in Thursdays game until the final hooter......then and only then will he count the body parts and plan for Monday.
Always play your strongest team....it's what winners do. HKR are a nearly two weeks away....let them worry about coming here...where they have never beaten Harlequins Rugby League (or the Broncos in the league IIRC)

With Gafa, Wells and Orr all out, aren't we in a bit of trouble? A 17 something like this?

Melling
Sharp
Howell
Purdham
Clubb
Dorn
Gale
Temata
Randall
Ward
Robinson
Williamson
Mbu

Golden
Kaye
Heckenberg
LMS

I think I would trust the 19 on the Quins site, just. No Gale, which is a mystery to me, but then so was the dropping of Kaye.

IN BIG MAC WE TRUST!

The 19 on the Quins site was also originally on the Super League site (hence the "unchanged squad" text that follows). It changed on the SL site yesterday to what is there now - I'm guessing probably because Quins injuries have forced them to change the squad?

Thanks for that, Bikefan.

The current squad on the SL site has big Mick in it.......

Bring on the Nanyn, hope he gets a run out he might surprise a few with his quick feet and stunning pace (from 3 meters out)
