not sure the current level of praise is best for him even.

I think you're getting carried away. He's deservedly had praise from the likes of Kingston and Eddie but they've also made it clear that he has a long way to go. In fact I haven't seen much hyperbole about him at all. He's playing well in a mis-firing team and there's nothing wrong with pointing that out just because he's 18.

Suggestion on the Quins site that Horwill is out.

that would be a big loss for them, obstacle removed for us.

He's a really nice bloke for an Aussie. I went to the QoS recording when he was on and they did the video comparison between him scoring v wales and Usain Bolt winning a 100m race. Great show that. Bryony Page was on as well and Tuffers hadn't remembered her in a previous show.

Would Catrakilis play ahead of Smith. Not convinced

Absolutely. Quins didn't pay all that money for him to sit on the bench. Smith has been thrown in at the deep end and has done well but I'm sure he will be used more sparingly when Catrakilis is fit. Remember he's only a kid.

....a very, very talented kid.

Concerning to see the BT team pull apart our defensive structure in less than 5 minutes.

It's always pointed out by the Leicester Lip when we're on telly that we're very narrow.

and bent.

Better since Addison was injured.

sorry guys, our defensive system is just rubbish.

- caught out on 30 seconds and zero phases with a simple chip behind because we parked big forwards in the cnetres
- Ended up with faf defending the wing slot after 2 phases
- nearly got caught by another simple chip for phase 4
- poor tackle technique gifts penalty after 3 minutes.
- preposterously lucky not to give away a try after 4 minutes when caught narrow.....again

quins didnt do anything to pull it apart, it just unravels all on its own.

For those who aren't at the game, and haven't got access to BT Sport which is probably only me .....

what in hells name was solomona doing infield. We had a 4 on 2 defensive advantage, qith a fullback behind too, and he got one floated over his head. Ridiculous.

this is just a 20 minute s**t show. Once again behind the 8 ball before the game has really started.

Passive tackling when it needs ot be agressive, the knock on coach has been back in training and has added an effective intercept game to his repertoire.

Sides know exactly what then need to do to play against us, which in attack is just keep ball.

14 - 0 to Quins. Oh dear, this seems a little bit too easy them

Solomona is losing the battle vs visser somehow couldn't tackle him in build up to 2nd quins try

We can't expect to make 200 tackles in a match ( 50 after 20 minutes) and not leak tries .
Need to compete at the breakdown otherwise we will get thumped

24 mins gone

Quins 21 Sale 0

Oh dear, oh dear. Away from home again........
